Forecast

The barometric pressure in Mackinac Island changes frequently due to its location on Lake Huron. Pressure systems from the lake and surrounding land masses influence the island's weather.

Mackinac Island is situated on an island in Lake Huron, surrounded by water. This unique landscape affects the atmospheric pressure, making it prone to fluctuations. The island's terrain is relatively flat, with few elevated areas to block air masses.

Air masses from the lake dominate the weather patterns, leading to rapid pressure changes. Additionally, the nearby Straits of Mackinac connect Lake Huron to Lake Michigan, allowing air masses to move freely. This combination of lake and land influences results in dynamic weather patterns on the island.
