After spending much of the months of May & June running well below average, Lake Ontario is in the midst of an impressive turnaround. Average water temps today are now near peak warmth based on 30-year data (1995-2025). Lake Erie is doing the same. Climatologically, Lake Ontario tends to peak somewhere in the month of August.
