Gaylord Area Trail Report – VisitGaylord.com – 12/06
Well here we are up to Dec 6 and we had a little bit of white fall on us over night. Well the weather says we are in a winter advisory mode we only have a slight dusting of lake effect snow on the ground. The pic below was at the trail head parking lot just west of Grayling from this morning. We are still a long ways off from any riding around here. Weather is calling for more snow north of us. So far I am not aware of any riding anywhere. I am keeping an ear out and will keep waiting on the real snow to hit us. Well the lake effect looks nice it takes an awful lot to add up to anything. With all the rain and wind we had in the past couple of days if it would have been cold enough we would have 3 feet now….but our luck just isn’t that good. Also for any of you that may be wanting to leave your sleds up north I have one storage unit that is big enough for 2 sleds available. Its a 10 x 12 unit. Still lots of room for outside trailer parking in our fenced and secure Sledheads Storage area too. Thanks for checking in.

Temperatures also climb above freezing through the overnight, remaining there until Thursday evening. The bad news is that gusty winds return late tonight into Thursday. Please see the attached graphics for the latest info. #miweather #gaylord #cadillac #benzie #traversecity #petoskey WEATHER UPDATE via US National Weather Service Gaylord Michigan >> Additional icing across the area appears less likely today with only a glaze of ice possible for some areas. Snow will continue to spread across the area, leading to 1-2" of wet accumulations for many south of the bridge before switching over rain. Strong winds are expected today with gusts to 40+ mph, potentially leading to more down trees and limbs from recent icing. Thunderstorms are also possible this afternoon. #miweather #gaylord #cadillac #benzie #traversecity #petoskeyAdditional icing across the area appears less likely today with only a glaze of ice possible for some areas.

WEATHER UPDATE via US National Weather Service Gaylord Michigan >> A cold night is on tap as temps fall into the teens and perhaps single digits across much of northern Michigan, especially in areas heavily impacted by the recent ice storm. This could lead to dangerous conditions for those without power or a safe source of heat. Looking ahead, it will be quieter Tuesday before another system brings the potential for another active wintry system for midweek. #miweather #gaylord #cadillac #benzie #traversecity #petoskeyA cold night is on tap as temps fall into the teens and perhaps single digits across much of northern Michigan, especially in areas heavily impacted by the recent ice storm.

Does anyone have any information that would explain why Antrim County was excluded from the the governor’s State of Emergency? Are there any numbers showing ice accumulation for Antrim as compared to surrounding areas? WEATHER UPDATE via Meteorologist Brad Sugden >> From Billy Miller in Gaylord. Absolutely wild how trees bend to the ground under the immense weight of the ice. Mary Lou Gagnon-Clark There killing us in Az too . Super sad .

Did you know a 30ft diameter tree can weight up to 7,000 extra lbs with that amount of ice on it? Crazy.
More frequent posting angers the Facebook algorithm. We can fight back by having you like or react to this post even if you don't actually "like" the content. (who does in this case, right?) But, it helps Facebook put the information out there in more news feeds. Heart, like, sad, anger reactions all work. Thanks! #miweather #gaylord Postings From Regional Pages On Facebook
