255 pm cdt mon aug 31 2026

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

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...

low pressure of 29.5 inches over the canadian prairies will lift
northeastward into the hudson bay through tuesday, bringing
continued breezy southwest winds to lake michigan through
tuesday. with a warm, moist airmass moving northward, patchy dense
fog is also expected overnight into tuesday morning. a front from
the canadian low will settle over the lake tonight, lingering 
through the week and allowing for on-and-off thunderstorms 
through friday. exact placement remains uncertain day to day, and 
will set the stage for placement of daily storms. meanwhile, high 
pressure around 30.0 inches of the southeast u.s. will keep winds 
generally southerly through wednesday. thursday, low pressure 
finally exits into the canadian maritimes, bringing the front into
the ohio valley and allowing winds to shift to northeasterly, 
remaining northeasterly through friday.
