Smoky skies will continue to be one of the biggest weather concerns across southwest Idaho and eastern Oregon this week as wildfire smoke remains trapped over the region. While today brings a brief break from the heat, hazy conditions will persist, and additional smoke is expected to move in later today as winds shift to a more northerly direction. Smoke from ongoing wildfires across the Northwest is expected to continue impacting the region, with changing winds transporting additional smoke from large fires in Washington into southwest Idaho beginning Monday evening. Combined with lighter winds, widespread smoky conditions are expected to linger through much of the week. While rain is not expected at this time, the system could bring stronger winds, increasing fire weather concerns while smoky conditions continue across the region.
