Swim Feel (experimental)
Swim Feel combines the latest measured water temperature (shown above, never changed) with forecast air temperature, wind, cloud and an estimated sun strength. It is an uncalibrated comfort guide, not a safety rating, and it is separate from water-quality advisories. No score is shown without a valid measured water reading less than 48 hours old. Weather: MET Norway Locationforecast, CC BY 4.0. Model lake-swim-feel-0.1.0.

No AHS blue-green algae advisory for this lake was listed when we checked on 2026-10-28. That does not mean the water is safe.
