This afternoon's Boise upper air (balloon) sounding had 1.57 inch of precipitable water (an indicator of rainfall potential). This amount ranks second most all-time in records dating back to 1948. Only Aug 21, 2023, with 1.67 inch from remnants of a tropical storm, had more.

🚿 An anomalously moist atmosphere for this time of year is moving into the region. Expect showers and storms each day through Thursday. Storms could produce locally heavy rainfall and flash flooding, so a Flash Flood Watch has been issued. @idwx
