open lake forecast for lake superior
national weather service marquette mi
400 pm edt thu jun 25 2026
for waters beyond 5 nautical miles of shore on lake superior.
waves are the significant wave height - the average of the
highest 1/3 of the wave spectrum. occasional wave height is the
average of the highest 1/10 of the wave spectrum.
.synopsis...
a 29.9 inch low currently tracking through lower michigan continues
towards the st. lawrence seaway tonight into friday. as it leaves
the upper midwest, expect weak 30.0 inch ridging to return to lake
superior today, building to 30.1 inches by friday morning and
remaining that way into at least sunday morning. meanwhile late this
weekend, a 29.2 inch low lifts from the rockies towards the northern
plains and canadian prairies, eventually becoming a 29.0 inch low
spinning over the canadian prairies by tuesday morning. expect this
to cause progressively deepening troughing over lake superior early
next week, with the troughing over the lake becoming 29.8 inches by
tuesday morning.
