Sturgeon Bay Canal, WI tide questions

Why is there no tide table for Sturgeon Bay Canal, WI?
Sturgeon Bay Canal, WI is a Great Lakes station. Lake water levels are driven by wind, barometric pressure, and seasonal supply rather than astronomical tides, so NOAA publishes observed water levels here instead of tide predictions. Perigee charts those six-minute observations live.
What moves the water level at Sturgeon Bay Canal, WI?
Short-term changes at Sturgeon Bay Canal, WI come mostly from wind setup and seiches (basin-wide oscillations after storms), while seasonal rise and fall follows rain, snowmelt, and evaporation across the lake basin.
