LET `ER SNOW!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! <> <> Visit Paradise Area Night Riders on Facebook >>>> <> WEATHER UPDATE via US National Weather Service Marquette Michigan >> Scattered light snow showers will end across the north by early afternoon as weak high pressure builds in from the west. After a mostly quiet afternoon and evening, a chance of snow is possible late tonight into Wednesday as a low passes to our south. The best chance of accumulating snow will be along the Wisconsin border. Lake effect snow showers will then develop late Wednesday night into Thursday as colder spreads across Lake Superior. #miweather #keweenaw #westernup #marquette #munising #seney #newberry #soo #straitsareaScattered light snow showers will end across the north by early afternoon as weak high pressure builds in from the west.

Rode thru there and the trails were absolutely fantastic! Good job and hopefully more snow will come after the warm up! Keep up the great work!

33 degrees this morning and cloudy. It is supposed to stay in the mid 30`s today and then drop into the 20`s for tonight. The rest of the week looks like mid 30`s for highs and below freezing at night, then get colder for the weekend. Bad news is I saw 46 here at my place yesterday. We lost some snow (obviously) and the roads are now bare….bummer.

It takes approximately 7-9 hours to groom a trail and we need the temps to be cold enough for at least that time frame. We do have a very solid, cold base that does help us. Thank you all for the continued support of GMSTA, visiting our local businesses, and riding the crazy 8's.
Ride right. Ride safe. #grandmarais #newberry
35 degrees this morning with a rain/freezing rain mix. We really had a great run in February with snow and cold temps but it looks like the next few days are gonna suck with temps into the upper 30`s. It does look like the temps will drop by the end of the week tho so lets hope we can hold on for one more month!!
As far as the trails go.....they are still in good shape. All operators that groomed yesterday reported them as good. Today is maintenance day so nothing will be run but we`ll hit them all tomorrow. This warm up for the next few days isn`t gonna help but they should hold....at least for our "high ground" trails. We`ll keep a close eye on our "low ground" trails...ie....the Falls trail #45 and the swamp south of town on trail #8.
I see I haven`t given ya`ll a report since the 19th, that`s cause everything has been in great shape. I`ll keep ya`ll better informed since this weather change.
LET `ER SNOW!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! we need one more month

We pulled as much snow back on trails as possible and corners that were starting to show some wear and dirt.
Due to the warmer temperatures, we have cancelled the Sunday night's groom.
Including a few pics of our Saturday nights groom to Naubinway and this morning's groom on the South trail . #curtis #newberry #snowphotos
Both grooms reported some banking in corners that were bladed down and overall trails are in good condition ! #curtis #newberry #snowphotos
