Lake surface Temp

[carpedium]

I was perusing the Lake surface temps from the Michigan Sea Grant Page, and noticed that the surface temps are now in the 30's and 40's near Rochester... That's close to a 30 degree swing in a week. What does this mean for fishing, if anything... and would it have an effect on the salmon run?

Thanks,

That makes zero sense. Their system must have a glitch. I have heard of the lake 'turning over' - but that can't be right to get that cold. I'm sure there is a long discussion on the lake 'turning over' i'll have to find it...

I think you are looking at numbers that are affected by the clouds. The water temp is still around 60F.

When the chart is gray, it shows that the satellite beam is not getting a full signal bounced back to it. I.E. don't believe the gray areas.
