Area Forecast Discussion
National Weather Service Boise ID
215 PM MDT Sat Jul 6 2024

.SHORT TERM...Tonight through Monday night...Breezy northwest
winds will continue through this evening as a system passes by
to the northeast in Montana. Winds should subside late this
evening as the upper level ridge off the coast begins to move
inland. As it moves inland, temperatures aloft warm
substantially by Monday into Tuesday, with the hottest
temperatures of the year so far.

.LONG TERM...Tuesday through Saturday...Multi-day 100+ high
temperatures are forecast throughout the week with the strong
upper ridge dominating across the region. Near record highs
possible from Tuesday through Thursday. An Excessive Heat Watch
remains in effect for all of southeast Oregon and southwest
Idaho. Some relief in the mornings as lows are generally 35-40
degrees less than afternoon highs, thanks to the very dry
conditions. Drier air prevails, although models continue to hint
at some increasing high- level moisture later in the week.
There is some indication for showers/storms next Saturday
evening, but the setup is very marginal and could easily
disappear in following forecasts.

daytime temperatures. Surface winds: W to NW 10-20 kt with 20-30 kt
