pushing the high pressure out and bringing a northeasterly wind 
shift across the lake later wednesday into thursday. will see 
lighter winds on thursday as high pressure around 30.1 inches 
briefly builds back in before influence from a low pressure around
29.7 inches developing over the northern plains push eastward 
through the weekend bringing more southwesterly flow. as a result 
a cold front will drag across the lake resulting in northerly wind
shift toward the end of the weekend. additionally will see 
periodic shower and thunderstorm chances across the lake for the
