FREDERIC / GAYLORD AREA UPDATE via Sledheads of Frederic – 11/30

Forty degrees and sunshine… snow from earlier in the week is melting…

<>

Well we have one more day till the trails officially open. It also gives us another day of melting in the 40s which is supposed to happen for almost the whole week. Just like I thought when we had the awsome snow that fell earlier in the week. If you dont get out and ride it right then its going to be gone and thats exactly what happened. I am so glad Big John and I got out for a ride during the legal riding time between 11 and 2 during deer season. Now tommorow will be legal riding time but there most likely will be a slushy mud bowl. On the bright side I can get the rest of my signs back up. For those of you that are new to my page I am only open here in the winter and my new hours plan is that if the snow is not rideable if I have something else to do I am out of here. I am not usually to far away and the number of 989 Dig Snow rings to my cell phone. This is my 26th year in here so I have figured the weather patterns pretty well over the years. If there is good snow the sledders come rolling in. If you are heading north to the u.p. just call to make sure I am around. I also have trailer parking down the road at my storage facility if you don’t want to haul your trailer back and forth. Thats about it for now. Do some snow chanting cause we are going to need it. The picture below is what we really want to see. Thanks for checking in. Pete

Michigan Snowmobile Trail Report

FROM Great Lakes Weather & Climate >> 📡 Statewide radar loop through 10 AM today (11/9) shows our two distinct snowmakers in progress.
The first one is the synoptic (aka "system") snow associated with a low that is moving east through southern Ohio. The counterclockwise flow around the low is shown over Metro Detroit as moisture interacts with decreasing temps, leading to this morning's snowfall.
Over the U.P. and Lake Michigan, the north winds are ushering in the coldest air of the season, which activates lake effect snow and transitions to the second portion of this snow event. Counties in the corner of southwest lower Michigan, northern Indiana and Illinois are set to receive a firehose of lake effect over the next 24-36 hrs, resulting in accumulations that could push one foot.
Portions of northern lower Michigan and the Saginaw Bay region are also set to receive lake effect snowfall through this evening, with amounts of 3-6 inches possible, with isolated higher amounts. #miweather #keweenaw #westernup #newberry #soo #gaylord #cadillac #traversecity #petoskey
