I’m 90 minutes south of gaylord, crowflight.
Got some wet flakes Tuesday afternoon.
Not unexpected...it is quite normal/common this time of year.
And...really...Gaylord is not subject to “lake effect snows” being some 120+ miles from Lake Michigan.
Fear pron.
Syracuse, NY (where I lived as a kid) is 20 miles south of Lake Ontario and 100 miles east of Lake Erie. We got a huge “snow shadow” from Lake Erie 100 miles to the west. Snow generally didn’t blow southward from Ontario, but the easterly patterns from Erie really dumped on us.

I’m 16 miles North East of Gaylord. Gaylord is our main hub.
We get 12 feet of snow a season. Sometimes a little more, sometimes a little less.
We are in a major snow belt.
If you’re from the Metro Detroit Area, you are a lot farther than 90 minutes away……try 4-5 hours.
