Newberry Trail Report – 01/20
NEWBERRY AREA UPDATE via TASA – 01/20 We received 8-10 inches of snow yesterday. The trails are good in the majority of the area. We We plan on grooming north to pine stump/holland lake, south to cut river and 45 to the falls tonight. We had some mechanical issues last night so 9 north and 498 were not groomed last night but were done Wednesday night. Every trail has some logging on it so please ride with caution and care! The details are below for specific trail grooming. Trail 9: We groomed all the way past pine stump to holland lake Wednesday night and will do so again tonight. Logging on County Rd 415 toward McMillan. Good to fair in spots! Grooming operations are finishing up but the county roads 415 and 422 are still being plowed to finish hauling everything out, so be careful roads are icy. Trail 498: Groomed Wednesday and will do so again today. Good. Trail 45: The gate is open to the Falls. We groomed out to county road 500 last night and plan to go all the way to the falls tonight. There is logging on the trail shortly after you jump on Trail 45 just past the Logging museum off of M-123. There is also be logging about 3 miles North of Skyline Road off to the right. Please use extreme caution in these areas! Both portions are being plowed and could be bumpy or rutted. Good to Fair in spots!! Trial 9/2: We groomed down to Borgstrom rd last night and plan to groom to cut river tonight . Good.

A clipper will bring a mixture of synoptic snow and lake effect snow for the entirety of Michigan. This is the first of multiple clippers between now and Monday. Lake effect areas may see totals into the 4-8" zone, with localized heavier totals possible along the Porcupine Mountains in the western UP. We DO have ample moisture on our atmospheric profiles for tomorrow, but the forcing is still suspect, so a solid blanket of 1-4" of snow, with isolated higher totals close to half a foot should occur by the end of our day Friday. The greatest chance at an area underachieving is in... guess what... southeast Michigan. Monroe and Lenawee counties specifically were in the T-1" zone at first call, but with a more-moist profile expected tomorrow, all locations (in an ideal world) should at least hit 1". We are also watching for the development of freezing drizzle mixing in, primarily in the Lower Peninsula as low-level temperatures favor this phenomena. Now, drizzle would hinder totals, but significantly increase travel issues as roads get coated with both the drizzle and the wet snow. We will have a freezing drizzle accumulation map out tomorrow morning.
Winds gusting 25-35 mph at times, primarily out of the west. Some snow squalls will mix in, which for those who don't remember, snow squalls exist to only cause headaches. These narrow bands of snow drop visibility from open skies to mere feet in the matter of seconds, which is never good, especially on fast-moving roadways. A snow squall can put down as much as a quick inch in 15-30 minutes at their peak intensity. Both morning and evening commutes will be impacted by snow or drizzle. Let's hope we don't light up the MDOT drive map with 25 accidents this time around, so please take your time. Give yourself that extra hour to travel, especially in instances of forced slow downs.

2 degrees this morning with a weird freezing fog/misty snow mix in the air. Everything is all white outside....really pretty. After enduring a few days and nights above freezing we finally got the break we needed from Mother Nature and it looks like its gonna stick around for quite a while!!! So here`s our plan......
We are running the Stump trail and the Point trails today but are gonna skip the far north section of the Point trail to let it freeze up more. Tomorrow we are heading south with 2 machines w/o drags and see if we can fix the water holes that opened up on the power line and in the Federal Forest, then Saturday run the high ground trails again and Sunday head to the Falls trail and see what we got. If all goes well hit the swamp south of town on Monday. Gonna be REAL busy for a while. I think we will need more help from Mother Nature with some snow but by next week we should be in better shape. Wish us luck!!!!
LET `ER SNOW!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
