A break from triple digits will be here soon but smoke still continues

An excessive heat warning is still in affect for the Treasure Valley along with smokey conditions but some relief from the higher than normal temperatures is coming.

That warning ends on Wednesday followed by a weekend with mid 90's but a steady incline comes after that at the start of next week.

The Durkee fire has also closed the I-84 corridor from Ontario to Pendleton.

The Durkee and Falls fires in Oregon are creating the most smoke for the western Idaho region. Air quality will continue to be poor along with open air burn bans for Owyhee, Ada, Canyon, Payette, Gem, and Washington counties.

As always make sure to stay hydrated in this heat and avoid extended hours outside with the bad air quality.

Have a good week Idaho.
