Mostly around 41 to 42. I did find a few pockets back in the bays that were as high as 45. Hope this helps. :D

I hate to say it cause I go to that site all the time but it hasn't been updated in quit some time. I has been showing Ky. Lake at 48 for 2 months. It's wrong. The link that Casy posted is the most reliable. :D

Here is another one.......

The Kentuckylake.com site shows 43 and 42 for me. You might need to refresh the page with a SHIFT+Refresh to get it to update on your computer.

Hey Hillbilly,

The Murray State web site listed above by Drew http://www.murraystate.edu/qacd/cos/hbs/WQ.cfm is by far the most current. Often within an hour or two of current time. The "Lake Conditions" site on Kentucky Lake Online is a site that shows TVA info and is often off several days. I have seen the water temp on the TVA site vary by 5 degrees or even more from actual water temps. The Murray State web site is also a great site for current lake elevations and weather conditions. Don't get me wrong, I promote Kentucky Lake Online, I am the forums moderator but the lake conditions are just slow to react. This afternoon in sunshine water temps were above 45. Now with cloud cover and rainfall it has dropped back to 44.44 degrees at the surface. It also give subsurface info at 2.313 meters and also includes information like dissolved oxygen, PH and turbidity.
