open lake forecast for lake huron
national weather service detroit/pontiac mi
issued by national weather service grand rapids mi
932 am est thu jan 22 2026

for waters beyond five nautical miles off shore on lake huron

waves are the significant wave height - the average of the highest
1/3 of the wave spectrum. occasional wave height is the average of
the highest 1/10 of the wave spectrum.

.synopsis...low pressure, 29.70 inches, will exit from the
northern great lakes to quebec this morning. this will draw a
strong arctic cold front across the great lakes. expect elevated
winds/waves, freezing spray, and additional periods of snowfall
including snow squalls.

open lake forecast for lake michigan

847 am cst thu jan 22 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...

low pressure around 29.6 inches over eastern ontario will move
into quebec today, with gusty west winds lingering over lake 
michigan. a period of west gales shifting to northwest are 
expected tonight into mid-morning friday over the southern two 
thirds of the lake, and a gale warning is in effect for this 
period.

gusty northwest winds will gradually diminish friday afternoon 
and night, as strong high pressure around 31.0 inches over the 
northern plains expands into the upper midwest. 

the gusty winds, arctic air and elevated wave heights will 
support periods of heavy freezing spray into friday night. a heavy
freezing spray warning is in effect now through early saturday
morning across all of lake michigan.

the high will expand across the great lakes over the weekend, 
while weakening to around 30.5 inches. this will allow winds 
gradually weaken over lake michigan.
