AN ACTIVE WEATHER PATTERN WILL BRING MULTIPLE ROUNDS OF PRECIPITATION AND
BREEZY CONDITIONS TO THE STATE THROUGH THE MIDDLE OF THE WEEK. A PLUME OF
PACIFIC MOISTURE WILL TRACK ACROSS THE IDAHO PANHANDLE AND CENTRAL IDAHO
TONIGHT AND WEDNESDAY, BRINGING RAIN TO LOWER ELEVATIONS AND SEVERAL INCHES OF
SNOW TO MOUNTAIN PASSES. A STRONG COLD FRONT WILL THEN SWEEP ACROSS THE STATE
WEDNESDAY EVENING THROUGH THURSDAY, CAUSING SNOW LEVELS TO DROP TO VALLEY
FLOORS AND INTRODUCING THE POTENTIAL FOR SNOW SQUALLS IN THE EASTERN IDAHO
MOUNTAINS. MOUNTAIN TRAVELERS SHOULD PREPARE FOR MODERATE TRAVEL IMPACTS AND
SLICK ROADS, PARTICULARLY AT PASS LEVELS WHERE THE HEAVIEST ACCUMULATIONS ARE
EXPECTED. WINDS WILL ALSO INCREASE STATEWIDE DURING THIS PERIOD, WITH GUSTS
REACHING 25 TO 35 MPH AT TIMES. WIDESPREAD SHOWER ACTIVITY WILL LINGER THROUGH
FRIDAY BEFORE A HIGH-PRESSURE RIDGE BRINGS A WARMING AND DRYING TREND FOR THE
WEEKEND. EARLY NEXT WEEK, ANOTHER WEATHER DISTURBANCE IS LIKELY TO RETURN
UNSETTLED CONDITIONS TO THE REGION.
