ISSUED 250 PM CDT SAT APR 19 2025
VARIABLE WINDS ARE EXPECTED OVERNIGHT TONIGHT AS HIGH PRESSURE
PUSHES OVER LAKE MICHIGAN. THE HIGH QUICKLY SHIFTS EASTWARD ON
SUNDAY AS LOW PRESSURE LIFTS INTO THE AREA FROM THE SOUTHERN
PLAINS. EXPECT INCREASING EAST TO NORTHEASTERLY WINDS TO DEVELOP
SUNDAY AS LAKE MICHIGAN SITS IN BETWEEN THE DEPARTING HIGH AND
AN APPROACHING LOW. A SMALL CRAFT ADVISORY IS LIKELY FOR THE
NEARSHORE WATERS DURING THIS TIME DUE TO THE BUILDS WINDS AND
WAVES. THE LOW WILL LIFT ACROSS THE NORTHERN HALF OF THE LAKE ON
MONDAY, WITH WINDS TURNING WESTERLY ACROSS THE LAKE AS IT
DEPARTS. GUSTS TO AROUND 30 KNOTS ARE EXPECTED, BUT SOME GALES
CAN NOT BE RULED OUT, ESPECIALLY OVER THE WESTERN PORTIONS OF
THE OPEN WATERS AND ACROSS THE WISCONSIN NEARSHORE WATERS.
