FREDERIC / GAYLORD AREA UPDATE via Sledheads of Frederic – 01/12
Sunday morning same old report. Just a few flakes fell yesterday and light snow in the air this morning. Same trailer count at the 2 hotels in Grayling. Zero at the Days Inn and 3 at the Ramada. There were a fair amount of sleds into Frederic yesterday and the pic below was at the Swamp. Most riders had the same thoughts that it was thinner as you came into Frederic and better to the west and north. Scattered snow thruout the week coming in the predictions so lets see what happens this coming week and maybe we will get a good MLK weekend. Funny how I talked about yesterday people that I have met over the years that were regulars. One guy came in and said he hadnt been in for 20 years since he was a kid. And another old timer Jim that I hadnt seen in years but instantly I recognized him when he walked in. The most and greatest one that came in was my friend Wayne who is a cancer survivor and while when he walked in it took me a second to recognize him it was a great feeling when I did. His sledding days are done but he still has the spirit. Thanks for checking in. Pete

WEATHER UPDATE via Meteorologist Brad Sugden >> Timing post!! Most of us got that quick burst of 1-2" (locally 3") earlier, and we're already onto the next system - later today!! Fast! Notice we'll have a distinct rain/ snow line to the south. Models have all come together nicely. That's a great thing because it lines up with my forecast quite nice. My snow map was posted earlier! Scroll my page! Some areas are looking at up to 6"of snow. Rain falling into cold snow pack roads will cause some very slick conditions. Dirt roads, I'm talking to you! You know this already, though haha. Most treated roads to the south will be ok, though. Anywhere all snow all the time (north of I-96) will be very slow going! Want a home with a fireplace and big windows to watch the snow!? (I dream of this) #miweather #keweenaw#westernup#marquette#munising #seney #newberry #soo #straitsarea#gaylord#cadillac#benzie#traversecity#petoskey... See MoreSee Less
WEATHER UPDATE via Meteorologist Brad Sugden >> Snow time!! This is late Tuesday thru Wednesday AM only. Repeat that. 😅 About 1-2 inches could fall Tuesday AM before this second system moves in. There will be some rain mixed in to the south. Please note that'll make back dirt roads quite slick for those folks. Temperatures stay in the 20s further north, so it'll be a lighter, fluffy snow. Roads Wednesday AM won't be fun. This is followed by cold and some lake effect! More slick roads possible with that. #miweather #keweenaw#westernup#marquette#munising #seney #newberry #soo #straitsarea#gaylord#cadillac#benzie#traverscity#petoskeySnow time!!
