And None of us had a problem being in a pool in June growing up..cuz we were kids. Lol. Grew up in a NNJ lake community and there was always bragging rights for 1st guy (always a guy) taking a swim. [I chose not to compete. ] Usually would occur with the first 80+ afternoon in mid-late April, when the water temp was about 47°. In 1987 temps were warm to hot on Memorial Day weekend - PWM hit 94 on 5/31. Visited friends in Wells and went to Wells Beach. Fog had rolled in, cutting temps by 25°, but the kids wanted to swim in the (45-50°) ocean anyway. 9-year-old daughter slipped off a barnacled rock and scraped her leg, couldn't feel it until 10 minutes later when warmed up, and the salt water tested her nerve endings. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Every now and again you get a bad day, but it’s generally summer. You are completely wrong. What is it with people trying fight and fend off summer? Like making shit up just because they don’t like summer . June is deep summer I wish my pool was warm enough to comfortably swim by Memorial Day. We are typically just barely able to use it by June 15-20 even with a solar cover. Takes a ton of energy to heat water. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

WxWatcher007 Posted March 26, 2022 Share Posted March 26, 2022 All I choose to remember about April are Spring Weekend 2008 and especially 2009 at UConn. I believe 2009 was the one that had deep summer feel. But it was certainly spring like in ‘08. Oozeball on the South Quad, Sundresses as far as the eye could see, and sweat dripping during beer pong and dancing. Those were the days. I’ll never forget the dress my now wife wore during that second spring weekend, and how I practically gave up drinking that Sunday morning after way too much rum. Never got close to X Lot. That’s April to me. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

TauntonBlizzard2013 Posted March 26, 2022 Share Posted March 26, 2022 Lol at some Of the posts in here. It’s definitely greening up in a lot of SNE. It hasn’t been a bad March, all things considered. We were swimming in my family pool before Memorial Day most years growing up. Maybe if you like the water 80+, it’s not great, but otherwise, meh, it’s good to go.

Boston in April can chill you to the bone. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Remind me to take a pic of my pool thermo this upcoming Memorial Day. The pool also doesn’t get the best sun, so that is part of it. Some friends of ours here in town have a nice inground pool that they typically open that weekend though. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
powderfreak Posted March 27, 2022 Share Posted March 27, 2022 Winter on the upper mountain, spring down low these days. It's that time of year. 4 inches have fallen on the upper mountain, while a 0.4" coating (from last night's diurnal minimum) melted fast today back to stick season and leaf litter down low. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

dendrite Posted March 27, 2022 Share Posted March 27, 2022 I’m not getting near a pool in May without a heater. I feel like our true seasons line up well with the astrological ones. Deep winter is gone by 3/21, consistent summer temps by 6/21, first 30s around 9/21, and the pack establishing by 12/21. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
