Another round of heavy showers continue to batter the area. Very cool temperatures will keep strong thunderstorm development away from Canyon County and most of Ada County. Stronger storms are likely in Elmore County. This is where we could see wind gusts with any storms over 40 mph and hail.

Ada County has already seen .30" to .80" of rain since Wednesday with another inch possible Thursday and Friday. Ponding of water is likely again on roadways where heavy showers & storms crosss.

Yesterday was wet and rainy for the Treasure Valley. The strongest storms produced heavy rainfall and hail up to an inch in diameter from north Meridian through North Boise around 5:30 pm. With Bogus Basin picking up an inch of small hail.

Hail Path

Prepare for colder temperatures to stick around into the weekend. Snow levels will drop to 3000 feet by Saturday morning and a light snow cover could be in the valley when you wake up Saturday. Sunshine will appear on Saturday but a few showers will pop up Saturday afternoon and it will be breezy if not windy at times Saturday afternoon.

By Sunday I expect sunshine but it will be quite chilly a low in the 30s and a high temp well below normal in the low to mid-50s.

Milder weather returns next week with high temps rising into the 60s.
