Twin Falls residents will enjoy a pleasant Halloween as the forecast calls for a high of 59°F (projected between 3 p.m. and 4 p.m.) and trick-or-treating temperatures in the low to mid-50s with light winds around 5 mph with gusts to 8 mph, and no precipitation expected.
This forecast makes the evening ideal for enjoying outdoor festivities.
Twin Falls introduced a program that lets homeowner associations and groups apply for permits to plow residential roads during heavy snow.
Permits cost $75, require insurance and a snow placement plan, and will be available on the city website—officials say the move addresses gaps in current snow removal services.
During National School Bus Safety Week, Twin Falls law enforcement reminded drivers to stop for school buses with flashing red lights and an extended stop arm (first offense fines start at $300 with harsher penalties for repeat violations).
Drivers traveling in the same direction must stop, while those on a four-lane road headed opposite the bus are not required to, though caution is urged for the safety of children.
