Spring tides (accentuated extreme high and low tides caused by the overlap of the sun and the moon's gravitational effects) can cause enough flow into the lake that the sand bar is breached.  This is even more likely during storms where a prevailing wind (from the South in our case) can push the swell over the bar and into the lake.

The disturbance of the sandbar and moisture in the sand make it much more likley that the water from the lake will be able to push out into the ocean and the bar will be breached.

Consequently natural breaks often occur during storms.
