Seney Trail Report – 02/25
SENEY AREA UPDATE via Seney Snowmobile Association – 02/25 With our 20th Annual Vet Ride coming up next weekend March 2, 2024. We’ve had a lot of questions about what are our plans. This winter is not like a normal winter at all. As of right now the trails out of town are all dirt, and not ridable out of Seney. With the warm temps forecasted this week it’s not looking to get any better. We have to change the plans for the ride. We will be doing breakfast instead of lunch. We will be making breakfast during the morning registration. After our flag raising ceremony we will head over to the red barn and fire up the heaters. We will have corn hole boards set up, decks of cards to play any cards games you choose. We’ll have music playing and just enjoy the day with the Vets. We’ll be having dinner earlier at 4:00 pm instead if 6. If you are wanting to go for a snowmobile ride please call Marc at 231-519-0927 and we will see if we can get some guides to lead you. You’ll have to trailer north of town about 10 mile to ride. It will be mostly 2 tracks and back trails if you ride. If the snow holds up. If you plan on bringing your sleds just leave them in the trailer and the guides will tell you where to meet. It’s a gamble on your part. We are looking forward to seeing everyone next weekend. <> Via Seney Snowmobile Association On Facebook >>>> <> Via Mater’s Stop -N- Go Gas Station On Facebook >>>> <> <> 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.

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?

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.
