Much of their snow is holding up and many people are enjoying skiing this week. 🔹Don’t forget, NYE dinner and Honky Tonk party at Coyote! Reservations required for the dinner and music will be starting at 9PM. If not eating , please wait till 8:30PM to come for music… Call ahead to the bar for booking a seat … Seating will be limited , but allowing SRO for the music .. Come out for some Classic country from The Parks, hailing from Tennessee.. Gonna be a blast! 🥳 <> <> WEATHER UPDATE via US National Weather Service Gaylord Michigan >> Our first round of accumulating snow will continue today, bringing 1-2” for most areas by this evening. A second round of snow is expected to arrive late tonight, bringing another several inches of snow for most areas south of M-32 by Wednesday evening. Snow-covered roads may make for slippery driving conditions, and hazardous travel will be possible at times – especially across any exposed areas experiencing blowing snow from gusty winds. #miweather #gaylord #cadillac #benzie #traversecity #petoskeyOur first round of accumulating snow will continue today, bringing 1-2” for most areas by this evening.

Most of us got that quick burst of 1-2" (locally 3") earlier, and we're already onto the next system - later today!! Fast!
Notice we'll have a distinct rain/ snow line to the south.
Models have all come together nicely. That's a great thing because it lines up with my forecast quite nice. My snow map was posted earlier! Scroll my page!
Some areas are looking at up to 6"of snow.
Rain falling into cold snow pack roads will cause some very slick conditions. Dirt roads, I'm talking to you! You know this already, though haha.
Most treated roads to the south will be ok, though. Anywhere all snow all the time (north of I-96) will be very slow going!
Want a home with a fireplace and big windows to watch the snow!? (I dream of this) #miweather #keweenaw #westernup #marquette #munising #seney #newberry #soo #straitsarea #gaylord #cadillac #benzie #traversecity #petoskey
This is late Tuesday thru Wednesday AM only. Repeat that. 😅
About 1-2 inches could fall Tuesday AM before this second system moves in.
There will be some rain mixed in to the south. Please note that'll make back dirt roads quite slick for those folks.
Temperatures stay in the 20s further north, so it'll be a lighter, fluffy snow.
Roads Wednesday AM won't be fun.
This is followed by cold and some lake effect! More slick roads possible with that. #miweather #keweenaw #westernup #marquette #munising #seney #newberry #soo #straitsarea #gaylord #cadillac #benzie #traverscity #petoskeySnow time!!

Trail Condition: Decent; Base: 2″; Base is holding up, but we need more snow. 4-8″ expected this week, which would be a great help! Only grooming as needed right now. Per usual, roads are plowed down to very thin and ice. Last night’s below zero temps made things extremely firm with little lubrication, but with more snow and normal winter temps coming, that should improve!
