39-degrees......just phoned the Lakeport Dam 527-0071 at 7:40am, and the recorded message says water temp at the dam outflow is 39-degrees.

As far as surviving an accidental plunge into icy cold water......did you know that an individual can survive up to 15-minutes in the icy cold water, over one's head, before losing body control....as long as you survive the initial plunge without gasping in a lot of water....if you ever fall overboard.....simply hold your hand over your mouth to avoid the water gasp syndrome that can cause a drowning in about one very painfull choking, gasping minute.....cough....cough....cough.....
