Eastern Idaho is expected to experience a period of variable weather starting with light, spotty rain showers and potential thunderstorms on Wednesday morning. Following a mild Wednesday afternoon with temperatures reaching near 70 degrees, a significant weather shift is anticipated.

Widespread rain is forecasted to arrive by Thursday afternoon. By Friday, a low-pressure system moving to the south will cause temperatures to drop sharply, with highs struggling to reach the upper 40s.
