It's been in the low 80s for a few weeks now.
 
LakeMonster.com has a neat thermal plot of your local lakes......Here's what Patoka looks like. No idea where the data comes from.

Our other local lake (Taylorsville) is looking to be in better shape!

Same temp here in Raleigh....too cold for me! (70-72) But the kids are asking to go tubing!

And Lakemonster.com's temp is 12-14 degrees low....not sure why they are so far off....but when you scroll down their page they have it correct below in a graph....
 
Funny you should ask. In the data below the sensor is at 88'. That is above sea level. Low water mark is at 93' and current level is 99.29'. 100' is considered flood stage.

Current conditions in the hills above the Valley.

Brrrrrrrrrrrr…. Fishing only water temp
 
We’re at water temps 71-74 deg. Chill for 1 min then fairly pleasant. Wife still makes faces when dipping the rear end in ??
 
73 on Lake Martin
 
Cross Lake (NY) water temp is 47 today. Neighbors and I are trying to decide if it's going to be warm enough to put the dock and lifts in this weekend...
 
It was 78 Monday in Tampa Bay!
 
Trent river is 74 degrees right now
 
50 degrees or so in all the lakes I boat at?
 
Upper 60’s lower 70’s for us. Daughter and I tubed and got thrown in. It was cold lol
 
49F today. It rarely gets above 70F and swimming here (Long island, NY) requires a few beers.
