Provo Pool Season: the Year on One Bar
Last updated: July 15, 2026 · dates · water temp
One bar, one year, one Provo pool. The season bar below draws everything the model knows — opening window, prime season, closing window — against today's date, with the working details one click away on the opening and closing pages.
Reading it takes ten seconds: 52 dots, one per week. Solid teal is Provo's swim season; the hollow teal run before it (April 24 to May 15) is when to open; the hollow amber run after is when to close, with October 10 as the deadline; gray is the covered season. Today's marker shows where you stand in that cycle right now.
The Provo pool calendar
Opening — target May 1
Open by May 1 — a two-week head start on the May 15 crossing keeps startup chemistry small and beats the local service rush.
Closing — deadline October 10
Hold the cover until September 30, then winterize by October 10, a week ahead of the October 21 freeze normal. Late and cold beats early and warm.
Estimated water temperature by month
Monthly averages of the site's water model run on Provo'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 |

| 32° | 34° | 43° | 50° | 57° | 67° | 76° | 79° | 73° | 61° | 48° | 37° |
Warmest water typically August–August (peaking near 80°F); heaters and covers shift any month up.
