Ambient air power loss

When is 110 degrees on the lake, how much power loss or MPH loss do you get? N/A engines. How much can I expect? Water temp around 88 degrees

Supply elevation above sea level, barometric pressure, and humidity and I can give you the figure.

Expect 1%hp loss per 10*F rise in inlet air temps...assuming engine is tuned correctly for the weather change.
