open lake forecast for lake michigan
national weather service milwaukee/sullivan wi
304 pm cdt fri jul 24 2026

for waters beyond five nautical miles of shore on lake michigan.

waves are provided as a range of significant wave heights, which
is the average of the highest 1/3 of the wave, along with the
average height of the highest 10% of the waves which will
occasionally be encountered.

.synopsis...

gusty southerly winds are expected across all of lake michigan
through saturday as a low pressure averaging 29.5 inches 
approaches from the northern plains. gusts up to 30 knots are 
expected over the north half. a frontal boundary will stall over 
the upper great lakes, mainly over wisconsin and lake michigan, 
through most of monday. this will result in increasing 
thunderstorm chances with severe storms possible. very warm, moist
and unstable air flowing over the relatively cool waters may 
cause patchy marine fog early next week. 

northerly winds are expected monday night through wednesday as 
high pressure of 29.9 inches builds over the upper great lakes. 
look for southerly winds and more unsettled weather to resume 
thursday into the next weekend.
