August 11,2008-Palm Beach Inlet-83F. This is definitely cool for us at this time of year.

What you look for is what is looking

Galveston Channel - 87.1F, probably about normal.

Steve

USDA Zone 9a/b, AHS Heat Zone 9, Sunset Zone 28

49'/14m above sea level, 25mi/40km to Galveston Bay

Long-term average rainfall 47.84"/1215mm

Near-term (7yr) average rainfall 55.44"/1410mm

Our water temp is 66-69F based on Del Mar surf report.

Which is why I prefer hiking in the local mountains, and never took up surfing.

Zone 9b/10a, Sunset Zone 22

7 miles inland. Elevation 120ft (37m)

Average annual low temp: 30F (-1C)

Average annual rainfall: 8" (20cm)

Along the coast 19-20C/66.2-68F

Biarritz Today 73°. In summer generally between 70° and 73°

Winter low around 54°

On South facing hill. Elevation 220m/720 feet. Lat 43°N.

Average Temp: Jan 3°C/11°C 38°F/52°F Jul 15°C/26°C 59°F/79°F

Min/max Temp 24 years period: -8°C/40°C 17.6°F/104°F

Heat Zone 3. Rainfall 1130 mm/44,5". No dry season. Sunshine 1950 hours.

It's been warmer than average near me all winter. It's just starting to get closer to average now at the end of winter, but the ocean further out has just warmed up a lot. It's going to make spring /summer/autumn especially interesting because in about a month it will all warm up again, but it will have a 1 or 2C head start, which in weather terms is a whole lot. It's approx 20C 68F at the moment.

Here off the coast of Port Macquarie Australia its quite cold at 66.5F even colder as you get closer to the coast, I was fishing offshore about 8km, lots of whales returning to the south polar region.

Extreme Low    : 10-20f/day,    0-10f / night   but VERY RARE

Galveston Channel, 88.7F. Galveston Pleasure Pier (beachwater), 91F. Food for hurricanes, unfortunately.

Near-term (7yr) average rainfall 55.44"/1410mm

Not sure if the water temp drop around here is due to Gustav sucking the energy out of the Gulf or not, but when I checked the water temp 2 days ago, it was 91F. This morning it looks to have plummeted to 82F.

St. Petersburg Pier - 80.3F

No one cares about your current yard temperature 🙃

After the ocean temp here being higher than average for all of last year, and especially through winter, in late Sept, early Oct it began to cool rapidly and was lower than average. In the past couple of weeks though, the entire eastern Indian Ocean has rapidly warmed to be warmer than average now by about 2C. The ocean temp off the coast here is 21-22C. I don't know what will happen if the rapid warming trend continues in summer and the cyclone season. It could be an interesting wet and humid summer I'd think.

water temperature east pacific and sea of cortez, baja california méxico and california usa. normal for november.

you can see good in the images how the warm current goes north by the coast of baja california to area of los angeles. north of los angeles stops the current and the oceans always much more cold. los angeles is the most far north limit for many warm water ocean fish. these are normal circulations.

Not sure what the exact temp was, but I went swimming in the Gulf last weekend. The water was cool but not bone shivering cold....maybe ~70F? However, Im not sure Id try it today as this nasty front is coming through.......

The nearest large body of water to me has a current sea surface temperature of 9°C/48°F, which I guess is not as bad as when I went diving in March 2004 and it was 3°C/37°F. That was a little nippy.
