.DISCUSSION...
Issued at 103 AM MDT Tue Sep 15 2026

Chilly start to the morning with many areas falling into the 
30s. The frost advisory remains in effect until 9am. Temps 
should quickly rebound with most locations seeing highs in the 
70s today. Overnight lows look like they'll stay warm enough in 
most locations for Wednesday morning. Although there could be a 
few spots across the upper Snake Plain that could see some 
patchy frost. Temps rise to near 80 in across most of the Snake 
Plain and eastern Magic Valley on Wednesday. Meanwhile, a low 
pressure system will work into the Pacific Northwest. This 
system will lift monsoonal moisture into our region for 
Wednesday through Friday resulting in showers and storms. The 
low will pass through over the weekend and potentially we could 
see another round of frost advisories for Saturday and Sunday 
mornings.
