Boise, ID – A powerful storm system is set to bring a mix of rain and snow to the Treasure Valley starting Thursday, creating hazardous travel conditions. Residents should prepare for slick roads and potential delays during commutes.
According to the National Weather Service, snow is expected to develop late Wednesday night in areas southeast of Boise before transitioning to rain by Thursday afternoon. The Upper Treasure Valley, including towns along I-84, could see accumulation before temperatures rise and change precipitation into rain. Commuters are advised to plan extra travel time and use caution.
Rain will persist through the day Thursday, with gusty winds up to 20 mph potentially reducing visibility. By Thursday night, the system will deliver widespread rain across the Magic and Treasure Valleys. Drivers should also anticipate standing water on roadways and monitor for updated forecasts as conditions evolve.
Looking ahead, the storm is projected to linger through the weekend, bringing additional rainfall and cooler overnight lows. Friday will see intermittent rain with highs in the mid-40s, while Saturday and Sunday remain rainy but slightly warmer. Travelers are urged to avoid non-essential trips during peak precipitation times and carry emergency supplies.
