WEATHER UPDATE via US National Weather Service Marquette Michigan >> Expect scattered light lake effect snow showers in the NW wind snowbelts tonight with less than an inch of accumulation. Warmer weather is in store for midweek with highs in the 20s and even into the low 30s in the far west. Two round of light snow is expected on Thursday into Friday morning. A strong front will bring falling temperatures on Friday along with windy conditions and blowing snow, especially near Lake Superior. #miweather #keweenaw #westernup #marquette #munising #seney #newberry #soo #straitsareaExpect scattered light lake effect snow showers in the NW wind snowbelts tonight with less than an inch of accumulation.

IRONWOOD - WESTERN U.P. UPDATE via Gogebic Range Trail Authority - ORV & Snowmobile Club >> Charlie was out last night grooming 11s! Trail has shaped up nicely.
More snow is in the forecast towards the end of the week. It’s been a real life snow globe these last couple days!
Ride respectfully but more importantly, ride safe. #westernup #snowphotos
WEATHER UPDATE via US National Weather Service Marquette Michigan >> Mostly light northwest wind lake effect continues through today, although we may see some half inch per hour rates at times over the east from time to time before it tapers off tonight. On Wednesday, expect partly cloudy skies and maybe some light snow showers hanging around the east with highs in the upper teens to mid 20s. #miweather #keweenaw #westernup #marquette #munising #seney #newberry #soo #straitsareaMostly light northwest wind lake effect continues through today, although we may see some half inch per hour rates at times over the east from time to time before it tapers off tonight.

ONTONAGON AREA UPDATE via Scott's Superior Inn and Cabins >> ❄️ Porcupine Mountains / Ontonagon Snow Report ❄️
Winter is absolutely delivering right now. We’re over 160” for the season total so far.
We’ve measured 24 inches of fresh snow in just the last week and a half right on our deck, and conditions across the Porcupine Mountains and Ontonagon area are shaping up to be the best snowmobiling and skiing we’ve seen in many years.
Snowmobile trails are well-covered with a solid base, riding smooth and fast thanks to consistent cold temps. Off-trail snow is deep, fluffy, and exactly what you hope for up here. For skiers — both downhill and Nordic — coverage is excellent, with beautiful natural snow and classic Lake Superior powder conditions.
📸 This photo shows exactly what’s fallen recently — and there’s even more in the woods.
If you’ve been waiting for a reason to make the trip north, this is it.
And if you’re looking for a warm, comfortable place to stay after a full day on the trails or slopes, Scott’s Superior Inn & Cabins is right here in Ontonagon — rider- and skier-friendly, close to the trails, and the perfect home base for conditions like this.
These are the kind of winters people remember. Don’t miss it. #ontonagon #westernup #snowphotos❄️ Porcupine Mountains / Ontonagon Snow Report ❄️

LAKE GOGEBIC AREA UPDATE via Gogebic Area Grooming >> Bergland Area Groomer's update for 2-3-26.
Snow was laying down perfectly tonight and the trail's are in excellent shape!! 102 is the best it's been so far this season. Early bird's get out there and enjoy!
8w still has some chop to it but overall turned out decent.
Generally speaking February is prime time for trail riding here in the yoop. Lesser traffic, temp's have been perfect and we've been basically getting light snow daily.
Trail's covered tonight, 102, 13s, 1n and 8w.
We have a full crew lined up for tonight and our entire system should be covered. Gogebic Area Grooming ❄️❄️❄️

LAKE GOGEBIC AREA UPDATE via Gogebic Area Grooming >> Bergland Area Groomer's update. 2-2-26.
Such a busy week it's been. From keeping up with trail's and making sure both machine's are on the trail! We've had our hands full.
Temp's on Saturday got into the upper 20's and heavy traffic really took a toll throughout our system. We've been able to get everything back in shape, but some will take a couple passes to get back to Great Again!!
Trail's covered tonight 102, 13n, 8e and 8w.
Will we make it to March 31st this season? It looks promising..
