[C320-list] Lake Report

[Wash, Steve]

Wowsers ...

Friday at 0700 peak wind at the Michigan City Lighthouse was 50kts.
There were sustained winds of 30+ kts all day.  The mid-lake buoy
reported wave height of 23 feet with a dominate period of 10 seconds.

We had planned to move our boat this weekend to her winter berth (30
miles away).  It looks like the lake won't calm down until Tuesday.

It just amazing how the wind can cause these large wave to build in just
a few hours.
