Will I be freezing in the pool in June?

My sister in law is from San Fran. She insists that it will be too cold at DLR to swim in early June. The pools look like they are heated. But are they warm? or just tolerable? My kids will swim in the Arctic but I am a different story. My mexican hot blood takes over. That is why I love Florida.

Opinions?

My kids, dh and I all went swimming in the HoJo pool last week.

All the resort and DL area pools are heated year round. No, I think June, should be just fine. . .

June is almost always one of the warmer times to swim. If you cannot handle Anaheim in June, you better stick to Florida or further south. The pools are heated and are all fun in their own way.

Have Fun

we went last May and we live in the desert where we think 80 is cool in the summer! It should be fine!

Sorry to sound dumb, but she has a San Fran perspective. I think they have different weather depending on which part of the house you are in.

Cheers ! Ana

We just swam at GCH last week. The pools are heated (although not as warm as I like them). The hard part isn't the swimming. It's the getting out of the pool.

We also swam in an outdoor pool in SF at Thanksgiving. It was heated and about 50 degrees outside. Believe me, you will be a lot more comfortable in Anaheim in June.

The nice thing about Anaheim is you can basically swim year round (well maybe not Dec and Jan). The weather is nice in June, you'll be fine.

Since we live in MA, it's just gotten cold the last couple days, we have had a very mild winter=we always go right into the pools, all the pools at the hotels are heated!
Everyone goes in, even when it's down to 40* degrees, people are on vacation-

enjoy your trip!

TO ALL!

It's always been more than warm enough for the pool, even at night, when we've gone mid-May.

My first instinct was to simply reply "ummm, no."
However, I know people's comfort levels are different, so I went to Weather.com to see what the averages are. Since you are going in early June, I thought I'd give you the May and June averages. May average highs are 75, June average high is 79. Even April's average high is 73, so there will be at least a couple months of pretty wam weather to heat the pools (more than the heating the motors provide) and a good chance of upper 70's temperature.
I understand where the San Fran people are coming from though, honestly, June would be a hit or miss for swimming up there. We went in August one year from Sacramento. In Sac. it was 88 degrees...so very hot. We went down to the pier in San Fran and had to buy sweatshirts, I kid you not, it was so cold. And damp. So. Cal. doesn't have the same vagaries of temperature that the Bay area has, so you should be just fine.

I think it was Mark Twain that said, "The coldest winter I ever spent was a summer in San Francisco.". I grew up there, and it is darn cold for being summer. Better in the early fall.
