the north and northeast and become gusty later tonight into sunday
morning. a few, sporadic northerly gales are possible sunday, 
mainly over southern portions of the lake. high pressure around 
30.4 inches should then bring decreasing winds for monday through

as the high exits and weak front passes over the region. winds 
over the lake will remain largely from the south through wednesday
as broad low pressure approaches from the west. chances for 
precipitation on tuesday and again on wednesday though primarily 
for northern parts of the lake.
