Tornado Warning Lifted for Southern Idaho, but Thunderstorm Threat Persists
A Tornado Warning issued for parts of southeastern Idaho near the Utah border expired at 3:45 p.m. Wednesday, according to the National Weather Service. The warning had covered several locations in southwestern Caribou County, northeastern Oneida County, southeastern Bannock County, southeastern Power County, and northwestern Franklin County.
The severe thunderstorm that prompted the warning was located 13 miles northeast of Holbrook Summit, or 14 miles northwest of Malad, moving east at 50 miles per hour.
While the Tornado Warning has been canceled, the threat of severe weather is not entirely over. The Pocatello office of the National Weather Service has issued Severe Thunderstorm Watches that remain in effect until 9 p.m. These watches indicate that large hail and damaging winds are still possible across the region.
