Ice cover is also present in the Straits of Mackinac, Green Bay, and along much of the western and southern shore of Lake Michigan. Lake St. Clair remains ice-covered. In Lake Erie, ice cover is present in the western basin, far-western portions of the central basin, and along the northern and eastern shore. A net decay in ice coverage is expected during the next five days as surface air temperatures tend to be above-normal, including daily highs primarily above 32 degrees and daily lows exceeding 32 degrees at times.
