WEATHER UPDATE US National Weather Service Marquette Michigan >> Key Messages:
Overnight wet snow and light freezing rain could lead to some slick roads this morning!
Lake effect snow showers and gusty winds could lead to some rapidly changing visibility on the roads through tonight, especially close to Lake Superior and in the Keweenaw.

PARADISE AREA UPDATE via Paradise Area Night Riders www.paradiseareanightriders.org >> 2/10/26
25 degrees this morning with a light snow falling. We`ve received a couple inches in the last few days but nothing to brag about. We have been in a deep freeze for about a month now, but it looks like its gonna warm up a bit for the foreseeable future into the upper 20`s to low 30`s for highs and upper teens to low 20`s at night.
I haven`t been on here much cause nothing has changed....all our trails are in GREAT SHAPE!!!!! I will be on here more often now as this warmer weather comes along to keep ya`ll informed more. As long as it gets below freezing at night I don`t see much of a problem for a while but the warmer days will start hurting our swamp areas....but thats what I`m here for....to keep ya`s informed!!
COME ON U.P.!!!!!!! The riding is premo!!!!!!
LET `ER SNOW!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

HARBOR SPRINGS AREA UPDATE via Harbor Springs Snowmobile Club >> We had all three groomers out last night & everything was groomed other than the cross village loop. Overall the trails are in good shape but we really need some fresh snow. Warmer temperatures are on the way for this weekend which will really take a toll on the conditions & the ability to groom. We will keep everyone up to date as it gets closer. #harborsprings #petoskey #snowphotosWe had all three groomers out last night & everything was groomed other than the cross village loop.
