Newberry Trail Report – 12/27
NEWBERRY AREA UPDATE via TASA Tahquamenon Area Snowmobile Association – 12/27
Welcome back! The gates are open! There is about 6 inches locally around Newberry and maybe a tad more North.
The groomers went out yesterday afternoon with only the tractor to push aside brush hazards. We will go out tomorrow morning to pan it down. It is snowing currently and 2-4 inches expected with possible higher accumulations further north toward Lake Superior.
There is not much snow South so they will not be heading that direction as of yet. There are still some ruts from the summer activities so we will try to pack the snow that is currently out there down and freeze it in. It will take a little more snow to fill in some areas. If you are going out for a ride PLEASE DO SO WITH CAUTION DUE TO THE CONDITIONS AND THE GROOMERS WILL BE OUT. PLEASE DON’T ASSUME YOU ARE THE ONLY ONES OUT RIGHT NOW. Your safety is our priority!
Trial 45: We went north and pulled some snow into a few water spots and will let it freeze in and will go back North in a day or two. We have have been to the County Road 500 and to the swamp from both sides as far as we could go.
Trial 9: We went North to the Pine Stump with the tractor only to push aside brush hazards and will go again tomorrow with the drag to pan it down. There is open water between M-123 and 3 Mile. It is about 50-70 feet long and 8-12" deep. It is passable though. Hopefully this will freeze up overnight.
Looking into the early part of the week a couple of systems to roll through with snow possibly on Tuesday and Wednesday.
Northstore: Gas and snacks and rentals. Sunday – Thursday 9am to 9pm. Friday and Saturday 9am to 11pm
Pine Stump: Gas and Food. Take out or heated outdoor dining. 12pm to 8pm.
USE CAUTION: Water hole between 123 north and 3 Mile Rd. Outside of Newberry Trail 9.
Groomers will be panning today on the North Trail.
There are 2 logging operations on our trails. Falls trail just north of Laurel Lake and trail #9 south trail near McLeod Rd. There is only 2 inches on south trail. Ride safe…

WEATHER UPDATE via US National Weather Service Gaylord Michigan >> Heavy snow will continue across the Tip of the Mitt into eastern upper over the next several hours (at least), while snow will begin to mix with sleet and freezing rain this afternoon and evening. Significant snow and icing expected into the overnight hours. #miweather #petosky #gaylord #soo #newberryHeavy snow will continue across the Tip of the Mitt into eastern upper over the next several hours (at least), while snow will begin to mix with sleet and freezing rain this afternoon and evening. Significant snow and icing expected into the overnight hours.
WEATHER UPDATE via US National Weather Service Marquette Michigan >> Potentially historic, record-breaking snowfall between 1 and 3 feet expected across all of Upper Michigan. Highest storm total snow expected in the central and east. Greatest potential for 4 feet is the high terrain of north-central. Strong winds and heavy snowfall rates will result in a long duration of blizzard conditions. Widespread impacts: dangerous to impossible travel, power outages, prolonged recovery time.

SENEY AREA UPDATE via Mater's Stop -N- Go Gas Station >> No big snow yet... #seney #newberry #snowphotosNo big snow yet.
SENEY AREA UPDATE via Seney Snowmobile Association >> Seney to Trail 9 and 440 hit tonight and Trail 43 to Bear Trap. South 43 also was hit. Here are a couple pics of Trail 431... #seney #newberry #snowphotos
GRAND MARAIS AREA UPDATE via Grand Marais Sno-Trails Assoc. >> Grooming early morning Saturday 3/14. Some spots got over 12" of fresh snow. Made for a great groom. This is a section of 88. More videos in comments. #grandmarais #newberry #snowphotos
WEATHER UPDATE via Michigan Storm Chasers >> One of the most absurd snow forecasts we’ve ever made here at MSC, we’ve had to add an impromptu orange color for higher totals.
Key Notes:
•Snow begins to work into Michigan late tonight, but becomes more widespread during the early morning hours of Sunday. This snow continues through Tuesday morning for the UP, and becomes a snow/freezing rain/sleet mix for northern lower Michigan beginning Sunday afternoon/evening.
•Winds will gust between 40-60mph statewide both on Sunday and Monday.
•This will be a full on blizzard for much of the Upper Peninsula
•Expect scattered power outages across the state
•Travel will be near impossible for the UP and northern lower
Snow totals will be between one and four FEET when all is said and done on Tuesday in the UP. Further south, a mix is expected which will keep accumulations lower, and also will provide a sharp cutoff of accumulations. The difference between a foot of snow and 2” may be the width of one county.
Further south, this system will end as snow for lower Michigan on Monday & Tuesday, which is why we have a wide area within a trace to an inch, and western lower in a 1-3” zone with wording of higher totals possible. We may need to adjust totals here as new data comes clearer for Tuesday.
Stay tuned for the icing portion of this forecast. Northern lower Michigan will see significant icing which is not shown or communicated in this forecast graphic or write up. #miweather #keweenaw #westernup #marquette #munising #seney #newberry #soo #gaylord #cadillac #benzie #traversecity #petoskeyOne of the most absurd snow forecasts we’ve ever made here at MSC, we’ve had to add an impromptu orange color for higher totals.

WEATHER UPDATE via Pictured Rocks Marine Weather Conditions >> Here are a couple probability maps for the snow and ice potential through the full duration of this upcoming spring storm (through 8am on Tuesday). It’s not often that we get to show 90% probabilities of getting 1.5 feet of snow, but that will be the case for much of our region. And the potential for significant icing has started to inch more into the far eastern UP, so we’ll need to keep an eye on that as well. I’ll provide some final updates tomorrow morning before the first impacts start to roll in. In the meantime, enjoy your “day off” from all this whacky spring weather! ⛄️💨🥶 #miweather #munising #seney #newberry #soo #petoskey #gaylord
