What are people seeing around the inner gulf / Kawau / Tiri / Rakino areas?
I’m seeing about 19.3C on my gauge but it feels a bit colder than that. And I know the standard (Airmar?) sensors are notoriously dodgy and lose temp calibration easily.

Kawau this weekend was registering around 20 deg (also from not very accurate fishfinder), but it was pretty brisk when I jumped in for the daily dip! |

My newly installed transducer was giving me 19 deg at Tiri today, dropping to 18 coming back up towards the Weiti River.
Has dropped from 21/22 degs in late summer.
I don't think the water is cold yet. The air can be cold without the sun, but the sun is still hot (this weekend was a cracker). I've only recently changed to my 2/3 steamer for windsurfing / surfing. Was just using longjohns & rashshirt up until a few weeks ago.
Had two snorkels at Tiri this weekend in the 2/3 steamer and it was fine, I thought I'd need my 3/4.
But I do suspect we are at the point in the year where the water temp will turn shortly.
