Clouds are on the increase and light snow will move into western Idaho around 5 am spreading east into Boise around 5:30 am. Right now I am expecting just under an inch of snow in Ada County with an inch and maybe just a bit more near the Oregon border in areas like Homedale, Parma, Payette, Fruitland, Ontario, Vale, and Weiser. 1" or more of snow is likely in McCall with 2" expected at Tamarack and Brundage. This storm will weaken and run out of gas as it moves east so less snow is likely further east. I do not expect any snow in eastern Idaho.

Anyone traveling west on I-84 on Monday night may run into snowy roads in eastern Oregon by midnight where there is a Winter Weather Advisory. Road conditions will improve there as Tuesday progresses with the snow ending shortly after sunrise Tuesday over the Blues.

Wednesday looks dry and milder with lots of clouds and valley temperatures rising into the low-40s. The wind is likely to increase causing a very chilly wind chill. On Saturday another weak system will arrive with maybe an inch of snow in the mountains and rain showers below 4500 feet.

Dry weather will return for Sunday with temperatures continuing nearly eight degrees above normal.

Skiers may see some more appreciable snows but likely not until at least the first week if not the second week of January.
