We will be limited to two routes per night because we are down to one machine. Should be a great weekend to ride the 8’s. <> <> Grand Marais Sno-Trails Assoc. on Facebook >>>> <> WEATHER UPDATE via US National Weather Service Marquette Michigan --> Four days of heavy rain and snow brought record-breaking precipitation amounts across portions of Upper Michigan between April 29th and May 2nd.

Snow continues this morning, heaviest across the north central highlands. Snow will then quickly diminish this afternoon and will end most areas by late afternoon. Where the heaviest snow has fallen, travel will be very difficult this morning. Also, where snow has collected on trees, gusty winds this morning may still break tree limbs and cause additional power outages. With warmer weather ahead, melting snow will lead to water level rises on rivers and streams, creating the potential of more flooding... #miweather #keweenaw #westernup #marquette #munising #seney #newberry #soo #straitsareaHistoric late season snow storm ends today.

WEATHER UPDATE via TV6 & FOX UP --> RIGHT NOW: A wintry mix is moving through the western U.P. This will gradually transition to rain. Plan on more rain and thundershowers today. The full forecast is in the video below. WEATHER UPDATE via US National Weather Service Marquette Michigan --> A multi-hazard storm system has begun across Upper Michigan and will linger through Tuesday morning. Initially, expect rain and thunderstorms, but those will gradually transition to a wintry mix of sleet, rain, and snow from west to east today. That wintry mix will then become all snow across the west half of Upper Michigan by this evening with significant snow accumulations over the far western counties tonight. Across the east, the rain and thunderstorms will persist into tonight with winter precipitation not mixing in until after midnight... #miweather #keweenaw #westernup #marquette #munising #seney #newberry #soo #straitsareaA multi-hazard storm system has begun across Upper Michigan and will linger through Tuesday morning.

WEATHER UPDATE via US National Weather Service Marquette Michigan --> The warm and dry pattern will end on Saturday as the next system moves in bringing rain on Saturday and rain/snow on Sunday. The next days will melt more snow, continuing substantial water level rises on rivers, streams, and other low-lying areas. Near the lakeshores, there will be substantial variability in temperatures based on wind direction, but most locations will warm into the 60s and 70s the next few days. This weekend's weather could also impact the ongoing flood risks... #miweather #keweenaw #westernup #marquette #munising #seney #newberry #soo #straitsareaThe warm and dry pattern will end on Saturday as the next system moves in bringing rain on Saturday and rain/snow on Sunday.

The wet heavy snow made it.
Power is out in a good part of the area.
The big backup generator is going here so we have power. We will be open today as usual.
Here's a good powder day for everyone. Be careful there will be hazards on the trails drifts, potential low hanging trees or downed trees.
