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...

light and variable winds (predominantly southeasterly) will
linger as low pressure around 29.6 inches approaches pushes across
wi this afternoon. this low pressure is expected to cross the 
upper peninsula of mi through wednesday, deepening to around 29.3
inches. a cold front extending south of the low is expected to 
cross lake michigan tonight, turning winds southwest and steadily 
increasing toward daybreak on wednesday. strong west to northwest
winds develop over the lake wednesday. expecting storm force gust
for southern two-thirds to gale force gusts for the northern third 
through the day wednesday. gale warnings are in effect across the
lake wednesday, along with a storm warning over the southern two 
thirds of the open waters, where we expect the strongest winds and
highest waves especially on the east side of the lake. winds veer
due west by mid wednesday, then northwest late wednesday through 
thursday night. winds are expected to decrease below storm force 
by daybreak thursday, but gale warnings do remain in effect 
thursday into thursday night as gusty northwest winds continue. 
winds gradually subside into friday as high pressure builds into 
the region from the west.
