Michigan Snowmobile Trail Report

WEATHER UPDATE via US National Weather Service Marquette Michigan >> The week starts out dry today with temperatures climbing above freezing across the UP. The next system brings a mix of rain and snow on Tuesday before temperatures turn sharply colder Tuesday night, followed by a round of potentially heavy lake effect snow in the north wind snow belts on Wednesday. Quieter weather on Thursday then gives way to another chance of snow with the next system on Friday. #miweather #keweenaw #westernup #marquette #munising #seney #newberry #soo #straitsareaThe week starts out dry today with temperatures climbing above freezing across the UP.

Michigan Snowmobile Trail Report

WEATHER UPDATE via Michigan Storm Chasers >> It's noon here on Monday, January 12th, and this week does present a couple instances of lake effect snow throughout the week. As a preliminary first call for the entire week, we've displayed current odds at areas receiving more than 4" of snow based on data from medium range models, and the WPC.
Most of the lake effect snow for the UP will fall between Tuesday and Thursday, where much of the higher elevation areas along Lake Superior currently have a greater than 50% chance at 4" of snow by the end of the work week. For much of the LP, lake effect snow will be confined primarily to Lake Michigan and Lake Huron, especially AFTER Wednesday heading into Thursday. We are keeping an area of 1-20% across much of southern and central Michigan in the event wind shifts or passing clippers allow for extra accumulation, but the greatest chances for 4" will be in the far southwest corner, the thumb, or your typical lake effect zones across northern lower Michigan.
We have lake effect snow forecasts coming all week, along with other forecasts for other weather phenomena such as wind, rain, and perhaps mixed precipitation.

NEWBERRY AREA UPDATE via Pine Stump >> 1-11-26
Around 4 inches of snow last night. I see the groomers all made it out. I would guess the trails should freeze up flat now.
I would imagine it will be lower traffic during the week. It would be a pretty good week to ride if you can sneak away! #newberry #snowphotos

A weak clipper system will bring another round of light snow tonight, but only expect another inch or so of accumulation in most locations.

NEWBERRY AREA UPDATE via TASA Tahquamenon Area Snowmobile Association – 12/17

Hi everyone. If temps allow we are going to send a groomer North to pinestump tonight. On my drive in this morning there was still a good amount of snow on the trail right along 123 by the logging museum. Thats a good sign that the rest of the trail should be ok as the snow typically gets deeper as you go north. Temps are going to be cooling off the rest of the week as well. In the mean time enjoy this amazing picture of our friends up in Houghton at the Portage lift bridge.

NEWBERRY AREA UPDATE via Halfway Lake Cottages, LLC – 12/16

Trail Update 12/16/2024

Good morning. Nothing much new to report today. We saw a bit of a warm up yesterday that will continue through today. Clubs have parked their groomers for now. It looks like after today temps drop back down below freezing and grooming should resume. This should make for a really good base. We also have the potential for some snow tword the end of the week. The season is really shaping up to be a good one.

Anyone wanting to get a quick ride in this weekend we do have some openings. Call and book today. 810-531-1344.
