The temp did drop to below freezing last evening and we got 2-3 inches of snow and the temp is hovering around 25 degrees. All ditches and creeks are flowing full tilt with water from all the rain yesterday with no snow in the forecast for a week. Not good for the trails.

Dec 17 – The temps did drop to below freezing last night and we got 2-3 inches of fresh snow but all ditches and streams are running full due to the rain yesterday. No snow in the forecast until middle of next week. Grooming prospects do not look good for this weekend.
Dec 16-Rain and warm temps the last 5 days have our 50+ inches of snow in November just about gone. Temps are to drop tonight and maybe 1-4 inches of snow but that is all that is called for in the near future. So it don’t look good for grooming.
Trails are open and you can now ride your sleds legally. We no longer have good snow in most areas.
We need cold weather now to freeze them up.
Soo to Kinross is not frozen yet as well as Kinross to Raco. If you go for a ride I would recommend avoiding those areas that are always wet until we have cold weather because you will get soaking wet. There is no use us wasting fuel and breaking equipment until colder temps are called for.

It started spitting rain on and off yesterday noon and has been doing it ever since.
Temps are 40 right now and the yards are almost back to green grass. All that nice snow 55+ inches in November is mostly gone. Some is still packed on trails but we are almost back to square one as far as grooming and stuff freezing. This rain has got some streams and ditches flowing again too. The temps are supposed to drop later today and finally get some more snow 1-4 inches.
The temps are to stay below freezing but there is no snow in the near forecast other then the little bit tonight. Lets hope the weatherman is WRONG for snow!!!
