national weather service milwaukee/sullivan wi
251 pm cst wed dec 3 2025

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...

a cold front continues to progress across lake michigan this
afternoon, currently draped across the far southern portions of
the open waters. expect gusty northwest winds behind this front,
with a few gusts up to gale force possible tonight in far 
northern portions of the open waters. these gusts are not expected
to be widespread or consistent. very cold air combined with gusty
conditions will result in periods of moderate freezing spray
tonight into thursday morning. 

winds shift southwesterly again thursday as high pressure around
30.4 inches builds over the ohio valley. a weak low pressure 
system around 29.7 inches will move west to east across southern
ontario thursday night through friday, increasing southwesterly 
winds to gales across the northern third of the open waters. 
elsewhere, expect gusts around 30 kt. moderate freezing spray is 
expected once again during this time frame. a gale warning is in 
effect from thursday night into friday morning. a cold front will 
drape across the open waters friday into friday night, bringing
