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...
29.8 inch low pressure is positioned over northern missouri this
morning, resulting in breezy east winds across the southern half
of lake michigan. winds are lighter further north, where higher
surface pressure is in place. winds will gradually taper across
all of the lake michigan late tonight through wednesday as 30.2
inch high pressure builds across the western great lakes. 29.6
inch low pressure will develop along the ontario-manitoba border
wednesday night, deepening to near 29.5 inches over the hudson
bay by thursday afternoon. the low's development and progression
will result in a southwest wind shift across lake michigan, with
winds becoming gusty late thursday morning and afternoon. highest
gusts are expected over the northern third of the waters, where
20-25 kt readings are currently forecast. gales aren't expected,
though trends will continue to be monitored. a cold front will
cross the waters thursday night, resulting in northwest winds
friday into saturday morning. rain showers will continue into this
afternoon over the southern half of lake michigan. a few wet
snowflakes could mix in over the middle portion of the lake.
additional rain is possible thursday, particularly over the
northern third of the waters.
