"Sea" of Michigan!
 
Much nonsense about whether Lake Michigan is a lake or a sea, has been
written here over the years.

I would like to settle this debate for once and for all.

Here are some photos that depict conditions in real seas.

I think that we can agree that conditions like these cannot be found on
"Lake" Michigan!

It's a front Donal, Fronts cross the Sea of Michigan all the time.

Sea conditions look quite calm in your picture.

Best guess is there are around 5000 sunken ships in the great lakes.
It may not be a sea but it acts like one at times.

Cool series of pics.

Cut the Mustard has sailed in conditions like that
many a time and has had less difficult a time than
those ships.

Small yachts under sail ride like a duck up and down
those waves and don't get pounded like those ships.

You can actually find conditions more like the roaring forties.

A pretty good read.

At least one picture is fake.

Wrong you are...very very wrong... Lake Michigan has waterspouts all the
time in the summer and has sitch waves....better do some studying up on the
meteorological conditions present on the Great Lakes...

A product of an inferior education, obviously. The Europeans claim we in
the US know very little about them, however, look at how little they know
about us.

For his sake, I hope so, too. I would hate to think someone was that
ill-informed regarding the geography and climatology of the Great lakes.
