905 pm cdt mon jun 8 2026
for waters beyond five nautical miles of shore on lake michigan.

.synopsis...
light east to southeast winds tonight will become northerly by
later tuesday as low pressure of 29.9 inches crosses the center
part of the lake. fog will be possible at times tonight through
tuesday due to a warm and humid airmass over the relatively cool
waters. shower chances will persist tonight into tuesday, with a
few rumbles of thunder at times.
breezy southerly winds are expected wednesday and thursday ahead
of an approaching low pressure system. multiple rounds of showers
and storms are also likely mid-week, with a chance for severe
storms. west to southwest winds and dry weather are then expected
friday behind the departing low.
