Late-season warmup brings summer-like temperatures to several regions before incoming storms.

Several regions are seeing a late-season warmup, though the timing and severity vary. In Idaho’s Magic Valley, highs are forecast to reach the low 80s this weekend under sunny, dry conditions that could persist into next week. Elsewhere, temperatures are rising into the 80s in the Philadelphia area and mid-70s in Maine and the WENY region, while the Riverbend forecast calls for a high near 91 before a sharp turn toward storms Thursday. Cold fronts are expected to bring showers and cooler, more seasonable weekend weather to the Philadelphia, Maine, and WENY areas; the WENY forecast also points to a further drop next week that could bring frost. Overall, forecasts range from an extended dry spell in Idaho to a warm interlude followed by rain and cooler weather across several eastern regions.
In Idaho’s Magic Valley, breezy conditions are expected midweek, with occasional gusts reaching 25 mph; high pressure is keeping moisture out, and the dry pattern could last one to two weeks.
The Riverbend forecast warns that Thursday night’s storms could bring enough rain for ponding on roads.
In Maine, fall foliage is peaking in the north, while the foothills and interior are nearing peak color and the coast has moderate color.
In the Philadelphia area, humidity is expected to rise on Thursday and Friday, making the midweek warmup feel especially summerlike.
