open lake forecast for lake michigan
national weather service milwaukee/sullivan wi
233 am cdt sun oct 11 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...
low pressure will continue weakening to around 29.7 inches by
dawn. south winds will slowly decelerate in the process.
light to modest south winds continue through monday as oblong low
pressure lingers over the high plains and upper mississippi river
valley. this low pressure, around 29.6 inches, will tighten up
and track northeastward across central lake mi late monday into
early tuesday, with rain showers likely and chances for
thunderstorms. northwest winds arrive behind the associated cold
front into tuesday, veering northerly or even northeasterly into
wednesday.
a stronger low pressure system is possible later this week, which
could bring gusty east to southeast winds and shower / storm
chances into thursday. the associated cold front and incoming
strong high pressure may then yield gusty northwest winds friday
into saturday, with gales possible.

for waters beyond 5 nautical miles of shore on lake superior.
waves are the significant wave height - the average of the
highest 1/3 of the wave spectrum. occasional wave height is the
average of the highest 1/10 of the wave spectrum.
.synopsis...
lake superior is currently between a 30.5 inch high offshore of new
england and a 29.6 inch low stretched out from northern mn through
south dakota. through the daytime hours, the low splits and weakens
into a pair of 29.7 inch lows, one that remains in the central
plains and another that moves across northern ontario. this will
drag a 29.8 inch low across lake superior tonight into monday
morning as 30.3 inch high pressure expands across the ontario and
manitoba shores of hudson bay. by monday night, the high will weaken
to 30.2 inches over quebec as the plains low moves into the upper
great lakes region at 29.7 inches. as the low escapes to new england
tuesday into wednesday morning, a new 30.2 inch high forms over the
dakotas, moving over lake superior at 30.3 inches wednesday night.
thursday, the high shifts to the eastern great lakes as a 29.8 inch
alberta clipper moves over lake winnipeg.
