Victoria Pool Season: the Year on One Bar
Last updated: July 15, 2026 · dates · water temp
This is the one-page view of Victoria's pool year: both model windows, the estimated water-temperature curve, and today's live position on the season bar. The detailed checklists live on the opening and closing guides; this page is the calendar you check between them.
Reading it takes ten seconds: 52 dots, one per week. Solid teal is Victoria's swim season; the hollow teal run before it (February 9 to March 2) is when to open; the hollow amber run after is when to close, with November 30 as the deadline; gray is the covered season. Today's marker shows where you stand in that cycle right now.
The Victoria pool calendar
Opening — target February 16
Open by February 16 — a two-week head start on the March 2 crossing keeps startup chemistry small and beats the local service rush.
Closing — deadline November 30
The window opens November 20 once water leaves the algae zone; the model deadline is November 30, a week ahead of the December 9 freeze normal.
Estimated water temperature by month
This is Victoria'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 |
|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|
| 54° | 55° | 61° | 66° | 73° | 80° | 83° | 85° | 82° | 76° | 67° | 59° |
Warmest water typically June–September (peaking near 85°F); heaters and covers shift any month up.
