...National Weather Service Cold Water Safety Message... * The warm air temperatures today into the middle 60s to near 70 degrees may cause people to underestimate the dangers of the cold water temperatures, which are currently only in the upper 40s across Sebago Lake and Lake Winnipesaukee, and in the upper 40s in the regions smaller lakes and rivers. * The cold water temperatures can quickly cause hypothermia to anyone immersed in the water. According to the US Coast Guard, when the water temperatures are below 50 degrees, the chance of immediate incapacitation due to cold shock is extremely high. Anyone on small boats, canoes, or kayaks should plan accordingly if recreating and use extreme caution to avoid this threat. Paddle smart from the start and always wear your life jacket! * Strong winds are also expected with gusts up to 25 mph from the southwest. If boating on large bodies of water, these strong winds can increase the likelihood of overturning your boat, canoe, or kayak due to increased wave heights.
