High pressure will stay in control through Friday, keeping skies mostly clear and daytime highs running 5–10° above normal. Clouds may brush southern Idaho near the Nevada today as a weak low passes by, but rain will remain well to our south. Overnight lows will stay mild in the valleys thanks to a gentle southeast breeze, while some mountain valleys could see patchy fog late tonight.
By Saturday, a stronger system will arrive from the Pacific. Expect gusty southwest winds -20–30 mph, and widespread rain across southeast Oregon by Saturday morning, spreading into southwest Idaho by evening. Snow levels will start high—around 7,000–8,000 ft—before dropping to near 4,000–5,000 ft by Monday as another wave of moisture moves through.
Early next week, a new ridge builds back in, bringing calmer and warmer conditions by Tuesday. A weak trough mid-week could spark a few light mountain showers, but otherwise, dry weather is expected to return as we approach Halloween.
