Lewy Lake wind forecast · ME
Wind forecast, gusts, and gage height for small-craft sailing at Lewy Lake (Lewy Lake At Princeton).
Hourly wind, gusts, and direction for the next 7 days with a small-craft sailing score for every hour — find the window, then rig for it.
How the score works. Every hour gets 0–10 points: full marks for sustained wind between 6 and 16 knots, with deductions for gust factors above 1.5× sustained wind, high rain probability as a storm flag, and cold that raises capsize stakes — gauge water temperature where a sensor exists, air otherwise.
Lake wind is local. Thermal builds on sunny afternoons, katabatic draining at dusk, and channeling between hills all mean the modeled numbers can run a few knots either side of what you feel on the water — treat this as a planning tool, not a gospel.

Water level data comes from the USGS gauge above; wind is modeled for the lake’s coordinates by Open-Meteo. Always confirm conditions locally before launching — shorelines, ramps, and trees can all change what you feel on the water. In the Northeast, the strongest lake wind usually arrives with cold fronts and the northwest flow behind them. Long, narrow lakes channel wind along their axis, and a sunny afternoon can double a light morning breeze on big water.
