Ours is at 71 in central Ohio I will be finishing the heat pump tonight and with luck we will be swimming buy Saturday. 
Heated ours from 75 to 82 on the 6th and it has maintained 77-80 even with the 5" of rain we have had this week.
FC has been fine due to the SWG (yes it seems fine Sean). Ph in check. Have'nt bothered even checking CH, TA , CYA or salt as I know they are off and need adjusted. Maybe the rain will end soon. It's supposed to be a nice weekend.

84 unheated yesterdy! Had a nice late afternoon swim and then soaked in the hot tub for awhile.
We've been getting in just about everyday now.

We have gotten close to 80 but just wont go above. Temps. here in south Mississippi are mid 80s day and 60ish at night. Kids have been swimming for a couple of weeks --I went in for the first time last weekend.
Cold snap just hit here in Atlantic Canada....had pool up to 72..now its down to 55...waaaaaaaaaa
83 in the pool....90 and humid outside...yesterday was perfect for swimming!!!
shew...summer is finally here

I checked into my temps while swimming this weekend. Sunday @ 12PM my pool hit 91 F. Looks like it is time to get out the fountain sprayers (aerators) to bring the temps down some.
We were still at 90 last night around 7pm - not sure what the high for the day was.

Same readings here just a few miles west of you, and yes, it's FINALLY here! Been in the pool all weekend
We just have the cheapie therm that came with our kit for the pool. (The Baquacil kit-that I never used!- ,LOL)
Anyway, looks to be around 80ish. And I've been complaining it's too cold.
Although I have noticed it is starting to stay noticeably warmer since filling it 2-1/2 weeks ago.
I'm going to have to go get some kind of digital therm or something so I can tell what the actual exact temp is.
(I do know the last several days it has been just *perfect* from about 12:00-6:00......surprised at how much it can cool overnight though!)
Plus, we've had verrry mild temps for this time of year here so far. (Southeast coast of Virginia)

Not everyone, but we do seem to be well represented!
Finally my water is staying above 80. . . I've found about 83-85 to be pret' near perfect. Got the temp up to 87 once and it seemed just a little too warm. Around 83 or so it's cool enough to be refreshing without being chilly.
Today I decided not to bother running the solar; the water this morning was about 83. Ahhhh. . .
Mosquitoes are a serious problem tho. . . I need to look into that misting system!!

Between the cold rain dumping 9" into my pool in the last 2 weeks, a cold snap two nights in a row and our solar panels either not getting any sun, then having a leak issue so not running water through them - we had been down to 68/70deg as of Saturday afternoon. We finally got the panels going good again yesterday about noon AND got some sun!!! YAY!!!!! The pool was up to 76deg by 4pm and it was 86deg out there in the sun yesterday. It looks to be warm today so I am hoping to see the 80s in our pool very soon. My 14yr old swam a lot this weekend Brrr and I DID jump in for about 5mins but a bit too chilly for me yet.
Ours has been running about 82 and over in central Va. Beautiful! By the way, what is this aerating you folks talk about?
waterbug, it's a way to cool down the pool water by using a fountain or some other means to get the water into the air to help bring the temp down. Good discussion here:
