Nasty Drive This Morning!



...And it looks like it will be nasty tomorrow too!

...SNOW AND BLOWING SNOW ADVISORY REMAINS IN EFFECT UNTIL 11 PM MST THIS EVENING FOR ALL THE TREASURE VALLEY...MAGIC VALLEY... SOUTHWEST HIGHLANDS...SOUTHERN TWIN FALLS COUNTY AND OWYHEE MOUNTAINS...

A SNOW AND BLOWING SNOW ADVISORY REMAINS IN EFFECT UNTIL 11 PM MST THIS EVENING. A WINTER STORM WILL CONTINUE THIS EVENING PRODUCING ADDITIONAL SNOW AND CONSIDERABLE BLOWING AND DRIFTING SNOW TO THE AREA. WHITEOUT CONDITIONS ARE LIKELY IN OPEN AREAS. ADDITIONAL SNOW ACCUMULATIONS OF 1 TO 3 INCHES ARE POSSIBLE BUT THE STRONG WINDS PRODUCING BLOWING AND DRIFTING SNOW AND LOW VISIBILITY IS OF MORE IMPORTANCE. STRONG SOUTHWEST WINDS WILL BLOW IN THE MOUNTAINS AND OVER HIGHER TERRAIN SOUTH OF THE TREASURE VALLEY WHILE STRONG SOUTHEAST WINDS OF 20 TO 35 MPH WILL BLOW IN THE SNAKE RIVER VALLEY. THE WINDS WILL FURTHER INCREASE THE RISK TO THOSE PLANNING TRAVEL OR OUTDOOR ACTIVITIES.
