OPEN LAKE FORECAST for Lake Michigan
National Weather Service Milwaukee/Sullivan WI
855 PM CDT Fri May 31 2024

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...

High pressure of 30.3 inches over the eastern Ohio River Valley this
evening will continue to head eastward tonight. Light southerly
winds will prevail between the departing high and an approaching
trough of low pressure. A weak surface low of 29.9 inches will
then pass to the south of the area Saturday, bringing rain showers
to at least the southern half of the lake. Winds will likely
shift to the east and then north as the low moves through the
region, especially across the southern half of the lake. Light and
variable winds are likely Sunday as high pressure of 30.0 inches
briefly moves through the area. Winds will return to southerly
early next week and also increase a bit ahead of the next
approaching low pressure system. A chance for showers and storms
will return to Lake Michigan during this period as well.
