Colder Weather & Snow In the Forecast

MARQUETTE, MI - Sunday, February 14, 2010 - Although we've been blessed with mild weather as demonstrated in these photos of Saxon Harbor -- snow and colder weather is in the forcast. A Winter Weather Advisory remains in effect until 6:00 PM CST Monday.

Light to moderate snow will continue through Monday. The snow will decrease in intensity and coverage Monday evening. Total snow accumulations of 5 to 9 inches are expected through Monday. The heaviest snowfall will occur in the higher terrain from Ironwood to Wakefield. With the snow, roads will become slippery and hazardous. Areas of blowing snow in open areas will cause reduced visibilities at times.
