...National Weather Service Cold Water Safety Message...

* Temperatures this Holiday weekend may cause people to
  underestimate the dangers of the cold water temperatures which are
  currently only in the mid 50s across Sebago Lake and Lake
  Winnipesaukee, and in the mid 50s in the regions smaller lakes and
  rivers.

* The cold water temperatures can quickly cause hypothermia to
  anyone immersed in the water. When the water temperature is below
  60 degrees, the average submerged person could loose dexterity
  within minutes and be unable to accomplish simple tasks. Anyone
  on small boats, canoes, or kayaks should plan accordingly if
  recreating this weekend and use extreme caution to avoid this
  threat. Paddle smart from the start and always wear your life
  jacket!

* Winds will be breezy this afternoon with some gusts up to 25 mph
  across parts of the area. If boating on large bodies of water,
  these strong winds can increase the likelihood of overturning
  your boat, canoe, or kayak due to increased wave heights.
