lake temperature

On Wednesday (June 4), during UNH sponsored water quality sampling, the surface temperatures in the north-east part of the lake ranged from 67 (near Geneva Point) to 69 at States Landing to 70.5 in Greens Basin. The thermocline (where the water gets chilly) ranged from 5 feet in Greens Basin to almost 15 deep near Geneva Point. Bottom temperatures (for you scuba-duba divers) ranged from 54, near Suissevalle to a chilly 45 at the bottom of Greens Basin. By September, the thermocline normally disappears at the sampling locations, which are 25-30 feet deep.

Less frigid water temps combined with the 80's forecast for the weekend should bring out the boat traffic!
