It’s officially — BATH WATER WARM — in western Lake Erie. A buoy near the Toledo Crib measured a water temperature of 82.4°F (28°C) with another buoy offshore of Port Clinton measuring an astounding 83.1°F (28.4°C). As of Saturday, July 5th these are the warmest water temperatures in the entire Great Lakes.
By contrast, the water off Isle Royale in northern Lake Superior is still a chilly 39°F (4°C)!

In Cleveland, just dip in a Lipton and it's almost ready.
