NLI expects all power on today, cold coming
December 22, 2017
Northern Lights crews are making good progress, with about 708 members still out of power as of 6:30 a.m. today.

Trees are still falling under the weight of the snow, but crews are hoping to have most, if not all, members lit up again by the end of today.

If you haven't already, get ready for frigid temperatures.

There's a 50-percent chance of scattered snow showers through today, with light accumulations expected, and a high temperature of 27-degrees, but when the sun goes down this afternoon (though a few seconds later than yesterday!) the mercury is expected to drop to around 7-degrees in Bonners Ferry.

If you have livestock or outdoor pets, be sure to get them liquid water and a place out of the wind as a northeast breeze of five to 15 will make it seem colder.
