national weather service milwaukee/sullivan wi
933 pm cdt thu apr 9 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...

a stationary front will remain just south of lake michigan through
friday, leading to continued light to moderate north winds. high 
pressure of 30.3 inches will then build over the upper great lakes
region friday night into saturday morning, causing winds to become
light and variable. southeast winds return saturday afternoon and
become gusty saturday night as a sharper pressure gradient moves
over the lake as low pressure of 29.4 inches moves into the
northern great plains.
