Munising Area Trail Report – 02/23
MUNISING AREA UPDATE via Alger County Sorva – 2/23
TRAIL REPORT, Thursday, February 23, 2023 6:30 a.m.
ONCE AGAIN A FEW MORE INCHES OF FRESH SNOW!
No significant changes yet. Once again we had a few inches of snow fall overnight with conditions slowly improving. Winter Storm Warning in effect with 4 to 6 inches of accumulation forecast.
Overall most of our main trails are in a good condition. Trails still have a few icy areas so be careful in the corners. On Trail 418 from just East of AuTrain West to Trail 417 South the base is icy and still a bit gravely. The remainder of our Trails have a hard, fairly flat base. The layer of sugary snow we have had is starting to improve with the fresh snowfall. It is snowing right now so conditions should continue to improve. Keep a close eye on trail conditions as you ride and stay right. Stay tuned for updates!

MUNISING AREA UPDATE via TNT Trenary Northern Trails – 2/22
All available hands on deck today! Repair went well as our operators came together to get the groomer back in working order. Machine will hit the trail tomorrow as all available operators spent a large part of the day making sure the repair was successful. Until then, the guys will get a well deserved rest. Expect trails to start coming back around to good after this snow and a couple grooms. Until then, ride right and ride safe!

WEATHER UPDATE via US National Weather Service Marquette Michigan >> Widespread snow will begin to spread west to east this morning while a heavier snowband looks to set up in the central UP this afternoon. Uncertainty still remains where this snowband will park, however, heavy snowfall rates will likely create difficult travel along US-41 from Delta to Marquette/Alger counties. Tonight, widespread snow transitions to lake effect snow for the north wind snowbelts.

WEATHER UPDATE via Pictured Rocks Marine Weather Conditions >> Here's the updated 24-hour snowfall forecast through 7am Sunday (top figure) compared to the same forecast from two days ago (bottom figure). No big changes for the UP, although a bit more snow is now forecast for the Keweenaw and central UP. Not a bad way to make up for the recent warmup! #miweather #keweenaw #westernup #marquette #munising #seney #newberry #soo #straitsarea #gaylord #cadillac #benzie #traversecity #petoskey

WEATHER UPDATE via US National Weather Service Marquette Michigan >> Dry weather persists for most of tonight. Then, light to moderate snow spreads across the UP early Saturday morning through the afternoon, with lingering lake effect snow in the north wind snow belts Saturday night. Lake effect winds down Sunday. Expect light snowfall amounts for most of the UP, but lake effect/enhanced snow may lead to locally higher amounts in excess of 4” across the snow belts of the western, north-central, and eastern UP by Sunday. #miweather #keweenaw #westernup #marquette #munising #seney #newberry #soo #straitsareaDry weather persists for most of tonight.

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

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.
