WEATHER UPDATE via US National Weather Service Marquette Michigan >> Through this evening: A line of heavy snow showers marches south across the UP along a cold front. Hazards: A quick hitting 1-2” of snow is expected along this front. Gusty winds will create very low visibility in the heaviest showers. Roads will quickly become snow covered, and falling temperatures behind the front will also create slippery road conditions where melting snow occurred today. #miweather #keweenaw#westernup #marquette #munising #seney #newberry #soo #straitsareaThrough this evening: A line of heavy snow showers marches south across the UP along a cold front.

PARADISE AREA UPDATE via Paradise Area Night Riders www.paradiseareanightriders.org >> 1/26/25 20 degrees this morning and snowing. I picked up another 4-5" here at my place in the last 24 hrs. Just in case your wondering, we have close to 3' on the ground around here. Here`s whats been going on with the trails...... The traffic has been VERY heavy this weekend. We ran all the trails Friday and Saturday and will run them all again today/tonight. They are all in great shape....snow wise....but do take a beating with the heavy traffic. One thing to remember on the Falls trail #45....stay on the trail! If you ride off the trail in the swampy sections you will sink in the mud. We sunk a groomer a bit in the mud by just gettin off a touch and broke thru the ice and had to call for help to tow it out of the mud! Once we get everything groomed up today/tonight we will take the day off tomorrow and take 2 machines into the swamp south of town and work on that. We are REALLY trying to get that section open to get the traffic off of M-123 coming into town from the south. So there you have it. Trails are in GREAT shape!!!! Come on UP!!! LET `ER SNOW!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! Groomer Chris #paradise#newberry... See MoreSee Less
