Clearwater Pool Season: the Year on One Bar
Last updated: July 15, 2026 · dates · water temp
No opening date, no closing deadline: Clearwater's season bar below is one long swim window with a comfort gradient. The spring refresh and winter care pages hold the practical checklists for a pool that never sleeps; this page is the dashboard that says which of them applies today.
Each dot is one week of Clearwater's year, and here they're all solid teal — the model finds no off-season to draw. What varies instead is comfort: the water table below shows the seasonal range from 62°F to 84°F, and the today marker tells you where in that cycle you're standing. Maintenance follows the same curve — heavier through the 211-day prime stretch, lighter but never zero through winter.
The Clearwater pool calendar
Spring refresh
The model finds no closing week in Clearwater — maintenance is continuous, with a 211-day prime stretch of 80°F+ afternoons.
Winter care
No forced dates: the 7-day mean never leaves the swim-viable range (floor 61.2°F). Spring refresh and winter care replace opening and closing.
Estimated water temperature by month
Monthly averages of the site's water model run on Clearwater's own normals — the shape of a typical year, not a forecast. The widget above shows where the current year actually sits.
| Jan | Feb | Mar | Apr | May | Jun | Jul | Aug | Sep | Oct | Nov | Dec |
|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|
| 62° | 62° | 66° | 71° | 76° | 81° | 83° | 83° | 83° | 80° | 72° | 66° |
Warmest water typically June–October (peaking near 84°F); heaters and covers shift any month up.
