Freezing Fog and cold again
We start Thursday with more cold air and patchy freezing fog for the Snake River Plain and the upper Snake Valley. In the wake of a passing front yesterday, some mountain and Hills saw light snow and with the northerly breeze this morning, combined with single digit temperatures, make it feel like it’s below zero in spots with wind chills. Highs today will still be in the 20s, before we begin to gather more moisture into Friday and put shower chances into the forecast for snow Friday and mainly Saturday. Cold front arrives late tomorrow with 40% chance of snow landing in the valley early Saturday. A couple of inches into the benches and ridges of our mountains. Certainly slick.
With clouds and more visible moisture our temps will jump into the 30s and help us with better snow chances of the weekend, but another cold snap is coming after Sunday and will return to the 20s- average highs for this time of the year in the upper 20s for Idaho Falls.
