Is it going to happen...

The Grand Forks Herald had 3-7" of snow predicted for NE ND starting sometime this afternoon.

The radio just mentioned potentially 11" coming in.

Are we finally going to get some snow in northern MN?

All I can say is I hope we get something ! It's raining on and off right now, what a waste of precip Hope it cools down to switch it over. Glad we didn't head for L.O.W. today with this weather coming in.

Come on SNOW !!!!

Still raining!

Ice is really starting to build up on the trees.

that dang rain sured stung on the ride back in to the public access this afternoon. You shouldn't need windshield wipers on a sled

Currently have, at most, 2" of new snow on the ground in Crookston.

Grand Forks Herald said GF could potentially be receiving 10" more by the end of the day. I have a hard time believing that but you never know.

2" of snow is enough to get a guy excited, but not enough to do anything with.

Up by Aberdeen, we have about 6-7" on the ground it's not alot but it's better than nothing!!! Enough to get the sled out and put a few miles on it before my trip to Laramie, WY on wednesday!!!

So, how long after a first/new snow fall does it take for the trails to be groomed? I would think snowmobile clubs would be right on it.

most I have heard so far was 9 inches in the babbit area. we got about 6 inches here in big lake, but it is very wet and heavy. the lakes are all slush.

This snow is nice up here, but someone mentioned that the trails would hopefully get groomed soon. I think we're still 6" shy of groomed trails. I just came home from the hunting shack in Orr and I cross the Arrowhead Trail several times and even drive on the Arrowhead for 1/4 mile or so and it's nowhere close to ready. There's spots, in areas with heavy pine cover that still have brown grass and no snow on them. Just north of town, in Cook, only got 4" or so, and Orr only got about 4" as well. Spots got hit heavy and others not so heavy. It might be enough snow to get some small sections of trail groomed, but not much. It's suppose to be pushing 40 degress again by mid to late week. Not good.

Tower end of vermilion has alot more snow than the cook end.
