5 Day Outlook

Cold Water Safety

Temperatures will trend warmer through the start of the week with afternoon highs climbing into the 80s and low 90s by Tuesday. Unsettled conditions move in Wednesday through Friday with breezy winds, cooling temperatures, and chances for mountain showers and thunderstorms.

It will be tempting to cool off in the many lakes, streams, and rivers as temperatures warm up across the Inland Northwest. It's very important to remember that just because the air temperature may feel warm, those water temperatures are still very, very cold. Using caution and following water safety regulations such as wearing your life vest may be difference between life and death. Water may seem calm on the surface, but can be moving swiftly just below and cold water in swift currents leads to a dangerous situation when drowning deaths occur. Remember SAFETY FIRST when recreating in the water.
