open lake forecast for lake superior
national weather service marquette mi
400 am edt sat may 23 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... 

lake superior is currently between a 30.6 inch high over quebec and 
a pair of 29.9 inch lows, one south of the michigan lower peninsula 
and one over the east half of the dakotas. through today, the lows 
weaken to remnant 30.0 inch troughs over the upper great lakes while 
the high shifts over nova scotia. sunday, lake superior will be 
between the high, now off the canada coast, and broad 29.6 inch low 
pressure over saskatchewan. a 30.1 inch ridge forms monday over the 
lower great lakes as the low retreats to alberta. monday night, a 
29.8 inch trough will be over northern ontario, with the high slowly 
moving southeast tuesday. by tuesday night, a 30.2 inch high over 
the western shores of hudson bay will extend weak ridging over lake 
superior with 29.4 inch troughing forming in the lee of the northern 
us rockies. pressure rises over the lake as the high shifts 
southeast over northern ontario while low pressure over the west 
weakens on wednesday.
