Seney Trail Report – 12/28
SENEY AREA UPDATE via Seney Snowmobile Association – 12/28
We are still working on the trails from the storm. We double groomed trail 43 and 8 all the way to the Bear Trap yesterday. We’ll be doing trail 431 today with both groomers. After today we should be able to start sending the groomers one their own runs. With all the drifting it’s taking some time to get the trails smooth. Please be patient with us we are trying our best. Trail 431 going though the swamp is not open yet so stay off of that one. It’s not frozen and be nothing but a mud bog for your sled. We’ll update everyone when we can open that section of trail. So just take trail 440 north out of Seney along M-77 until we open it up. We’d like to let everyone know that the SSA is using GroomerTracker this year. If you download their app and follow the SSA. You’ll be able to see where are groomers are and what we’ve groomed. So download their free app today. It only cost you $10 for the hole season to see where and what we’ve groomed. Half of the fee is donated back to the SSA. Here’s a link so you can download it.

WEATHER UPDATE via US National Weather Service Marquette Michigan >> Lake effect snow continues through tonight, with the highest additional accumulations expected over the north-central and western UP. Gusty north winds will contribute to blowing snow and areas of very low visibility along M-28 between Marquette and Munising today, as well as parts of the Keweenaw. Lake effect finally tapers off Monday morning. #miweather #keweenaw #westernup #marquette #munising #seney #newberry #soo #straitsarea
WEATHER UPDATE via US National Weather Service Marquette Michigan >> Moderate lake enhanced snow will continue to impact mainly the Keweenaw and parts of the central U.P. today, where Winter Weather Advisories remain in place through 7 PM this evening.

WEATHER UPDATE via Michigan Storm Chasers >> Okay, remember how we mentioned sneaky snow this weekend? Well, it started yesterday, and will continue today at times, but fill in greater as lake effect by Sunday.
Here on February 21st, 2026, most of the snow and freezing rain will continue across the western UP and northwestern LP. We will see a shift to more snow into central and southern Michigan by late this evening. Then on Sunday, snow should be on-and-off across the entire state, with an uptick in typical lake effect zones such as the spine of the western UP, and the entire Lake Michigan shoreline. Lake effect bands are very finicky, and are subject to microclimate wind shifts. It's very possible that a few locations in our 1-3" zone see 4-5" by the end of the day on Sunday. We will be monitoring radar for a dominant lake effect band that stretches across the peninsula. The increase of wind on Sunday morning may also reduce visibility on all roadways to under half a mile, so travel only as fast as conditions allow.
Bottom line, plan for some more of that "annoyance" snow. Not enough to be called a big storm, but enough to cover all side roads, and many of our main roads. Accumulation will be higher during the overnight hours when surface temperatures are NOT at or above 32°F for most of the state. This also means our chances at freezing drizzle are higher during the daylight hours. #miweather #keweenaw #westernup #marquette #munising #seney #newberry #soo #gaylord #cadillac #benzie #traversecity #petoskeyOkay, remember how we mentioned sneaky snow this weekend?

We fully expect to see your emoji reactions to this snowfall still-to-fall through the morning commute on Monday. Are you ready for winter to be over, or do you need this snow like there's no tomorrow?

WEATHER UPDATE via 9&10 News >> Weather Update / 2-20-26:
Tracking more snow and colder temperatures into the weekend, breezy winds early next week, and another clipper mid next week.
Winds go more NW into this weekend bringing back some colder temperatures to support more snow. Better chances for the snow Saturday into N. Lower and the Tip of the Mitt. More lake effect snow chances for Sunday.
NW winds will become breezy Sunday into Monday. We also could have another clipper system to track next Tuesday into Wednesday. As of now, looking more like another snow/mix.
