average height of the highest 10% of the waves which will
occasionally be encountered.

.SYNOPSIS...

High pressure around 30.3 inches over the eastern Great Lakes

fairly stationary over the next several days. The high will
weaken to around 30.0 inches and the low will strengthen to

approach Wisconsin next weekend.
