More smoke moved in overnight

Today, air quality is mostly forecast to be in the GOOD to UNHEALTHY FOR SENSITIVE GROUPS range.

Overnight, patchy smoke moved into the Clearwater Basin, Treasure Valley, and Panhandle. Light smoke remains across much of Idaho. Afternoon winds will help mix the air, but cooler temperatures tonight will trap smoke in valleys and low-lying areas until late morning. Air quality will be worst in parts of the Treasure Valley, Panhandle, and Clearwater Basin, where brief UNHEALTHY conditions are possible.

NOAA GOES-West GeoColor (true color) visible satellite image captured at 8:31 a.m. MDT on July 24, 2026 shows clouds moving through north Idaho. Areas of smoke are visible over Washington, Central Oregon, and portions of Idaho.
