About these readings

Ocean beaches use satellite sea-surface analysis (marine data via Open-Meteo); the Great Lakes use NOAA's daily lake-surface analysis (GLSEA). Great Lakes beaches, the Okanagan and the Northumberland Strait off PEI and New Brunswick are warmest in August, while the open Pacific coast stays cool all summer.

A reading describes the surface a short distance offshore, so shallow bays can be warmer and wind can bring up colder water overnight.
