OPEN LAKE FORECAST for Lake Michigan
National Weather Service Milwaukee/Sullivan WI
251 AM CDT Sun Jun 2 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...

Areas of dense fog will occur at times for the south half of the
lake this morning, mainly before 9 AM CDT. A Dense Fog Advisory is
in effect. Winds will remain light and variable through Sunday night
as weak high pressure moves across Lake Michigan Sunday afternoon
and evening. Winds will then turn out of the south late Sunday night
into Monday as a trough of low pressure from southern Alberta to
the northern Great Plains deepens to around 29.2 inches. Low
pressure then drifts northeastward into Ontario through Thursday.
Southerly winds over the lake continue through Tuesday night, then
a cold front crosses the lake Wednesday, causing winds to veer
southwesterly. Westerly winds continue through the end of the week
as the low weakens to 29.4 inches and rests over southern
Ontario.

Periods of showers and thunderstorms are forecast from Monday
afternoon through Wednesday.
