Temps all across the U.P are bitterly cold, we seem to be on the warmer end …. if you can call -12 degrees “warm” With 55 plus inches of snow falling in a week, I’m sure you can imagine the work that has made for Groomer Operators! Here in the Keweenaw they have been trying to keep up with it all, along with trying to get all of the machines up and running. Two of the five machines are still waiting for parts and to be repaired. <> KEWEENAW PENINSULA UPDATE via Western & Southern UP Trail Reports – 02/12 Sorry but I think my phone froze up doing this video.

Trails were for the most part great this past week and that is how many of you other riders have reported them also. Many of you messaged in saying how amazing everything was and wanted to know how to join and further support the club, so I will share that information again for everyone – PLEASE go over to the website and join the club! It’s very easy online and only $25! Please checkout the other opportunities to help support such as the 50/50 raffle snd the GoFundMe set up to build a Groomer Barn! http://www.keweenawsnowmobileclub.com
I’m sure that there will be very heavy traffic with this being a three day weekend for many after a week of incredible snowfall…. we all know that can lead to less than perfect trails…. but I can assure you these Groomer Operators will be doing everything they possibly can to “keep up”.
I highly recommend using the Groomer Tracker
app to help you plan routes each day. For a $10 fee, of which $5 goes directly to the club, you will be able to see up to the minute status of each trail!
Wherever you are riding this weekend please stay warm and ride safe!

The first polar front will sweep through the Midwest on Thanksgiving day bringing temperatures 10 to 15 degrees below average. Lows below zero are expected for some across the north and in the single digits down to I80. Highs this weekend will only be in the single digits and teens for areas down to I80. Dangerous wind chills of -20 degrees or colder are increasingly likely, especially north of I90. The graphic below shows the temperatures on Sunday morning.
Another polar front will move through next week bringing even colder temperatures. Expect reinforcing shots of very cold air over the next couple of weeks. #miweather #keweenaw #westernup #marquette #munising #seney #newberry #soo #straitsarea #petoskey #gaylord #cadillac #traversecity~First Polar Front Thanksgiving~

Before anyone gets on the "SEE CLIMATE CHANGE IS FAKE" train... one of these below average maps DOES NOT negate the other 500 above average ones. Trends, folks. Trends. Nothing is a straight line. The warming temperature trend line is full of peaks and valleys with an overall increasing trend. 🙂 #miweather #keweenaw #westernup #marquette #munising #seney #newberry #soo #straitsarea #petoskey #gaylord #cadillac #traversecityI need to post this image again because WOW. I can't recall the last time nearly all of the United States was forecast to be below average.

After Thanksgiving, a large portion of the U.S. will likely see below normal temperatures into early December. And of course, there's southern Florida. 🌞

We wish to thank Jim F. for removing 5 large trees off of Trail 3 yesterday! Unfortunately there may be more after today's wind. #ontonagon #keweenaw #westernup #miweather
