open lake forecast for lake michigan
national weather service milwaukee/sullivan wi
257 am cdt sat oct 24 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 30.4 inches will prevail over new england and
the mid atlantic states today into sunday, while 29.3 inch low 
pressure tracks from western manitoba to hudson bay. this pressure
pattern will result in modest to breezy southerly winds over lake
michigan today and tonight. 

winds will then trend southwesterly while steadily weakening 
ahead of an approaching cold front on sunday. currently expecting 
the front to move south across lake michigan late sunday afternoon
into sunday evening, bringing a breezy northeast wind shift. 
breezy northeast winds will continue through monday as 30.7 inch 
high pressure slides into ontario from the canadian great plains. 
winds will trend easterly and eventually southerly tuesday into 
the middle of next week as the aforementioned high shifts into the
northeastern united states.
