Keweenaw Peninsula Trail Report – 02/22
KEWEENAW PENINSULA UPDATE via Western & Southern UP Trail Reports – 02/22 My buddy Glenn doing his thing early in the morning keeping things in shape for ya in Toivola. <> KEWEENAW PENINSULA UPDATE via Keweenaw Trail Reports – 02/22 Well we try to share the good, the bad and the ugly so all riders can be informed on conditions in the area….. this is one of those bad…. to actually almost ugly posts…. As you know the club has had a string of bad luck when it comes to actual grooming equipment….. 4 of the 5 machines were broke down. One machine was repaired today and both running machines are currently out grooming. The warm temps the area experienced today are also not favorable in regards to trails even having a chance to “set up” Parts are supposed to be in for two more of the machines and I believe the club hopes to have them running yet this week sometime…I can assure you the Groomer Operators are doing ALL that they can possibly do to try to provide the best possible trails. I just want you to know the reality of the situation as of today…. A local rider who spends a lot of time on the trails had this to say about today’s ride “As far as trails go, I would honestly recommend people stay away until things improve. Usually by Keweenaw standards our “poor”may be “fair to good” to people from other areas, however this is about the worst I’ve seen it, in February anyways. I only rode Brockway, Lac La Belle Loop and the Eagles Loop…couldn’t take it anymore, stopping at Eagle Harbor Inn and heading back.” <> Keweenaw Trail Reports on Facebook >>>> <> WEATHER UPDATE via US National Weather Service Marquette Michigan >> While the snow has been delayed in getting here early this morning, we are still on track to receive generally 3 to 6 inches of mostly wet snowfall across most of Upper Michigan today and tonight. Expect the transition to pure lake-effect tonight, with the lake-effect machine continuing through the rest of this week into this weekend.

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. 🌞
