🎭 Culture
Jimmy Kimmel visited his South Fork Lodge today where he was joined by famous friends including Henry Winkler and Jelly Roll — a scene that shows Idaho’s growing draw for big names.
The lodge, co-owned with Oliver White, is a popular retreat along the Snake River.
📰 Economy
AAA reported diesel prices reached a record $6.07 today in Idaho, causing trucking companies to face higher fuel costs as global oil prices rise; gasoline rates in Bonneville and Clark counties are also increasing.
🎓 Education
A new, expanded welding and agriculture facility has opened today at Twin Falls High School to give students space to build real-world skills.
The project received nearly $1.1 million from the Idaho Career Ready Students Council grant, and it now adds 10 welding booths to serve more students.
🏛️ Government
The FCC is reviewing its E-Rate program — a vital funding source for local libraries — as officials warn that potential cuts may reduce essential internet services like printing and telehealth.
Public comments are accepted until Oct. 13 to support maintaining these resources.
Maintenance on Perrine Bridge started Monday at 7:30 a.m. and will continue through Thursday at 4 p.m. One lane on U.S. 93 southbound from the Jerome-Twin Falls county line to the Snake River is closed, so drivers should expect delays.
