It's starting to get too cold to swim, but now we are getting into the perfect hot tub weather!
Who's still swimming?
- Thread starter lulupalooza
- Start date
We're done. Took the solar cover off Monday- pool temp dropped 10 degrees in 48 hours- guess it was time. The solar cover had kept the water around 80 degrees, and air temps were in the 80's, but we had some fierce winds, so the water felt cold- that and I'm a wimp. We swam daily up until last week. Now it is time for yardwork, landscape around the pool, install a solar heater- get ready for next year swimming.
Looked at hot tubs while at the state fair-never though I would want one, but now that I am used to swimming every day? Hmmm.

We actually had SNOW today in central New Jersey...SNOW!!!
Yes, that means pool season is now, finally, irrevocably over....(here).

Our pool is at 45. My wife is daring me to go in, I think I just might, but I'm not jumping in the deep end, that's for sure!

There have been seasons when I kept exercising in the pool until the temperature dropped to 55, but this year I stopped when it got down to 60 about 10 days ago. One winter when I left the pool uncovered, we had a warm stretch in January with air temps in the 70's for several days. Pool water got up to about 48 and two of my sons jumped in and swam a lap fully submerged. Not for me!
After a cool October, water temperature today is 57 - still debating about whether or not to put on the cover, either just for leaf season or for the entire winter . . .
