Open Lake Forecast for Lake Superior
National Weather Service Marquette MI
403 PM EDT Mon Jun 3 2024

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...Lake Superior is currently set between 30.0 inch
ridging over Quebec and a new trough of 29.4 inches developing off
the northern Rockies. On Tuesday, 29.2 inch low pressure tracking
across the Canadian Prairies will power the trough eastward to
the Upper Mississippi Valley. The trough will then sail across
Lake Superior Tuesday night and Wednesday morning while the parent
low pressure tracks from the Canadian Prairies toward northern
Ontario. The low weakens to 29.5 inches over far northeastern
Ontario Thursday through Thursday night while a 30.0 inch ridge
builds southeast into the Northern and Central Plains. This ridge
will drift toward the Mississippi Valley on Friday while the low
over far northeastern Ontario drifts east into Quebec, weakening
to 29.6 inches.
