Fall has officially arrived, bringing with it typical mid-to-upper 60s temperatures for this time of year. The weather forecast indicates a mix of sun and clouds, with clearer skies expected as we approach the weekend. Today, breezy conditions are anticipated, especially in the hills and mountains, where gusts could reach up to 20 mph. While certain areas such as Salmon and Pocatello are expected to see temperatures hit 70 degrees, the forecast warns of a significant temperature drop on Friday. A robust low-pressure system will settle over the region, pushing highs down into the 50s and nighttime temperatures into the chilly 30s.
As we look ahead to later in the week, there is an increased likelihood of storms developing, particularly in the central mountains and eastern highlands by Thursday and Friday, raising chances for slight showers in the valley today. Residents are encouraged to prepare for this shift in weather as we transition deeper into the fall season.
