national weather service milwaukee/sullivan wi
202 pm cst tue feb 10 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...
breezy northwest winds continue into this evening, achieving 25
to 30 knot gusts into tonight as low pressure around 29.6 inches
tracks eastward past montreal and high pressure around 30.3
inches builds eastward into the mississippi river valley. we
can't rule out a few gusts to gale force tonight, but nothing
persistent / widespread.
the aforementioned broad area of high pressure slowly drifts
eastward into wednesday, with northwest winds diminishing into
wednesday night. nearly calm or light and variable winds expected
on thursday as it passes overhead. high pressure continues east
into ohio later this week, working with weak low pressure in
central ontario / quebec to drive light southwesterly winds over
the lake friday into saturday.
