Hello – Several of our tractors went out grooming yesterday. Most of the system got hit once before the warm-up comes early this week. I groomed Trail 37 north to Boon and then south to Trail 35. Overall conditions were mostly Good and better after getting some chatter worked out. Crossing fingers that warm up is short and we don’t lose this good start to the season 🤞. My son reported things to be really good between Boon and Mesick .. He said conditions were a little thin around Brethren , but I’ve heard Northwest towards Thompsonville had plenty of snow. Please remember this is early season riding and things aren’t perfect out there.

WEATHER UPDATE via Meteorologist Brad Sugden >> SNOW TIME! Posted (Jan 11 2pm). A clipper system comes in Sunday with impacts lasting into Monday. This is SNOW POTENTIAL Sunday AND Monday. Don't come at me 9am Sunday morning and say "where's my snow." lol. As you can see the effects of this will vary GREATLY depending on where you are in the state. We go from up to 1" for most areas in the light blue to about 1-3" at best for most of the Lower Peninsula. The west side gets more because of a quick shot of lake effect with gusty winds and cold temperatures. The U.P. is the bread winner here with the center of the low pressure hanging out over Lake Superior for a bout 24hrs. That will cause more lift which we need for snow to develop along with more lake effect due to strong winds and VERY cold air. It'll be a fluffy snow that piles up rather quick. Winds will be very strong as times with a lot of cold air pouring in by Monday morning. Expect some areas in West Michigan to have wind chills as cold as -5 with the Western U.P. having wind chills as cold as -20. BRR! TIMING is posted on my page a post or two down.
