.synopsis...

strong low pressure around 29.1 inches will cross the northern 
half of lake michigan and into northern lower michigan today.
strong southwest winds will veer west to northwest over the
southern two thirds of the lake, with strong east to southeast
winds becoming northwest this afternoon to the north. 

widespread gale force gusts are expected across the northern half
of the open waters, where a gale warning remains in effect until 
10 pm cdt tonight. even stronger storm force gusts are expected 
across the southern half of the open waters, where a storm 
warning is in effect until 10 pm cdt tonight as well. 

areas of rain and snow will accompany passing low pressure this 
morning and stronger gusts around this precipitation are 
possible. areas of light to occasionally moderate freezing spray 
are possible over northern lake michigan this afternoon.

winds will diminish later tonight through saturday, as high 
pressure around 30.2 inches builds into the northern great plains 
and crosses the open waters. east northeast winds will steadily 
increase saturday night through sunday, as a second low pressure 
system around 29.4 inches forms in the central great plains. the 
low will progress over or just south of the southern lake michigan
sunday night as it deepens toward 29.1 inches, resulting in a 
northerly wind shift. 

winds will shift out of the northwest monday, as the strong low 
continues into ontario. expect another prolonged period of gales, 
if not storm force gusts, across all of the open waters as the 
low approaches and shifts east of lake michigan early sunday 
morning through monday, with headlines becoming necessary within 
the next 12 to 24 hours. 

prolonged snow is expected saturday night through monday, some of
which could be heavy. sleet or freezing rain could mix in with 
snow over southern lake michigan saturday night into sunday. 
freezing spray potential will increase monday behind the departing
low, with areas of moderate to heavy freezing spray possible. 
trends will be monitored in coming forecasts for potential 
headlines.
