Marine Weather Statement issued July 8 at 8:07PM EDT by NWS Grand Rapids MI

Effective: Wed July 8, 2026, 8:07 PM
Expires: Wed July 8, 2026, 9:45 PM

The areas affected include... Nearshore and Open Waters from Holland to Whitehall MI... At 807 PM EDT, Doppler radar indicated strong thunderstorms, capable of producing winds to around 30 knots. These thunderstorms were located along a line extending from 8 nm east of North Pt. Lt. to 29 nm east of Port Washington to 25 nm east of Oostburg, moving east at 30 knots.

Mariners can expect gusty winds to around 30 knots, locally higher waves, and lightning strikes. Boaters should seek safe harbor immediately until these storms pass. This strong thunderstorms will likely produce winds to around 30 knots, and could pose a serious hazard for boaters. A special marine warning may eventually be required when these storms reach the nearshore waters. Boaters should consider heading for shore before these storms arrive.

The times presented here are based upon the solunar theory, which is the idea that the movements of fish and other animals are affected by the location of the sun and moon. The major periods are believed to be the times of the greatest animal activity and occur when the moon is directly overhead or underfoot (lunar transits). The minor periods also see increased activity and occur when the moon is rising or setting. The strongest activity occurs during full or new moons, and the weakest during quarter or three quarter moons. This is indicated by the Action Rating.
