Kenner Pool Season: the Year on One Bar
Last updated: July 15, 2026 · dates · water temp
Kenner's whole pool calendar, condensed: when the water warms, when it cools, and where today falls between those edges. Use the opening guide and closing guide for the step-by-step work; keep this page for the dates.
The bar compresses Kenner's whole pool year into one lane rope: gray floats for the off-season, hollow teal for the February 9–March 2 opening window, solid teal for swim weeks, hollow amber for the closing stretch that ends November 30. Wherever the today marker sits, the nearest color change is your next appointment.
The Kenner pool calendar
Opening — target February 16
Target February 16; the practical window runs February 9–March 2, and the 7-day mean crosses the 61°F threshold around March 2. Cold-water starts are the cheap ones.
Closing — deadline November 30
Hold the cover until November 20, then winterize by November 30, a week ahead of the December 31 freeze normal. Late and cold beats early and warm.
Estimated water temperature by month
This is Kenner's typical-year water curve: the same EWMA model as the live widget, run on the 1991–2020 normals instead of this week's weather.
| Jan | Feb | Mar | Apr | May | Jun | Jul | Aug | Sep | Oct | Nov | Dec |
|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|
| 55° | 56° | 61° | 67° | 74° | 80° | 83° | 84° | 83° | 77° | 67° | 59° |
Warmest water typically June–September (peaking near 84°F); heaters and covers shift any month up.
