The National Weather Service has issued a Winter Storm Warning for the entire Treasure Valley until 11 am Wednesday for 3-5 inches of snowfall for Ada County with up to 6 inch amounts in the lower, western valley.
Heavy snowfall will impact the mountains Tuesday night through Thursday. 5-10" will accumulate in the mountain valleys, with 10-15"+ for the ski resorts and higher peaks. This means plenty of fresh powder days for skiers and snowboarders.
Meanwhile, snow mixes with rain, sleet and freezing rain making for extremely messy roads on Wednesday. Localized flooding is possible as temperatures warm and snow melt commences.
