The illustration above is quite fascinating as it shows the temperatures of all the major lakes in North America and the patterns of changes in surface temperature.The shape of the graph is similar to a normal distribution with around 68% of the data within 1 standard deviation.The highest surface temperature seems to be around 25 ° C.

Fun Fact:These massive Lakes act like heat sinks moderating temperatures of the surrounding land.Great to be around during those harsh winters!

A lake carries you into recesses of feeling otherwise impenetrable. -William Wordsworth
