WEATHER UPDATE via Midwest Weather >> I'm going up north to the U.P of Michigan on Friday to chase a potentially significant lake effect snow event from late Saturday night through Tuesday. Snowfall accumulations could be 1-2', if not higher, as high-res model guidance comes in when we get closer.
Another lake-effect snow event is increasingly likely behind an arctic front next Wednesday night through Friday, which we will need to keep an eye on. #miweather #keweenaw #westernup #marquette #munising #seney #newberry #soo #straitsarea #gaylord #cadillac #benzie #traversecity #petoskeyI'm going up north to the U.P of Michigan on Friday to chase a potentially significant lake effect snow event from late Saturday night through Tuesday.

Michigan Snowmobile Trail Report

WEATHER UPDATE via Michigan Storm Chasers >> In the spirit of Christmas, here's today's forecast for December 23rd, 2025 that really doesn't feel much like the holiday season. Let's discuss!
Temperatures are slow-going to rise, then suddenly as we reach the afternoon hours, temperatures snap into the mid-40's for much of the state. Many locations close to the MI/OH border may surpass 50°F. Further north, mid-30's are likely. Sunshine will be noticeable out there today, as partly cloudy skies are the main icon. Winds will increase beyond noon as well, gusting between 20-30 mph for most, with some isolated spots in northeast Michigan, and along Lake Superior gusting 30-40 mph. Winds will be out of the west, and more details on the wind will be posted next. A light round of mixed precipitation is possible overnight into Wednesday for the Sault Ste. Marie region.

Frederic / Gaylord Area Trail Report – Sledheads of Frederic – 02/28

Close to toast is my assesment of the trails. Sunny and 34 in Frederic this morning. Trail crossings looked not so good on the way here this morning. Today is the last day of February, Only had one group of sleds ride into here yesterday and their pics are below here. Hoping there will be some riders stopping in on their way back from the U.P. today for a pit stop..Only 2 miles off exit 264.

Last year I had a few sales the first few days of March and its looking like it might be the same this year. We never even had a March storm last year, maybe this year we will get that. The trouble with that is riders from downstate cant get here in time to enjoy a storm like that as it only lasts a day or two……Like the song says we just have to be “ridin the storm out”……

Thanks for checking in. Pete

Michigan Snowmobile Trail Report

JORDAN VALLEY AREA UPDATE via Jordan Valley Trails Council >> Groomers ran north and south today, unfortunately neither operator had much good to report. The extended warm up from last week has taken a drastic toll on the trails. North of Elmira the trails were really thin today. The trails south of Alba are thin but flat and rideable as of now.
The rest of this week is expected to be cold but very little to no snow with high 30’s on Saturday. The end of next week is predicted to have high 30’s with some freezing rain.
Stay tuned, once we get sufficient snow our volunteers will be be back out there grooming! #jordanvalley #gaylord
