There is probably something on this site with water temps...but I know stormcarib.com has a map for it, once you click on the sat map. A tourist told me yesterday that it is warm enough at fairly shallow depths to not be refreshing at all...but it's real pretty!

Here is something a little more official...scroll down for coastal water temps.

Yikes, 86!

I wish it was warm here. Each week the days vary from 20C one day to 5C the next. It is getting really annoying, how come it just wont stay at a warm temperature?

The reason your area (and much of the northeastern U.S.) has seen lower than normal temperatures is due to the current negative NAO setup and other related, influencing factors.

San Juan, PR 86 °F / 30.0 °C

This seems quite high.

Yes, it is, but it is rather typical in many years. I have observed this pattern in many past years, including last year. Sun angle is getting higher, too.

Very wet cloudy and cool here this last week. Haven't had a high above 66 F all week. We have had 2.36 Inches of rain (over half our May average) between Tuesday and Friday. 1.18 Inch of that in a six hour period on Friday. Funny think is that is the most one day melted down precipitation we received since February.

Been pretty nice here too. Past two days has been 93 all week forecast for 93-96 been like this for the whole month except a cold front that came through here in tampa. Seems a little high but around normal for this time of year. Just way too dry.

And the Toronto region saw wind gusts in excess of 60 km/h today, spotty rain showers mixing with ice pellets (graupel)... i was in one of them around 1015am this morning!

Temp. at mid afternoon was just plus 7C 44F, but with the wind...OOO so much colder. (unseasonable even for Canadians)
So anyone tired of the heat... just come up here to Canada!
woohoo.
