OPEN LAKE FORECAST for Lake Michigan
National Weather Service Milwaukee/Sullivan WI
244 AM CST Sun Jan 24 2021

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... 

A weak surface low of 29.9 inches will move across the northern 
edge of Lake Superior today, pushing a weak cold front across Lake
Michigan later this afternoon. Gusty south winds into this 
afternoon will weaken and shift to the west behind the front by 
early this evening.

Low pressure of 29.4 inches is then forecast to move from 
northeast Oklahoma to central Missouri Monday, then across the 
Ohio River Valley Monday night and Tuesday. There is some 
uncertainty with the exact low track. 

However, northeast winds are expected to increase over Lake 
Michigan Monday through Tuesday. A few northeast gales remain 
possible Monday night into Tuesday morning over the south half of 
Lake Michigan. Waves will build during this period as well. Gusty 
north to northeast winds should linger Wednesday into Thursday.
