open lake forecast for lake huron
national weather service detroit/pontiac mi
334 am edt thu mar 13 2025

for waters beyond five nautical miles off shore on lake huron

waves are the significant wave height - the average of the highest
1/3 of the wave spectrum. occasional wave height is the average of
the highest 1/10 of the wave spectrum.

.synopsis...high pressure, 30.20 inches, over quebec will move to
the canadian maritimes by tomorrow morning. a ridge of high 
pressure, 30.10 inches, will extend across the eastern great lakes
through this time period. this will result in relatively tranquil
weather conditions. deepening low pressure is then forecast to 
move from the central plains friday into the western great lakes 
saturday. this system will result in windy conditions and periodic
showers through the weekend.
