Winter weather advisories are still in effect for much of eastern Idaho, but even with difficult driving conditions, emergency services are always just a call away. "You will have a downpour, the next day you won’t. In fact, in the morning you’ll have snow, in the afternoon you’ll have sun, and that evening you’ll have rain," Bannock County Sheriff Lorin Nielsen said. While the weather in east Idaho can be quite unpredictable, recent conditions have been consistently cold and snowy. "When the wind blows around here, it blows," Nielsen said. "And you can have two inches and it’ll be six inches somewhere else and 12 feet somewhere else because it all just blows in different directions."
