open lake forecast for lake michigan
national weather service milwaukee/sullivan wi
754 pm cdt sun aug 30 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 warm front is draped over central lake michigan this evening, 
resulting in generally southerly winds across the southern half of 
the waters with northeasterly breezes further north. the boundary 
will attempt to work northward from the remainder of the overnight 
through monday, bringing a breezy south-southwest wind shift in its 
wake. areas remaining north of the front will continue to see east-
northeast winds. similar to today, south-southwest winds will become 
breezy once again on monday afternoon, when 25-30 knot gusts are 
anticipated over at least the southern two-thirds of the waters. 
gales are not anticipated. periods of showers and storms continue 
through the overnight hours tonight, with severe weather not 
anticipated.

29.5 inch low pressure will shift from the canadian great plains 
into ontario monday night through tuesday, ultimately reaching the
southern shores of the hudson bay by daybreak wednesday. the 
advancing low will pull a slow-moving cold front over lake 
michigan in the process, with north-northeast winds establishing 
in the wake of the boundary. whether the front clears entirely 
south of the waters or stalls out somewhere over the lake remains 
uncertain. with the front in the vicinity, shower and storm 
chances thus continue monday night through at least mid-week. a 
few stronger storms with gusty winds and hail are possible during 
this time frame. if the front remains close to stationary through 
the first half of the week, it will ultimately clear south of lake
michigan by thursday, bringing northeast winds for the end of the
week.
