open lake forecast for lake michigan
national weather service milwaukee/sullivan wi
353 am cdt sun jul 26 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...

low pressure around 29.8 inches will remain over wisconsin and 
lake michigan through most of monday which will result in 
increasing thunderstorm chances with severe storms possible. very 
warm, moist and unstable air flowing over the relatively cool 
waters may cause patchy dense fog over the lake through monday as 
well. 

northerly winds will develop monday night through wednesday as 
high pressure around 29.9 inches builds over the upper great lakes
and the front pushes southward. a few gale force gusts are
possible tuesday afternoon. look for southerly winds and more 
unsettled weather to resume thursday into next weekend.
