Rainfall totals around two inches leave some communities with flooding. Heavy rain showers remain a threat on Tuesday. Here is a map of rain totals as of 4pm Monday. Over three inches in the mountains to the east and west of Hells Canyon. Nearly two inches im the McCall area and an inch and a half in Weiser, Ontario, Cascade, and Baker City.

Rain totals

The remnants of Hilary have pushed north of our area but tropical moisture remains giving us the the threat of some storms overnight and a better chance of storms with heavy downpours especially after noon on Tuesday. The potential for some additional flash flooding exists through Tuesday primarily in the West-Central Mountains and northeast Oregon where the heaviest rain has already fallen.

Drier weather will return with lots of sunshine and warm conditions on Wednesday and Thursday as Boise hits the mid to upper 80s.

There is a chance of mountain showers on Friday and a slight chance on Saturday but other than that I expect temperatures to warm to above normal for the weekend with Boise hitting 90-95 degrees. We can expect a decent amount of sunshine.
