So is this Seabrook Station responsible for the oceans getting > warmer .... which is gunna flood all the best beaches?? A little warm in that part of the ocean wouldn't be a bad thing. The temperature peaks out in August at about 62 F (16 C) and is lowest in March at 37 F (3 C). A lot of the lobster men can't swim. They figure if you fall in and can't get back in the boat you're going to die. The rule of thumb is you have a 50% chance of surviving 50 minutes in 50 degree water. Locals know the shallow spots where the water warms up a little more but the area isn't conducive to the California surfer culture without a decent wet suit. Another problem from New Hampshire north is you're more likely to find scenic rock bound coast than sand. The winter storms tend to carry it away.
