Sault Ste. Marie Area Trail Report – 02/26
SAULT STE. MARIE AREA UPDATE via Sault Ste. Marie Snowmobile Association >> 02/26 2/26/25 “I groomed part of 480 and 8 from Ranget Road to Brimley tonight. The trails are really holding up, even with the warmer temperatures. There is a very solid base. The snow is very tacky, so it’s panning into a very hard and solid surface. Thanks Bill and all volunteers! What we have is a huge testament to their hard work all season. The season is far from over!❄️❄️❄️ <> <> Sault Ste. Marie Snowmobile Association Facebook Page <> WEATHER UPDATE via US National Weather Service Marquette Michigan >> The first round of wet snow has pushed into much of the UP this morning. While several areas may see a lull in the precipitation this afternoon, a rain/snow mix may be seen this afternoon in many areas. As the low pressure passes this afternoon, winds swing to the north and become quite gusty, with Lake Superior shoreline locations potentially seeing gusts to 45 mph. A rapid cooldown is then expected with lake effect snow forming tonight. #miweather #keweenaw #westernup #marquette #munising #seney #newberry #soo #straitsareaThe first round of wet snow has pushed into much of the UP this morning.

WEATHER UPDATE via TV6 & FOX UP >> Get your snowblowers ready! Heavy snow comes tomorrow. Amounts could push near a foot in the Keweenaw and the Eastern U.P. Plan on slower travel with sloppy roads and poor visibility. Watch the video for the timeline. WEATHER UPDATE via Meteorologist Brad Sugden >> Winter ain't done with us just yet! A vigorous clipper system barrels through tomorrow bringing a nice swath of heavy snow to parts of the UP. The further south you go, the later in the day it'll be. Likely around the evening drive home a burst of snow moves through quickly coating the ground. This is along an arctic cold front that drops our temps for several days. #miweather #keweenaw #westernup #marquette #munising #seney #newberry #soo #straitsarea #gaylord #cadillac #benzie #traversecity #petoskeyWinter ain't done with us just yet!

Good morning all! With temps cooling off, we have runs resuming. Brimley Bill sent us this report tonight.
Turbo is also heading out late tonight to groom the 8 and 889 route while the temperatures are lower. The Raco, Mission Hill, Bay Mills, and Brimley trails will be in great shape tomorrow morning!”Postings From Regional Pages On Facebook
Notice the heavy snow across the UP through almost the entire day. This is why some areas will go up to 11" or maybe even slightly more.
Winds will be HOWLING. Gusts over 50mph are likely. This can lead to blizzard conditions. I wouldn't be surprised to see some typical problem spots have road closures (M-28). #miweather #keweenaw #westernup #marquette #munising #seney #newberry #soo #straitsarea #gaylord #cadillac #benzie #traversecity #petoskey
