Mine had the pump on so it's the real mixed temp, not just the top 2cm.

Got the keys to new house today and the pool felt easily warm enough. Does have solar heating but have no idea if it is on...or even how to check

Ok, now you've got solar heating and I don't, yet we're geographically not far at all. I'll be wanting to see your temps higher than mine once we start getting some regular sun ...

What IS the temp of your pool now, and are you in it yet?

This way not yet, pool temp is hovering around the 20C and peaked last week at 23C with the sun on it for a few days.

I've said i'll be in by end of the month ...

My pool is rain temperature now and very green/brown.

Emptying it again now. That's about 25 cm so far since last night at least as it was already overflowing this morning..

Well I stuck me hand in recently and it didn't feel cold. Didn't feel super warm either, but with a bit of a warm up i'd be in.

Not holding breath tho!
