Up to 32C now what with all this current heat.

Pool is holding 30C at midnight at the mo too.

Nothing like a midnight dip! ...

Pool is up to 29c and holding, highest last summer was 28c.

Pool is 12m x 6m and averages 1.5m deep, so around 110,000 litres. Takes a lot to heat it up, next three days are forecast hot so it may get to 30c.

To be honest 29c is too warm, feels like swimming in a tepid bath, need it around 26c to actually feel cooled down!

Yeah I've only got 45,000 litres to heat and the max depth is 6', but I still like it above 30C

Admittedly I'm awaiting an operation on one of my arms and the other isn't much better so can only swim a little at most. OH does 200 - 250 lengths every other day at the mo. The pools only 6m long and it's still over an hours swimming, but she says after say 50 lengths it's already feeling warmer than she's like, and she won't get into it till it's 26/27C at best! ...

After a few high 30's here the pool temp is now 32.5C and def a new record.

I spent an few hours yesterday arvo moving a couple of Golden Canes and lost a stone in sweat, but having the pool next to me for 'every 10 min' cool downs was glorious!

Couldn't of done it without and spent the last few hours of my time outside just chillin in the pool, was like a bath and warmer in that out!

Hovering between 31C & 32C today, like a bath and no doubt too warm for some, just not me! ...
