FREDERIC / GAYLORD AREA UPDATE via Sledheads of Frederic – 02/22
So we are supposed to get a storm, multiple inches supposed to start this afternoon. Right now we have had about 2 inches of lake effect since yesterday. If we really get 6 to ten inches it should make it passable for this coming weekend. I busted my plow truck back out and am ready to move some snow. I will do video update later in the day if the snow is coming down like they say it is going to.
Sunday afternoon I decided to run away and loaded up my sled and headed up to Grand Marais to the Superior Hotel. I got there about 4 and got settled in nice and cozy. Got up monday morning and headed out on a ride, rode the crazy 8s. Went to Melstrand, Bear Trap, Shingleton and back to Grand Marais. 95 mile ride. Trails were not perfect but they didnt beat me to death either so I was happy with that. Monday nite about 6 new inches fell and it was snowing and blowing hard so I decided I didnt want to fight the visiblity factor and came back home. It was a nice escape.
Pics below are from different stops along the route. Had a great burger at the Strongs Tavern yesterday plus their fries were really good too. Also pizza at the Dunes in GM was super good too. Lets hope for a real weekend of riding in the Frederic area. Thanks for checking in. Pete
FROM Meteorologist Brad Sugden >> I need to post this image again because WOW. I can't recall the last time nearly all of the United States was forecast to be below average. Before anyone gets on the "SEE CLIMATE CHANGE IS FAKE" train... one of these below average maps DOES NOT negate the other 500 above average ones. Trends, folks. Trends. Nothing is a straight line. The warming temperature trend line is full of peaks and valleys with an overall increasing trend. 🙂 #miweather #keweenaw#westernup #marquette #munising #seney #newberry #soo #straitsarea#petoskey#gaylord#cadillac#traversecityI need to post this image again because WOW.

After Thanksgiving, a large portion of the U.S. will likely see below normal temperatures into early December. And of course, there's southern Florida. 🌞
