Thunderstorms clearing out late Wednesday; hot and sunny for Thursday

KIFI

We have low pressure sitting to our south, sending moisture and warm air in our direction for Wednesday evening. The low pressure pulls a little further away for Thursday. This will allow for some hot temperatures to take hold locally for Thursday. As we move into Friday and this weekend, we’ll see the low pressure move directly overhead, cooling us off and delivering rain this weekend.

Overnight, look for mostly clear skies with a low temperature in the mid 40’s.

Sunny this Thursday, with a low risk of mountain thunderstorms. High temperatures in the Snake River Plain will push into the mid to the upper 80’s. Winds will be breezy with southwest winds around 10-15 mph. Wind gusts as high as 25 mph.

Thunderstorm clouds roll back into the region starting Friday afternoon. We’ll see slightly cooler temperatures, with highs in the mid to upper 70’s for the Snake River Plain. Scattered thunderstorms will continue off and on through the evening.

Rain is likely before noon on Saturday, then showers likely and possibly a thunderstorm after noon. Mostly cloudy skies, with a high temperature in the low to mid 60’s.

There will be some scattered showers for Sunday, with a possible thunderstorm. Look for high temperatures in the mid 60’s throughout the Snake River Plain.
