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...

high pressure of 30.3 inches will continue to shift east tonight.
light and variable winds will become south-southeasterly by dawn
tuesday, with gusty winds developing over the lake quickly through
the morning hours as low pressure of 29.6 inches approaches from
the northwest. forecast models suggest that despite a near 
surface temperature inversion over the lake, showers over the 
lake will mix down gales from the late morning through the mid 
afternoon. a gale warning has been issued for this time period, 
over roughly the middle third of the lake. gusty winds then ease 
a bit during the early evening hours as a cold front passes and
winds become northwesterly. gusty northwest winds then return
wednesday morning in the cold advection regime behind the cold
front.

north to northwest winds then ease wednesday night into thursday
as high pressure of 30.1 inches moves over lake michigan.
