Why is it so cold already? It's only October! heh... 55 degrees here...and it's probably 10 degrees less in my house. Eesh..freeeezing.
 
34 when I left for work this morning. Had to scrape off the frost before leaving.
 
I was SCUBA diving this past weekend at a quarry in eastern PA. At 70' is was about 50 degrees. Let me tell you. 50 degree water is a LOT colder than 50 degree air.


brrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrr..............
 
It was 54 here in Boston this morning when I did my morning run. The thing is, well at least for me, the cooler it is the harder I can work out so I didn't mind.

Go for it. You will not regret it.

Nothing better than getting out of the water and being 90% dry, especially if the air temp is cold as well.
Also watching everyone else freeze. 😀

Most likely you'd have a wet or dry suit, so you won't be that cold. And yes, we Californians do know about 50 degrees water, becuz it's like that here all year round (central cali and up)

You need to go to that lake in WV where the cooling units for a power company are located. At least 70 degrees year-round. Hold on, I'll check for the name.
