open lake forecast for lake michigan
national weather service milwaukee/sullivan wi
244 am cst fri nov 14 2025

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...

expect moderate southerly winds to build across lake michigan
today as high pressure around 30.3 inches over the southeastern 
us continues to slide southeastward. winds begin to shift to the 
southwest into saturday as a secondary low pressure around 29.3 
tracks across the upper great lakes. this will also drag a cold 
front across the region through the day saturday with west to 
northwesterly winds increasing across lake michigan into sunday. 
winds gusts will approach gale force during this timeframe, 
especially for northeastern nearshore zones in the far northern 
third of the lake saturday night into sunday. while potential for 
gales persist, still a bit of uncertainty on exceeding 34 knots 
for extended period. thus will to hold off on any gale headlines 
at this time. winds then look to diminish into the start of next 
week as high pressure builds into the upper midwest.
