The Father's Day weekend begins with a fair amount of cloudiness, but a drier northeast wind flow off the lake from a high pressure to the north will scour out the clouds rather expeditiously and result in a fairly pleasant afternoon.
High temperatures will warm into the low 80s well inland, but near the lake it will only be in the middle 60s to near 70 degrees.
Lake Michigan water temperatures are slowly climbing, but still fairly cool.
Saturday beach forecast
Highs are likely to get close to 70 degrees but settle back into the 60s as the northeast wind picks up a bit. It’s hardly ideal swimming weather, but there should be a fair amount of sunshine.
Saturday boating forecast
A slight chop on Lake Michigan is expected due to northeast winds. Expect waves 1-3 feet with a shoreline water temperature of 62 degrees.
Sunburn forecast
Strong June sun will result in a sunburn in just 20 minutes during peak time, at 1 PM.
