Idaho – Rain taps steadily across Boise streets, and wet pavement could turn briefly slushy as colder air mixes in, creating a messy setup for travel through the day.

According to the National Weather Service in Boise, rain is expected to transition into a rain-snow mix at times, especially during heavier bursts this afternoon. Temperatures hover near 49°F, limiting accumulation but still creating slick spots on bridges and shaded roads .

Across Ada and Canyon counties, drivers along I-84 and surface streets should prepare for changing conditions. Visibility may drop in heavier showers, and brief snow mixing could catch drivers off guard. Plan extra time and keep headlights on.

Winds remain light overall, but occasional gusts could push showers across the Treasure Valley quickly. By late evening, precipitation tapers off, and skies begin to clear as cooler air settles in.

That shift sets up a much calmer pattern. Sunshine returns by Friday, with highs climbing into the upper 50s. The warming trend accelerates into the first weekend of April, with Boise reaching the mid-60s Saturday and low 70s by Sunday.

For now, watch for quick changes on the roads today. Conditions improve fast after sunset, but early slick spots are possible where moisture lingers.
