It’s only getting warmer today under cloudy skies while we continue to dodge rainy weather.
Plan Your Wednesday
Wednesday brings much warmer air with highs reaching the 60s for a second straight day in Spokane and Coeur d’Alene and near 70 degrees in the Columbia Basin and LC Valley. An ongoing atmospheric river system will dump around an inch of rain across the Northern Idaho Panhandle mountains through early Thursday afternoon. A FLOOD WATCH is in effect for Bonner County in Idaho and Lincoln County in Montana. Be alert for high creeks and streams. Rain will shift to the south later in the day, bringing a chance of rain back to the Spokane River valley.
What We’re Tracking
Exceptional warmth continues through Friday with 60s and 70s each afternoon. Rain chances will be elevated through Thursday morning before a drying trend late tomorrow. Rain returns on Friday but finally eases up for a while over the weekend. Along with sunnier and drier conditions, temperatures this weekend will drop about 10 degrees to highs in the mid-50s.
