What is considered a to cold a temperature to swim in?

Answer 1

i would probably say less than 70 degrees but just an estimate.... one day for practice the pool was less than 70... coldest water ever! practice had to be cancelled cuz the little ones were at risk for hypothermia

Answer 2

Please do not swim in cold water it is extremely dangerous in certain tempartures and can lead to hypothermia and eventually death please take my advice because i dont want any one getting hurt because of this extremely cold hazard

Answer 3

Under 50 degrees is dangerous since at those temperatures, your core body temperature can drop too low too quickly. This is called cold shock, which can cause a heart attack or unconsciousness which can lead to drowning. In the summer, having the water feel somewhat cool is refreshing, but care should still be taken for babies and adults with medical conditions.

Answer 4

It is a matter of personal preference. Your body temperature is 98.6 F. The lower the temperature of your pool water below that, the more heat it pulls from your body and the higher the likelihood of Hypothermia.

Answer 5

It is recommended that for children the temperature in a swimming pool be 82 to 86 degrees Fahrenheit. For babies the recommended temperature should be 84 to 86 degrees.

Answer 6

Under 78 degrees would be too cold. The perfect temperature for leisure swimming would be 80 to 81 degrees.
