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

.synopsis...

winds will gradually become southwesterly and increase through
this evening as an additional area of low pressure around 29.7 
inches progresses through the northern canadian prairies into 
northern ontario. winds become northwesterly behind the

mississippi river valley. 

low pressure crossing illinois on wednesday will strengthen to
around 29.5 inches as it crosses indiana early thursday morning.
an additional strengthening of the pressure gradient is expected
over lake michigan on thursday. this will bring breezy north- 
northeast winds wednesday night through thursday night. there is 
increasing potential for gales on thursday, particularly over the 
southern two thirds of the lake. wednesday night through friday 
night, a strong north- to-south band of lake effect showers is 
expected to develop. it will be predominantly rain, though some
