open lake forecast for lake superior
national weather service marquette mi
1001 am edt sat oct 10 2026
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 30.4 inch high over new york
state and a 29.4 inch low over southern saskatchewan, resulting in a
tight pressure gradient and elevated winds today. a gale warning is
in effect later today for portions of eastern lake superior. the low
slowly weakens to 29.6 inches while tracking northeastward toward
ontario today into tonight. meanwhile, 29.7 inch hurricane isaias
will move north through alabama, eventually helping to kick the high
eastward off the atlantic coast by early sunday. sunday morning, the
canada low will split into two weaker 29.7 inch lows, one settling
over the central plains and one moving from northern minnesota to
northern ontario. this will create weak 29.8 inch troughing over
lake superior for sunday, deepening to 29.7 inches by monday
evening. this is followed by pressure rises beginning late tuesday,
peaking at 30.3 inch high pressure settling over the upper great
lakes by thursday.

open lake forecast for lake superior
national weather service marquette mi
1001 am edt sat oct 10 2026
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 30.4 inch high over new york
state and a 29.4 inch low over southern saskatchewan, resulting in a
tight pressure gradient and elevated winds today. a gale warning is
in effect later today for portions of eastern lake superior. the low
slowly weakens to 29.6 inches while tracking northeastward toward
ontario today into tonight. meanwhile, 29.7 inch hurricane isaias
will move north through alabama, eventually helping to kick the high
eastward off the atlantic coast by early sunday. sunday morning, the
canada low will split into two weaker 29.7 inch lows, one settling
over the central plains and one moving from northern minnesota to
northern ontario. this will create weak 29.8 inch troughing over
lake superior for sunday, deepening to 29.7 inches by monday
evening. this is followed by pressure rises beginning late tuesday,
peaking at 30.3 inch high pressure settling over the upper great
lakes by thursday.
