across northern ontario. this weekend, high pressure resumes over
the great lakes as a whole before another clipper low pressure moves

.synopsis...
lake superior is currently between a 30.5 inch high over the lower
great lakes and a 29.7 inch low over lake winnipeg. tonight through
tomorrow afternoon, this low will slowly push just north of lake
superior, dragging a 29.8 inch trough over the lake as it
progresses. as the low shifts to the ontario/quebec line tomorrow
night, high pressure of 30.3 inches builds over the northern plains.
this high gradually settles over the great lakes by thursday
morning, building to 30.4 inches. friday, the high moves to the
southern portion of the great lakes while a 29.9 inch low moves
across northern ontario. this weekend, high pressure resumes over
the great lakes as a whole before another clipper low pressure moves
across manitoba and ontario while a colorado low develops.
