Looks like the Sault Ste. Marie area did the best with around 6 to 8 inches and 7 to 8 inches in the Newberry Area. A couple of inches in the Gaylord area. And then just rain and snow mixes elsewhere in Northern Lower Michigan with negligible accumulations. #miweather #gaylord #cadillac #traversecity #petoskey #soo #straitsarea #newberryIf you got snow last night, we'd love for you to tell us how much you got! Please include a rough time of when your measurement was taken, how long the snow was falling, your locations, and if possible, a picture of a ruler in the snow. PARADISE AREA UPDATE via Town Hall Snowmobile Club Paradise MI >> First measurable snow 2024! #snowphotos #newberryFirst measurable snow 2024! WEATHER UPDATE via US National Weather Service Marquette Michigan >> System snow changes over to lake effect snow tonight, continuing through Tuesday. The heaviest snowfall rates will be across the western snowbelts of the west UP tonight, then the west-northwest snowbelt in the eastern UP Tuesday. WEATHER UPDATE via US National Weather Service Gaylord Michigan >> A clipper system will bring our first decent shot at accumulating snowfall for the eastern UP, where 3 to 6 inches…or even a little more in a few localized spots…could fall by Tuesday morning…with the worst conditions expected between 5 and 10pm. This system appears to be more straightforward than the previous one. Be careful and leave extra time for traveling as we are all trying to get used to driving in the snow again. #miweather #gaylord #cadillac #traversecity #petoskey #straitsarea #soo #newberryA clipper system will bring our first decent shot at accumulating snowfall for the eastern UP, where 3 to 6 inches…or even a little more in a few localized spots…could fall by Tuesday morning…with the worst conditions expected between 5 and 10pm.

I normally do my reports in the morning but its been a busy day and I`m just gettin time now. Got all good news for ya`s.
Its 1800 hrs and 30 degrees and the sky is clearing. Woke up this morning to about 3 inches of slush on my deck. Kinda disappointed what with the forecast and all. We were supposed to get hammered last night but by 0830 it started to snow HARD! I picked up around 9 inches this morning thru about 1400 hrs. I`ve got a solid foot and a half on the ground here but one of our groomer drivers that lives south of town said he`s got close to 2 and a half feet. So thats the weather. Here`s whats been going on with the trails……
Last Thursday we took 2 machines and 3 guys and went around the Point trails #452 and #453. The main mission was to trim trees that were too close to the trail cause we got rid of our narrower Trooper groomer and our newer ones are a tad wider. We ended up cutting down 15-16 trees on the inside of the corners to give us (and you) more room. We got the trail all packed in with the groomers also. We were surprised we didn`t run across any water holes. Even the big one on the north side of #452 that we have had trouble with the last couple of years was dry!
Now, with all this new snow we came up with a plan…..Tomorrow we are heading to the Falls on trail #45 with just 2 machines. We`ll try and get all the water holes filled in and do whatever brushing needs to be done. Then Monday we are gonna head south and set the town trail then check out the federal forest section and see what that looks like. If we have time we might go thru our infamous swamp and work on that on the way back. We will start grooming all of them up as soon as the weather allows! Stay tuned for that.
Here`s a tidbit of info you might be interested in (or not), but you should.
Today we had a CPR and emergency first aid class for all groomer drivers. I don`t know if we are the only club in the state to be certified in this but if somebody else knows let me know. We are proud of this. Think of what this means to you if something would happen out on the trail. A HUGE thank you goes out to Renee Gray, head of the Whitefish Township EMS for doing this for us!!!!! THANK -YOU!!!!
I`m gonna be really busy the next couple of days as I`m going out on the trails everyday but I`ll try and keep ya`ll informed when I can.
LET `ER SNOW!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! MORE!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Alrighty folks. Groomer Chris here still alive and back in the saddle for another season. It looks like I better get the trail reports rolling early this year!!! I haven`t seen this much snow this early in a very long time. I`ve got a solid 8" here at my place and I`ve seen reports of a foot plus outside of town. It looks like this weather pattern will last for at least a week with cold temps and lots of lake effect snow to come!!! I got a good feeling for this season!!!!! Mother Nature sure does owe us.
We are ready to go. We have our sunk groomer (remember) back from the manufacturer with a brand new engine and the other 2 machines are good to go. The brushing and signing is about wrapped up on the high ground. All we need is Mother Nature to continue to cooperate and this season is gonna be awesome!!!!
Just thought I would jump on here to see if I remember how to do this stuff and let ya`ll know we are still here. Keep checking back for the most honest trail reports for the Paradise area.
LET `ER SNOW!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

The first polar front will sweep through the Midwest on Thanksgiving day bringing temperatures 10 to 15 degrees below average. Lows below zero are expected for some across the north and in the single digits down to I80. Highs this weekend will only be in the single digits and teens for areas down to I80. Dangerous wind chills of -20 degrees or colder are increasingly likely, especially north of I90. The graphic below shows the temperatures on Sunday morning.
Another polar front will move through next week bringing even colder temperatures. Expect reinforcing shots of very cold air over the next couple of weeks. #miweather #keweenaw #westernup #marquette #munising #seney #newberry #soo #straitsarea #petoskey #gaylord #cadillac #traversecity~First Polar Front Thanksgiving~

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. I can't recall the last time nearly all of the United States was forecast to be below average.
