The Lake Ontario water temperature is taken at the
Monroe county water treatment plant near Greece, N.Y. The temperatures
is measured at the intake pipes about 1500 feet offshore at a
approximate depth of 35 feet. The Lake Ontario temperature
occasionally may not be representative of the surface temperature due to
upwelling. This process, more common during the summer months, brings
colder water from the deeper parts of the lake toward the surface near
the temperature sensor. The surface water may be significantly
warmer.
