We don't necessarily do it on purpose… but I've been on Lake Superior doing a delivery the second week of October; the weather started out pretty nice, but by the time we got east to Munising, MI an early-season blizzard was blowing up. So we put in there for a few days. Lots of snow, really cold, and the waves out on the lake were in the 20-foot+ range.
Basically, early and late season up there, you pretty much need to be ready for anything.
