Idaho's seeing snowflakes! The state's getting a frosty makeover as snow starts covering the ground. Winter enthusiasts are stoked for some skiing and snowboarding. Meanwhile, hot cocoa and roaring fires are becoming the norm as fall temperatures become the norm. Bring out those cozy blankets because it's time to huddle up and enjoy the chilly, picturesque scenery as the colors change. Idaho's winter wonderland isn't here just yet. Still, many people are looking forward to the frosty adventures and winter shenanigans that come with it.

This morning, the US National Weather Service Boise Idaho's Facebook page shared the first pictures of snowfall at Tamarack Mountain Summit, and it doesn't look like a light dusting of snow.

Tamarake wasn't the only one getting snow from the rain coming through Idaho. They also shared a photo of snow falling at Indian Mountain. Idaho must've missed the memo about fall because it's jumping straight into winter mode! Someone tell Mother Nature to slow down – we're not ready for snow shovels and snowmen yet. It's like Idaho's trying to break the world record for the fastest change of seasons.

Bogus Basin was excited as snowflakes fell this morning, sharing that "Just like that, only 3 days after our last event of the summer, the snow has arrived." Mother Nature pressed the snooze button on autumn and woke up winter.

 

With it snowing at Bogus, could we be in for an early snow in Boise? Last year in Boise, it was the snowiest winter in a decade. The earliest that Boise had snow was October 10, 2008.
