open lake forecast for lake michigan
national weather service milwaukee/sullivan wi
918 pm cdt mon jun 15 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...
southwesterly winds shift southerly into early tuesday as a low
pressure system deepens over northern lake michigan (29.5
inches). winds become relatively light and variable underneath it
(northern half of the lake) later tuesday afternoon, with winds
veering west over the southern half. showers and thunderstorms
will be possible across the lake throughout tuesday, a couple of
stronger cells tuesday afternoon could produce small hail.
a weak surface ridge crosses the lake tuesday night, with winds
subsiding and backing southwest. a much more organized low
pressure system (29.2 inches) will then track eastward from
around south dakota, crossing lake michigan wednesday evening.
ahead of it's arrival, we expect gusty southeast winds wednesday
morning and afternoon (particularly over the southern half of the
lake) with increasing chances for thunderstorms, some of which
could be strong (particularly over far southern portions of the
lake). breezy west to northwest winds are expected wednesday night
into thursday as the low exits east. this same breeze then
continues into friday (albeit weaker) as weak high pressure builds
into the region from the west.
