Comfortable heat will change dramatically by the weekend

Posted
and last updated

More comfortable heat is in place across the northwest with Boise temperatures just a few degrees above normal.

Expect mid-90s on Wednesday and low to mid-90s on Thursday with sunshine from start to finish each day.

By Friday we are back in the mid-90s with that sunshine continuing. Central mountain communities will continue with temperatures near 80 in Long Valley and in the upper 80s in Idaho City.

An upper-level ridge of high pressure will strengthen over the Desert Southwest this weekend before building northward. There is a likelihood of a return to triple-digit temperatures in the Treasure Valley. Boise could hit 105 degrees on Sunday, approaching the 125 year old record of 109° (1898).
