We could see record breaking temperatures on Friday before a cold front arrives Friday Night. If you're wondering if we'll see any rain, don't get your hopes up. There could be a stray shower or two, but that's about it. #idwx

Did last month seem warmer than usual? We've got the numbers to back up that statement! For the month of September, 5 out of 6 of our climate sites were in the top 11 warmest on record with Idaho Falls and Stanley seeing their 2nd and 4th warmest respectively. #idwx

Taking a look ahead, the first half of October is shaping up to be seasonably warm/very dry with little in the way of precipitation for at least the next two weeks. If you're a fan of cool mornings followed by comfortable afternoons, then we've got plenty of that in store. #idwx

Active fire behavior due to a combination of dry and windy conditions continues today on regional wildfires, especially on the 9000+ acre Pack Trail Fire in Wyoming. The latest GOES-18 fire temperature satellite imagery shows several active hotspots in our region. #idwx #wywx

It was a record setting day across the region. Burley was the only one of our 5 standard climatological sites that just missed setting a record. Cooler but breezy on Sunday. #idwx
