A Lakeshore Flood Advisory also remains in effect through this afternoon. * Lake Shore Flooding... A strong cold front will move through southern Lake Huron tonight. A sharp wind shift to the north will occur behind the front and gusty wind will build high waves into the Thumb region shoreline through Friday morning. * Impacts... The undisturbed water level of Lake Huron is nearly 40 inches above chart datum. The high water level and high waves will combine to produce minor shoreline flooding and erosion. Damage to docks, boat lifts, and watercraft anchored and unprotected along the shoreline can also be expected. * High Wave Action and Dangerous Swimming Conditions Expected. * Location...Beaches from Caseville to Port Huron including... Caseville...Sand Point...Port Crescent State Park...Port Austin...Harbor Beach...Port Sanilac...Lexington...Birch Beach...Lakeport...Fort Gratiot...Port Huron. * Impacts...The high wave action will be favorable for rip currents and structural currents that make swimming dangerous.
