open lake forecast for lake michigan
national weather service milwaukee/sullivan wi
146 pm cst thu feb 12 2026

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 around 30.3 inches will gradually move eastward 
through this evening allowing southwesterly winds to develop 
overnight into friday. west-southwest winds will continue through
saturday as low pressure around 29.6 inches drift across far 
northern manitoba/ontario and moves east into the hudson bay 
region by sunday morning. will see a weak cold front extend south 
from this low pressure and drag across lake michigan overnight 
saturday into sunday briefly turning winds more west-northwesterly
into sunday afternoon behind the front.

winds will weaken sunday night as another high pressure around 
30.1 inches builds across the lake. then winds are looking to 
shift south to southwesterly monday as low pressure builds across
the central plains and moves into the midwest through the day 
tuesday. this low pressure is progged track somewhere around the 
great lakes tuesday night through wednesday, resulting in a 
westerly wind shift behind it. while there continues to be 
uncertainty on this midweek low pressure track and strength, 
still cannot rule out the potential for a few gales at times into 
the middle of next week associated with this system.
