Just visited the buoy for North Lake Huron....

Note the water temp.... 36 F

All that ice on Great Lakes this winter is likely going to make the normally brrrrrrr swiming near impossible.

That's not brrrrrrr... That's OUCH! I've felt water like that in Lake Superior--it hurts! Fall into it, and you probably have about 30 seconds of consciousness.

Hey Arlyn,

I'm heading up there in three weeks. We have had a very cool wet spring here and though it has been hot in other parts of the country here in the upper Midwest we have been maintaining out winter pattern.
Just without the snow. I do hope it warms up some.
let me know when you get up there. I monitor ch 16 when in canadian waters and call marinas on 68. By mid July I'll be on the Island and could email you the phone # there if you like.

let me know when you plan on sailing there and we can try to link up.

Freezing here in Ohio,
