National Weather Service Cleveland OH
301 PM EST Sun Nov 30 2025

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...
Low pressure will deepen to 29.70 inches as it tracks east-
northeastward, away from Georgian Bay and to southwestern Quebec,
by this early evening. A trough averaging 30.10 inches lingers
over the lake through most of this evening before a ridge
averaging 30.50 inches moves eastward across Lake Erie overnight
tonight through Monday. During Monday night through Tuesday, a low
should deepen to 29.40 inches as it wobbles northeastward from
the northwestern Gulf to Atlantic waters near the Delmarva
Peninsula. Simultaneously, the low will extend a trough averaging
30.00 inches over Lake Erie. On Tuesday night through Wednesday, a
ridge averaging 30.50 inches should build from the Lower Ohio
Valley and vicinity before a cold front sweeps southeastward
across Lake Erie Wednesday night. Behind the cold front, a ridge
averaging 30.20 inches should build from the Upper Midwest through
Thursday before exiting slowly eastward Thursday night through
Friday.
