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, 30.30 inches, over Lake Superior leading to
persistent north-northeast flow over Lake Huron today. The high will
drift to the southern Great Lakes Thursday night into Friday,
sustaining dry conditions across the region. A secondary high
pressure system is forecast to expand from Hudson Bay Friday to Lake
Huron Saturday. This will drive a secondary push of gusty northeast
winds, likely increasing winds and waves in the nearshore areas.
