@majestic_michigan: On October 26 and 27, 2010, a storm swept across the Great Lakes and set records for the lowest pressure over parts of the Upper Great Lakes, with winds topping fifty-five miles an hour on Lake Superior, waves above twenty-five feet on its western end, and more than thirty inches of snow in three days at the National Weather Service office in Marquette. 🌊🌬️ Sailors have a name for this season, the gales of November, and it happens because the lakes stay warm well into fall, often warmer than the air by as much as fifteen degrees, so when cold Arctic air from Canada and warm, moist air from the Gulf of Mexico collide over that warm water, the contrast feeds the storm. A study of Great Lakes storms from 1876 to 1900 found that November had the most frequent strong storms, and maritime historians estimate that the gales of November account for about half of all Great Lakes shipwrecks. The storms can even move the lakes themselves, with winds in November 2015 pushing Lake Erie's water up seven and a half feet at Buffalo while it dropped by almost the same amount at Toledo. If you're near the shoreline this week, give the lake some room and some respect. Have you ever watched a November gale from the shore? #GalesOfNovember #SeasonalShifts #PureMichigan #GreatLakes #WitchOfNovember
