Boise, ID – Idaho’s Treasure Valley wakes to damp streets and cool air this Sunday morning as showers sweep across the Boise area. The quick burst of rain marks a brief interruption in otherwise mild October weather, giving way to clearer, calmer skies early this week.
According to the National Weather Service in Boise, steady rain is expected through late morning before tapering off this afternoon. Roads along I-84 and into the foothills may stay slick for a few hours, so drivers should allow extra travel time. Rain chances drop sharply after 3 p.m. as drier air moves in from the northwest.
By Monday, sunshine dominates again with highs near 56°F and light winds — a refreshing start to the workweek. The air will stay crisp, especially during early mornings when lows dip into the mid-30s. Gardeners and outdoor workers should keep an eye on those chilly starts as the region edges toward frost season.
Tuesday and Wednesday bring ideal fall weather: sunny skies, highs in the low 60s, and calm winds. By late week, mild air holds steady before another round of possible showers builds toward Friday night and Saturday — the next sign of the season shifting toward colder patterns.
For now, Boiseans can enjoy a brief rinse today followed by several golden fall afternoons — the kind that make October feel made for Idaho.
