Which dam. If up by Truman and they are running water they would be putting cooler water in.
When I call the Lake of the Ozarks Daily Report 573-365-9205 their water temperature reading is always 4 to 8 degrees higher than what I get on my electronics or what an internet site says. I fish near the dam so idk why their temp varies so much from other readings. Anyone know why?

Temp today at lower side of Truman was 38-39° on the surface. When they
run water it pulls from deep water of Truman and will be a little warmer than
the surface water until it has a spring turnover.
Its because their reading is taken at around 3' down if I remember correctly. It's usually about 5 degrees higher for me during the winter and late fall
