Harbor Springs Area Trail Report – 01/23
HARBOR SPRINGS AREA UPDATE via Harbor Springs Snowmobile Club – 01/23 It’s going to be a great weekend to ride, the trails are in good shape! The railroad grade was rolled on Tuesday & will be done again tonight & Friday night. Everything else was done last night except halfway to Pellston, we had to turn around at tower road due to mechanical issues which we will be diagnosing / fixing today. We also skipped the cross village loop, that had little snow prior to this storm so we are letting it settle a few more days before grooming again Friday. Beach’s Up North Tavern is having their vintage ride this Saturday! If you can’t make the ride come out to see the vintage sleds before the ride takes off at noon! <> <> FROM US National Weather Service Gaylord Michigan >> Cold overnight temperatures and wet roads could create some slick spots for the Monday morning commute.

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
