open lake forecast for lake michigan
national weather service milwaukee/sullivan wi
903 am cdt thu jul 9 2026

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...

light to modest north winds over the northern half of the lake
will slowly move south today, shifting winds in the southern half
of the lake from southerly to northerly. some fog may develop at 
times during this period, with patchy dense fog possible, as
relatively warm, moist air remains over the cooler lake waters. 
winds will remain north to northeast on friday, as high pressure 
around 30.0 inches builds into the the region from the north. the 
high should shift southeast over the weekend, which should 
continue to bring light to modest winds.
