DISCUSSION

Issued at 209 AM MDT Mon Jun 1 2026

A stalled low pressure system will produce a few showers and thunderstorms today. We expect one band of virga showers to pass through southeast Idaho this morning. This afternoon, redevelopment is expected across much of the central mountains and also across the hills south of Burley and into the southeast highlands. Most of this activity will be dry although some of the activity in the central mountains could be persistent enough for a few hundredths to accumulate. We had a chilly start to the morning with some locations across the Snake Plain into the eastern Magic Valley falling into the 30s. Expect another chilly night for Tuesday morning but temperatures should be a couple degrees warmer.

The low pressure system should pull away from the area Tuesday leaving us with dry weather and warmer temperatures. A weak system will pass north of our area. We have low chances for showers in the forecast for Wednesday Night into Thursday with that system across portions of the central mountains into the Island Park region. Temperatures will bounce back above average with highs in the Snake Plain and Magic Valley in the upper 70s and 80s.

AVIATION /12Z TAFS THROUGH 12Z TUESDAY/

Issued at 209 AM MDT Mon Jun 1 2026

Expect vfr conditions at TAF sites today. There will be some showers and isolated storms that will develop this afternoon. Think they will miss most of the sites, but there's a 20% chance that a storm could pass through a site. If this happens, the main impact would be gusty convective winds as these storms will mostly be dry.
