Michigan Snowmobile Trail Report

WEATHER UPDATE via Michigan Storm Chasers >> What actually fell vs our forecast… 🎯
Pretty spot on! We had very minor fluctuations, which I know Meteorologist Joel Fritsma will likely dive into a full analysis later on this week, but overall the forecast was VERY solid.
Let us know how much you got!
(FYI: The UP has lake effect snow ramping up today which will add to their totals. That WAS included in our forecast but it HAS NOT yet fallen) #miweather #gaylord #cadillac #benzie #traversecity #petoskey

Snow out ahead of this system will overspread northern Michigan from southwest to northeast starting this afternoon. Accumulating snow is expected tonight through Sunday morning before transitioning to lake effect snow showers Sunday afternoon. Winds shifting from northeast to northwest and becoming gusty Sunday will result in blowing and drifting of the new snow cover. #miweather #gaylord #cadillac #benzie #traversecity #petoskeyA storm system lifting northeast out of Kansas will cross Lower Michigan Sunday morning.

Michigan Snowmobile Trail Report

WEATHER UPDATE via Meteorologist Brad Sugden >> SNOW POTENTIAL!!
Essentially, this is nearly the same map I shared previously. I just narrowed the ranges slightly. Shape is the exact same. I do think some lake enhancement from Lake Huron is possible, so, I highlighted that. Also, the higher elevations of the western U.P. COULD get slightly more. I'd say it's just a chance, but a big enough chance that I added it to the map.
This is just a fine, fine tune before the big event. Think of it as I just polished my Stingray before a car show 😛
Feel free to ask questions in the comments! I am ALWAYS here to do my best to clarify and help so you can know exactly what to expect. #miweather #keweenaw #westernup #marquette #munising #seney #newberry #soo #straitsarea #gaylord #cadillac #benzie #traversecity #petoskeySNOW POTENTIAL!!
