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...

30.1 inch high pressure is centered over lake erie this morning,
resulting in generally southerly winds across the open waters. a
cold front is moving into the northern mississippi river valley,
and will approach lake michigan into this afternoon. the front will
slowly move across the waters this evening into wednesday morning, 
bringing a brief north-northwest wind shift. periods of showers 
and storms will accompany the slow-moving front, with severe 
weather appearing unlikely at this time. winds will trend variable
wednesday evening through thursday, when 30.1 inch high pressure 
is forecast to build back into the western great lakes.

a prolonged period of south-southwest winds will become established 
across lake michigan thursday night through sunday as 30.1 inch 
high pressure lingers off the mid-atlantic coast and 29.6 inch 
low pressure stalls over the hudson bay. a slow-moving surface
front will linger across the western great lakes saturday into the
beginning of next week, bringing multiple periods of showers and
thunderstorms. some of these storms could be stronger, with
additional details clarifying through the end of this week.
