We had our first official “snow swim” yesterday. Everything was clear when I got there at 6:40am, but the flurries started around 7:00am, giving us some nice in-swim aesthetics. The perfectly calm lake gave us a surprise with a 44F mercury reading – the first time we’ve been below 50F since last April. Nevertheless, this was still superior to the 32F air temperature (afterdrop notwithstanding)!
