open lake forecast for lake michigan
national weather service milwaukee/sullivan wi
813 am cdt fri oct 2 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...

30.3 inch high pressure will move across lake michigan this 
evening, bringing decreasing & eventually light/variable winds. 
winds will trend south-southwesterly saturday as 29.8 inch low 
pressure moves toward the hudson bay from the canadian prairies. 
the low will pull a cold front across the waters saturday night 
into sunday, bringing a west-northwest wind shift. showers could 
accompany the passing front, particularly across the northern half
of the waters. northwest winds will continue through the day 
monday, tapering monday night as 30.2 inch high pressure moves in
from the northern great plains. 

a deeper area of 29.4 inch low pressure will build toward the 
hudson bay tuesday through thursday. south-southwest winds will 
increase in advance of the approaching low tuesday afternoon 
through wednesday, becoming gusty at times. a few gusts could 
approach gale-force, particularly over the northern half of the 
open waters. will be monitoring for possible headlines as this 
portion of the period draws closer. the low will pull a cold front
across the waters wednesday night into thursday, bringing a west-
northwest wind shift and scattered rain showers. best potential 
for rain is currently favored over the northern third of the open 
waters. generally westerly winds will continue through friday as 
30.1 inch high pressure moves near or just south of lake 
michigan.
