Frederic / Gaylord Area Trail Report – Sledheads of Frederic – 12/13

Pretty darn good would be an understatement for a first snow. Only had 8 sleds ride in the shop here yesterday but there were plenty buzzing around town all day with everyone reporting decent trails. All the pics below are from yesterday the 12th so judge for yourself.

BigJohn called me about ten last night and he was still out riding, he got in 69 miles so thats a good start to the season. I still do not think this is going to last but the people that are out there now are enjoying it. When I got here there were 2 vehicles stuck in my park n ride lot and they shouldnt have pulled in there till I had a chance to plow but I got it plowed and by the time I was done with the lot there were five more truck and trailers pulling in. I dont mind people parking back there but I do take donations for plowing…….

Also I have a sign on the front door saying mask required and for the most part everybody is great about it but then there are the people that think they dont need to wear one. I turned several away yesterday. The safety of my self and my customers is most important to me instead of making a sale. A couple were pretty rude like FU to me and another one called me pussy…..Really nice to see how the best in people come out……I will continue to turn people away if they think a simple thing like wearing a mask is a little to much…..Thanks for checking in and please ride safely. Pete

Michigan Snowmobile Trail Report

WEATHER UPDATE via Midwest Weather >> ~Snowfall Forecast Sunday-Monday~
A disturbance from the north will phase together with a piece of energy from the south to create a more robust system than previously thought. 2-4" of snow is expected for portions of MN/WI/MI that will cause some travel impacts, especially Monday morning. Lighter amounts are expected west and south but I might increase amounts some down into IA if the pieces of energy can phase together faster. Snow plowing season is starting in the UP so contact All UP Snow Blowing! #miweather~Snowfall Forecast Sunday-Monday~

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.

FROM U.S. National Weather Service (NWS) >> Turning our attention to the end of the month🥶
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. 🌞
