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 around 29.4 inches tracks northeastward from mn into
southern ontario canada through the overnight hours, weakening to
around 29.7 inches by dawn sunday morning. south winds with gusts
to 20-30 kt continue over the northern half of lake mi through
around midnight, slowly decelerating thereafter.
light to modest south winds continue sunday 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.

.synopsis...
low pressure around 29.4 inches tracks northeastward from mn into
southern ontario canada through the overnight hours, weakening to
around 29.7 inches by dawn sunday morning. south winds with gusts
to 20-30 kt continue over the northern half of lake mi through
around midnight, slowly decelerating thereafter.
light to modest south winds continue sunday 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.

average of the highest 1/10 of the wave spectrum.
.synopsis...
lake superior is currently between a 30.5 inch high over new england
and a 29.5 inch low elongated from the red river valley of the north
to wyoming. as the high is kicked east by the remnants of hurricane
isaias on sunday, the aforementioned 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 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
