MARQUETTE COUNTY, Mich. (WLUC) - It might be Feb. but U.P. residents got a taste of spring on Feb. 8.

Snow and ice began to melt in Marquette County as temperatures climbed over 40 degrees. Some took advantage of this by going for walks and enjoying the sunshine.

Daniel Hall and Kaiylah Hanninen were among those in Marquette who took advantage of the warmth. They say the warmth has been a needed break from the cold.

“More than perfect actually, compared to what it’s been like last week, I’m actually glad it’s starting to warm up again,” Hall said.

“I honestly feel like I’ve been having some kind of winter depression, so this is so nice, and I feel so happy today,” Hanninen said.
