It was around 60 degrees just below 20 ft. I didn't drop below 25 feet long enough to get a good reading. The surface was in the mid 70s. Change in water temps start to be noticable at about 18 ft.

It is supposed to be mid-upper 80's all week so it will start to warm a bit.

Water temps at BS typically max out around early to mid September. It will then cool off pretty quickly.

Was in the high 40s on the bottom a couple weekends ago.

That probably won't change much down around 50 ft. Typically the temp that deep never exceeds about 48 degress. However, it does drop to around 40 in the winter. The coldest I have ever seen was 39 under the ice back in January 2001. The surface will probably hit mid 80s in early September. At that time the first thermocline will probably be a little less than 25 ft. The nice thing about BS is when you do a cold dive, ascending to 20 feet then feels like a hot tub. Very relaxing.

Heh pretty funny too, that one could consider 70 degree water like a hottub, but that's the way it feels.
