High Swim Risk Today

Poor Beach Weekend On Tap

Outlook

If the suboptimal weather does not keep you out of the water today, then High Swim Risk should. A high swim risk is in place for some Lake Michigan and Huron beaches today. Waves of 4-6 feet and life-threatening rip currents are expected at times through the afternoon. For more information, please visit: weather.gov/GreatLakes/BeachHazards.

It will NOT be a good weekend to hit the beach…highs in the 50s today along with blustery and drizzly conditions through the afternoon hours. High swim risks are expected today for many Great Lakes beaches. Some improvements are expected going into Sunday. Please check https://www.weather.gov/greatlakes/beachhazards for additional details.
