Meteorology/Dispersion Discussion

Last Updated: 2026-09-24 21:20:49.997002 MST

Airshed charts and summary table can be found here and maps can be found here.

Friday a disturbance moving into the PacNW pushes a cold front through north ID into western MT bringing increased winds and deep mixing. North ID may have cloud cover and cooler temperatures and showers for POOR to FAIR dispersion. All other areas GOOD to EXCELLENT dispersion with some locations seeing 30 to 50 mph wind gusts.

Saturday disturbance tracks into southern Canada with strong southwest flow aloft over MT and north ID. GOOD to EXCELLENT dispersion over MT. Western parts of ID may have stronger inversions as surface high pressure reaches the area for POOR to FAIR dispersion but the rest of ID should see FAIR to GOOD dispersion with stronger winds.
