It’s coming! Maybe the biggest dumping we’ve had all year!
Looks like entire UP could receive a lot of fresh snowfall!
Tomorrow should NOT be anyone’s day for travel, wherever you choose to ride!
Where are you planning or dreaming of heading?!

Justin Stoderl is staying at the Root Cellar Resort and actually went out to ride this morning.
Justin said “13 N leaving Root Cellar this morning. Plenty of good snow, once groomers get out it will be perfect. Few small drifts on 137 use caution… Landed here in Ontonagon.”
Thanks so much for sharing Justin! Be safe and keep us updated!
IF anyone attempts to ride PLEASE use extreme caution and be prepared for possible downed trees, water hazards hidden under fresh snow, blowing and drifting snow etc!
It will take a bit for grooming operations to be able to get trails back in shape!
If you don’t already have the Groomer Tracker app we highly recommend you download it and subscribe to the clubs where you ride! #keweenaw #westernup #snowphotos

I see the small NW shift on the Euro. However, the HRRR and GFS have been doing well this season and are holding steady with my map below.
This will start after sunset tonight and continue through very early Thursday.
The 24" potential is in the high terrain west of Marquette NOT for the city itself. I think a foot is possible there, though! Marquette is in my 10-14" / 12-16" band so essentially 10-16" of snow.
Remember the WIND will be strong. Gusts 40-50mph will common in the UP with the snow coming down. Blizzard conditions are possible. #miweather #keweenaw #westernup #marquette #munising #seney #newberry #soo #straitsareaSnow map is holding strong based on latest guidance!

A blizzard is expected to bring near-impossible travel conditions at times Tuesday afternoon through Wednesday afternoon. Widespread rain will turn to heavy snow from west to east tomorrow and Wednesday. Rain will turn to snow along and west of the Missouri River before midnight Tuesday night and east after midnight tomorrow night. Snowfall rates will near 2" an hour at times from portions of IA to portions of WI. Combining intense snowfall rates and wind gusts between 55 and 70 MPH will cause blizzard conditions for 12-18 hours.
The heaviest totals will be from southwest IA up to the western U.P. with amounts of 5" or greater. A rather sharp cutoff is expected on the eastern edge as it will be warmer, but convective precipitation also decreases. We will have an updated snowfall forecast if needed tomorrow morning. #miweather #keweenaw #westernup #marquette #munising #seney #newberry #soo #straitsarea #gaylord #cadillac #benzie #traversecity #petoskey~OUTDATED~

First off I forgot to mention the backwoods is 2.5 - 3 foot of very hard frozen snow with around 3 inches of fluff. Trails are looking good and should hold up just fine by the weekend. So come on up and enjoy our trails one more time.
