WEATHER UPDATE via US National Weather Service Marquette Michigan >> Quieter weather settles in across the U.P. today as lingering snow showers tapering off this morning. A weak clipper system will bring another round of light snow tonight, but only expect another inch or so of accumulation in most locations. After another quiet day on Monday, another system brings a mix of rain and snow to the area on Tuesday. #miweather #keweenaw #marquette #munising #seney #newberry #soo #straitsareaQuieter weather settles in across the U.P. today as lingering snow showers tapering off this morning.

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 US National Weather Service Gaylord Michigan >> Accumulating snow will continue to spread across northern Michigan today into Sunday. Accumulations remain consistent to this mornings forecast with 3-6” for most of the area and localized 7”+ possible where heaviest snow falls this evening and tonight. The combination of snow covered roads and reduced visibility will lead to hazardous travel across parts of the area. #miweather #gaylord #cadillac #benzie #traversecity #petoskey #soo #newberryAccumulating snow will continue to spread across northern Michigan today into Sunday.

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

When this happens, it's usually because the owner only shared it with a small group of people, changed who can see it or it's been deleted. GRAND MARAIS AREA UPDATE via Grand Marais Sno-Trails Assoc. >> West and north routes along with town got groomed last night. Not great grooming conditions but drivers were pretty happy with how things turned out. The plan is to hit east and south tonight. Snow and cold weather are in the forecast. Should make for good grooming conditions. #grandmarais #newberry
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.

NEWBERRY AREA UPDATE via TASA Tahquamenon Area Snowmobile Association >> So I know you are wondering when we will be able to groom again after a inch of rain we have decided to let it freeze back up good before we go out I believe it would do more harm than good if we go out tonight so that being said grooming will resume tomorrow 1-10-26 thank you.. #newberry

NEWBERRY AREA UPDATE via Pine Stump >> 1-9-26
Made the 30s yesterday. Some rain in the night but it’s still winter!
Already getting the calls if we lost all our snow. Had someone say he decided to go somewhere else this weekend. I told him why are you calling me asking about the snow then if you’re not even coming here.
I love talking to people but I don’t have time to answer 100 phone calls a day asking how the trails are here and how they are in the soo munising etc . I try to post on here with photos and videos so people can see what it’s like.
Plenty of snow with snow in the forecast. I think a lot of people will be up this weekend. If nobody comes I’ll go out and enjoy all this snow myself i guess
Hope to see everyone this weekend #newberry #snowphotos
Thanks for posting! We’ll be up Sunday!
PARADISE AREA UPDATE via Paradise Area Night Riders www.paradiseareanightriders.org >> 1/9/26
I crawled outa bed at 6:30 this morning to 38 degrees and rain.....this sucks. It is now 8 am and still raining but the temp went down to 34. I heard it raining all night and my weather station has recorded just over an inch.....this really sucks!!! It is supposed to cool down and turn to snow later this morning and get really windy and that will blow in a cold front, then snow some more Saturday afternoon. I`m sounding like a weather guesser ain`t I ? We do still have a couple foot of snow on the ground tho. Nuff on the sucky weather, lets get to the trails, which this is supposed to be about.....
We didn`t groom anything yesterday cause of the weather. We hit the Stump trail, the Point trails and trail #8 south all last Wednesday and they all turned out good. We are not gonna run anything today cause of the weather again but figure on runnin all high ground trails Saturday. After Saturday we will try and figure out what to do with the low ground trails. It looks like the weather is supposed to turn around closer to normal by Sunday.....we`ll see. Bout all I got for now. Come on Mother Nature.....get yer a$$ back in gear!!!!!!!!!!!!!
LET `ER SNOW!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! and get cold again!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
