Each week FunintheUP gives you the TOP 10 Snowiest Locations in the Upper Peninsula. You will want to make sure you tune in LIVE on Facebook each week or check this page each week to see where the snowiest places in the Upper Peninsula are. Usually the first month or two months the locations change pretty frequently until we really get into winter and that Lake Effect snowfall really starts flying. Areas of the Copper Country, Keweenaw, and east of Munising are usually always in your TOP 10 over the long period. You can count on Calumet, Painesdale, Keweenaw county, Grand Marais, Newberry, and Ironwood areas to be very snowy through the winter season.
This Week's Top 10 Snowfall Locations in the Upper Peninsula
Updated each Monday through the end of winter, usually about mid May our last snowfall occurs.
Make sure to tune in LIVE Broadcast Monday's at 5pm on Facebook. The video will be posted here for you to watch if you didn't get to see it.

NOTE: There might be some slight changes to the TOP 10 list if snow stations haven't updated when the LIVE Top 10 report was filmed. Not a lot of snowfall this week, except for the Huron Mountains, south of Big Bay saw quite a bit of upper level winds that dropped some good lake effect snowfall to that area moving Eagle Mine up into the #8 positiong this week and the first time being in the Top 10 this winter. The top 7 positions remained the same.

NOTE: There might be some slight changes to the TOP 10 list if snow stations haven't updated when the LIVE Top 10 report was filmed. Snow totals weren't much for the week, below average for sure. We saw another week of warm weather. It rained yesterday as well. There was a little movement in the positions this week. Painesdale was updated to reflect the snow numbers I missed on 15th and 16th.

Wasn't much snowfall this week compared to last week. We hit a snow drought again this December sort of like we did last December. This week most stations stayed in the same positon as last week, Newberry moved up 2, Calumet and Houghton county both dropped 1 position, and Munising joined the Top 10 after being off it after week 3. Ironwood #1 dropped off the 10th position.

This week was a snowy one for sure, one of the snowiest you will ever see for a week across the Upper Peninsula as a whole. The snowiest was in the Copper Country from Greenland to Delaware along the spine of the Keweenaw. Grand Marais (Green Haven loc) dropped off for the first time from #1, a position it held since Nov 12th, and first time it took over #1 postion was Nov 5th. It likely won't return to the number one position now that the regular lake effect snowfall is in full force across the western and northern Upper Peninsula. It will probably stay in the Top 10 most likely through most of the year as it is in one of the snow belts in the eastern UP.
