KEWEENAW PENINSULA UPDATE via Keweenaw Trail Reports – 03/09
Well…..after the previous “Debbie Downer” post….. here’s a bit more upbeat!
Very jealous Adam Garvey!
Adam rode out of Lac La Belle this morning, did some riding on the way to breakfast…..
Adam said, “100 miles before breakfast, now time to park them until it cools back down! Trails 124,122, 130 and trail 3 from Lake Linden to Copper Harbor still in good shape, a little snirt but not much 132 n 134 great except last 6 miles to highrock which is rough.”
Now that’s the way to start a day Adam! Thanks for sharing and making us all jealous!
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. Traveling for Thanksgiving soon?

WEATHER UPDATE via Midwest Weather >> ~First Polar Front Thanksgiving~ 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~

FROM Meteorologist Brad Sugden >> I 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. 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.

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. 🌞
