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...

a frontal boundary will remain across the great lakes region

across the lake from day to day, generally east to northeast winds
are expected north of the front, with east to southeast winds 
south of the front. on and off thunderstorms will be possible 
along and north of this frontal boundary through at least friday

bay on saturday, while low pressure around 29.6 inches moves into 
the northern great plains. similar to earlier week storms, 
widespread severe weather is not anticipated, though isolated 
stronger storms with hail and gusty winds are possible.
