Current index calculated from verified local atmospheric, hydrographic & alert inputs.
Poor for swimming (48/100), from 5 available inputs. Supporting this: No active official alerts for this lake. 0% chance of precipitation. Working against it: Measured water temperature 58°F from a representative gauge 35.8 mi away. Provisional data. Cold water hazard: thermal protection recommended below 60°F. Air temperature 56°F. Water temperature is 58°F (below 60°F). Immersion requires thermal protection. Confidence is moderate (75%) because some inputs are unavailable or older than ideal.
