Water Temp Question

AC2717 · 05-20-2019, 08:54 AM

Hi
Anyone have a read on the water temp? any of you fisherman out this weekend make note?
Winni.com water temp reading last done last Monday and Black Cat does not have a reading

thank you

It's a pretty consistent 49 degrees everywhere I was.

Cold for this time of year but the lack of sun, lots of rain, wind and generally cold air temps has kept the water from really warming up much. Usually we'd be in the mid to upper 50's by now.

Fishing was also pretty slow.

Didn't stop at least one group of die hards out there wake surfing.

The water temperature this morning at East Bear Island is 52 degrees. 🐻

Out Sunday afternoon, saw temps from 49 to 58. 49 toward main lake, 58 on sunny protected rocky flat.
Saw NOTHING going on shallow.

58° at 20" in Moultonborough Bay Saturday.

Merrymeeting was stuck in the 40's forever, but now that we are finally getting some solar gain, it's been on the rise. Came close to hitting 60 for the first time yesterday (59.5). But cool night and winds mixed things up again. Now at 55.5 (3 feet down, under my dock)

Starting to see consistent 65+ degree temps during the day. I think today could be the day it goes above 70 for the first time this year. Albeit probably won't stay there during the cold nights.

Fortified with reports from Barney Bear and Merrymeeting, I took my first dip into Moultonboro Bay. It was great! Summer is here!

Merrymeeting · 06-09-2019, 06:44 PM

Didn't quite make it. 69 at 7:32 PM, and dropping. Definitely tomorrow

Barney Bear · 06-14-2019, 05:35 AM

With strong southeast winds stirring up the lake, the water temperature at East Bear Island is down to 62 degrees on Flag Day. 🇺🇸

So much for my prediction abilities. Reached 69 again, then dropped with the cold. Now sitting at 64.7.

For those wondering, this is on Merrymeeting, about 3' down, under my dock. I've found over the years that my readings and those on Winni track very closely.

On the first day of summer, the water temperature at East Bear Island is 67 degrees. Let the fun begin! 🐻

On the first day of July, the water temperature at East Bear Island is 69 degrees. Neighbors are on their paddle boards. Vacation time is here! 🏄*♀️ 🏄🏻 🏊🏼*♀️ 🏊🏽

fatlazyless · 07-01-2019, 10:06 AM

Did you know that July 1 is very similar to January 1 ...... all that separates is exactly six months.

Had the defroster heat on in the car this morning at 5:20-am to warm it up and clear the windshield ...... was 52-degrees outside ...... that's New Hampshire!

Orion · 07-01-2019, 01:45 PM

74 degrees 4' down at Cow Island early this morning.

ApS · 07-06-2019, 12:49 PM

Neighbors reporting Jet Ski temps 77- 79.

Severe weather warning for next seven hours.

Been watching this for several days, so there may be something to it.

Barney Bear · 07-06-2019, 01:22 PM

The water temperature at -18" at East Bear Island this morning was 77 degrees. 🐻

I just wanted to point out that on the bottom of the www.beachtemp.us page you can also get lake temperature profiles form the top to the bottom of the lake, its not obvious since this tool is under development at the moment, for Winnipesaukee, see:
