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

.SYNOPSIS...An organized complex of showers and thunderstorms
continues to work across areas south of Saginaw Bay early this
morning. Meanwhile, a cold front drifts southeastward this
afternoon becoming a focus for potential redevelopment of showers
and storms. Clearance of the cold front and increasing influence
of surface high pressure, 30.10 inches, ushers in drier weather
toward the end of the week.
