Wednesday marks yet another "rinse and repeat" day of activity as a coastal low pressure system continues to send monsoonal moisture into the region. With the warm temperatures we're getting as we move further into summer, that means more storms are on deck today.
The risk for severe weather has been elevated today as more of Idaho has a marginal risk for severe weather. Expect scattered storms to move into the area this afternoon and evening. These on and off storms will at times bring heavy rains, hail, and gusty winds.
Around 4:30 PM these storms really ramp up in the central mountains with a 60% chance of rain which carries through midnight. The system will be more widespread and consistent in this region.
Our lower valleys will see one or two of these stronger storms roll through in the afternoon. Be prepared for impacts such as fallen trees, flooded areas due to poor urban drainage, and potential power outages.
