For the timeline watch the forecast below. WEATHER UPDATE via US National Weather Service Marquette Michigan >> Moderate to heavy snow continues this morning for the high terrain of Marquette and Baraga counties. Elsewhere, light snow, rain, and wintry mix of both are expected. A brief pause in travel impacts occurs tonight before widespread snow returns Saturday through Sunday. #miweather #keweenaw #westernup #marquette #munising #seney #newberry #soo #straitsarea WEATHER UPDATE via US National Weather Service Marquette Michigan >> Rain spreads into the UP this evening, transitioning to snow from west to east tonight. Snowfall rates of 0.5-1”/hr are possible late tonight into early Friday morning across the central UP, which will lead to hazardous travel as visibility drops as low as a quarter mile or less. Snow totals of 2-4” are possible across much of the central UP, with higher amounts of 4-6” in the higher terrain of Marquette and Baraga counties. #miweather #keweenaw #westernup #marquette #munising #seney #newberry #soo #straitsareaRain spreads into the UP this evening, transitioning to snow from west to east tonight.

WEATHER UPDATE via Pictured Rocks Marine Weather Conditions >> OK, here's the latest! Shown below is the expected 24-hour snowfall accumulation from 7pm today through 7pm Friday, along with the 24-hour snowfall from 7am Saturday through 7am Sunday. The 12-hour "gap" in between those two periods is the lull between the two waves of snow, when not much is expected to happen. And the snowmelt from the warm spell today should largely have ceased by then. More snow is also expected after 7am on Sunday and even into Monday, but it's a bit too early to call the snow amounts for that time period. Winter will not succumb to our brief warm spell! #miweather #keweenaw #westernup #marquette #munising #seney #newberry #soo #straitsarea #gaylord #cadillac #benzie #traversecity #petoskey This content isn't available right now WEATHER UPDATE via US National Weather Service Marquette Michigan >> After some fog today, rain moves in tonight, with a transition to snow that could have a period of light freezing rain and/or sleet mixed in. The best chances for 3+ inches of snow are in the high terrain of Marquette and Baraga Counties. Snow then ends from west to east through the day Friday, though travel might be difficult in some spots on the morning commute. This weekend may also bring snowfall, so keep an eye on the forecast if you have travel plans. #miweather #keweenaw #westernup #marquette #munising #seney #newberry #soo #straitsareaAfter some fog today, rain moves in tonight, with a transition to snow that could have a period of light freezing rain and/or sleet mixed in.

WEATHER UPDATE via Meteorologist Brad Sugden >> A narrow band of snow falls over parts of the western U.P. late Thursday through Friday. Some higher elevations could top 6" of snow! MUNISING AREA UPDATE via Alger County SORVA >> Trail Report Posted - www.algersorva.com/snowmobile-trail-report/ MUNISING AREA UPDATE via TNT Trenary Northern Trails >> A picture says a thousand words! Thank you Steve, Dean, and Brandon for getting your hands dirty with this 3 day repair marathon! Of course all of the parts didn’t come in for the front axle pivot, but we had enough parts to get us by until we get another window for a proper repair. With temps hovering in the low 30’s and the trail holding up amazingly well, we will probably hold off grooming until the temperature drops Friday. That will give us time to recover from working our normal jobs all day and putting in even more hours in the shop. I couldn’t be prouder of our team for doing what needs to be done, when it needs to be done! Ride right and ride safe! #munising #snowphotosA picture says a thousand words!

WEATHER UPDATE via US National Weather Service Marquette Michigan >> Today, the morning fog and freezing drizzle will give way to a quiet but warmer than normal day. Fog returns tonight, though the weather remains quiet until a system passes south of the UP Thursday afternoon, bringing a wintry mix of rain, freezing rain, and snow to the UP, though the heaviest rain will fall along the Lake Michigan shores. Once this round of precip wraps up Friday afternoon, attention then turns to the potential for weekend snowfall, though plenty of scenarios are still possible, so those with weekend plans sensitive to winter weather should monitor the forecast. #miweather #keweenaw #westernup #marquette #munising #seney #newberry #soo #straitsareaToday, the morning fog and freezing drizzle will give way to a quiet but warmer than normal day.
