for waters beyond five nautical miles off shore on lake huron

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...lighter winds with gusts at 20 knots or less to start
the day as the surface high pressure, 30.60 inches, drifts
southeastward through illinois and eventually into the ohio
valley by wednesday. winds increase out of the wsw this evening
through tonight as a shortwave moves through the great lakes
bringing wind gusts of 20-25 knots and moderate freezing spray to
parts of central and northern lake huron. hazardous small craft
conditions will also develop tonight across outer saginaw bay and
parts of the thumb nearshores. a low pressure, 29.50 inches,
moving over quebec will help drag a front and a reinforcing shot
of arctic air into the region thursday into the weekend. the
result will bring possible gales along with more widespread
moderate to freezing spray across lake huron thursday.

national weather service marquette mi
341 am est tue jan 31 2023

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...a 30.4 inch ridge of high pressure will push southeast
of the upper great lakes today as a 29.7 inch low over james bay 
will enable a weak 30.2 inch trough to clip lake superior later 
this afternoon. this weak troughing pattern with broad high 
pressure to the south will continue through wednesday. a deeper 
trough around 29.8 inches will push southeast over the upper 
great lakes late wednesday night into thursday ahead of 30.7 inch 
high pressure over alberta. this high will shift southeast over 
the dakotas and minnesota friday, then it will continue east over 
the great lakes through the weekend.
