open lake forecast for lake erie
national weather service cleveland oh
400 am edt sat may 9 2026
for waters beyond five nautical miles of shore on lake erie
waves are the significant wave height - the average of the highest
1/3 of the wave spectrum. occasional wave height is the average of
the highest 1/10 of the wave spectrum.

afternoon as subtle trough axes move eastward across lake erie. a
cold front is expected to sweep southeastward across the lake
this evening through tonight. behind the front, a ridge averaging
30.10 inches should affect lake erie as the embedded high
pressure center moves from the canadian prairies to atlantic
waters near north carolina on sunday through tuesday. the ridge
exits generally eastward tuesday night through wednesday as a low
of 29.70 inches wobbles east-southeastward from the northwestern
great lakes toward lake ontario. this should allow a warm front to
sweep northward across lake erie tuesday night through wednesday
morning and a cold front to sweep eastward across the lake later
on wednesday.
