.DISCUSSION...
Above normal temperatures and very dry conditions will continue
in the South Hills through Tuesday with a ridge of high pressure
overhead. Afternoon humidities will drop to around 12-15% with
wind gusts up to 20 mph. Poor overnight recovery is also expected
given overnight lows in the 60s. Changes are on the way Tuesday
night into Wednesday as moisture working overtop this ridge
feature overhead helps to introduce a 20-40% chance of showers and
thunderstorms. Best chances for showers/storms will shift east on
Thursday as a cold front moves across southern Idaho.
