For waters beyond five nautical miles of shore on Lake Erie

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...
A ridge averaging 30.10 inches persists over the eastern Great
Lakes region today. The ridge then exits eastward and allows a
warm front to lift northeast across Lake Erie tonight. A cold
front sweeps southeastward across Lake Erie Tuesday night and then
wavers near the lake on Wednesday through Thursday.
Simultaneously, Tropical Cyclone Beryl`s remnant low with minimum
central pressure near 29.70 inches should track along the front
from the Lower Ohio Valley toward southwestern Quebec Wednesday
into Thursday. Behind the low, a cold front should sweep
southeastward across the lake Thursday as a ridge averaging 30.00
inches builds from the west by Friday.
