Harbor Springs Area Trail Report – 12/24
HARBOR SPRINGS AREA UPDATE via Harbor Springs Snowmobile Club – 12/24
We are riding the winter rollercoaster here in Northern Michigan. We got about 6” of snow yesterday, but temperatures are supposed to be above freezing from Thursday to Monday with possible rain.
We are getting reports that the trails are pretty decent, no dirt spots but still hitting rocks here and there. We do not have any plans to resume grooming, we need more snow.
Merry Christmas!! Hopefully everyone asked Santa for some snow. ❄️🎄

WEATHER UPDATE via US National Weather Service Gaylord Michigan >> After the warm temperatures and melting snow during the day today (Thursday)...temperatures will drop off rapidly after sunset. This will lead to any wetness re-freezing on area roadways, which could lead to icy roadways and/or black ice formation tonight through Friday morning. Back roads, which became slushy today will refreeze as well, leading to complicated driving conditions. Finally, sidewalks and parking lots could also become hazardous to navigate. #miweather #gaylord #cadillac #benzie #traversecity #petoskeyAfter the warm temperatures and melting snow during the day today (Thursday)...temperatures will drop off rapidly after sunset.

WEATHER UPDATE via US National Weather Service Gaylord Michigan >> Perhaps a few lingering light snow showers this morning across the eastern upper peninsula. Otherwise, a brief “mild” and generally quiet spell is expected through Friday. Partly sunny and colder Saturday. Snow is expected to develop Saturday night and continue into Sunday morning. The snow may mix with or end as rain later Sunday. Light to moderate snow accumulations are possible. #miweather #gaylord #cadillac #benzie #traversecity #petoskeyPerhaps a few lingering light snow showers this morning across the eastern upper peninsula.

WEATHER UPDATE via 9&10 News >> Some snow this morning starting to move out. Expect drier and brighter skies for the rest of the day!

WEATHER UPDATE via Meteorologist Brad Sugden >> There will be some melting before the weekend, but, if you are heading north the current snowpack is looking decent for many winter sport areas! Some areas of the UP that have had excessive lake effect this season are pushing 5-6ft of snow depth! #miweather #keweenaw #westernup #marquette #munising #seney #newberry #soo #straitsarea #gaylord #cadillac #benzie #traversecity #petoskey
Too bad that color is 40-50 inches, not 50-75 lol and its 1-2 ft not 3-4 ft
This supposed to be current snow depth? I’m 7 miles south of pine stump and we’ve gotten well over 2 foot in the last 48 hours alone. There’s way more than 50” out there. Way more than 75 even.

HARBOR SPRINGS AREA UPDATE via Harbor Springs Snowmobile Club >> Groomer operators Cody & Dale were out yesterday cleaning up after the storm & making our trails flat again. Everything was done except for the Cross Village loop (Trail 710 & 71 from Niswander Rd) and the part of the Alanson trail (71 from Krump rd to Trail 7). Overall the trails are in great shape, the best they’ve been in years!
Temperatures are supposed to be above freezing tomorrow & on Sunday, let’s hope that does happen and if it does let’s hope it stays cloudy. #harborsprings #petoskey #snowphotos
WEATHER UPDATE via US National Weather Service Gaylord Michigan >> Lake effect snow lingers today across NW flow snowbelts with generally 1-3” expected across N.L. and 2-3” across E.U. with locally higher amounts possible. Winds gusting at 25 to 30 mph will create blowing snow and reduced visibility, making travel hazardous at times– Be sure to exercise caution if traveling today! #miweather #gaylord #cadillac #benzie #traversecity #petoskey #soo #newberryLake effect snow lingers today across NW flow snowbelts with generally 1-3” expected across N.L. and 2-3” across E.U. with locally higher amounts possible.
