Temperatures topping 70° in the valley on Tuesday made for a very pleasant afternoon with bright sunshine and light wind.

An approaching cold front will bring thunderstorms to the West Central Mountains as early as overnight Tuesday night into Wednesday morning.

More widespread storms will develop Wednesday afternoon and evening. These storms will bring very heavy rain, hail, and gusty wind.

Through Thursday, the Treasure Valley will receive a good soaking around 0.75" of rainfall. In the mountains 1" to 2" of liquid totals are expected.

Snow levels will remain around 8000 ft ahead of the front, dropping to between 2500 feet west to 6000 feet east by Thursday night.

Heading into Friday and Saturday, it will be unseasonably chilly with rain and even snow showers in the valley.

We will continue to track these storms as the week continues. Stay connected right here and to my Facebook Pagefor updates on our potential severe weather on Wednesday.
