The public would like the change.

The day wasn't designed for a manager's picnic.

For many Idahoans, Labor Day Weekend means one last chance to get out and explore before the leaves change and cooler weather sets in.

Over the Labor Day holiday weekend, Idaho State Police responded to a head-on car vs. semi truck collision that killed 4 people near the east Idaho border.

It was a crazy Labor Day weekend in the Magic Valley in 2020. All across town people reported fences knocked over, trees down, power outages, and roof shingles ripped off.

Safety is the biggest concern, and now 3 states are going to work together to get people home safely.

Gas prices in Idaho are expected to make a jump in the next few days and stay high into mid-September.

It’s worth the risk and I’ll tell you why.

If you are able to get near water this weekend, it would be a wise move. Expect to see many Idahoans out on the Snake River boating, kayaking, paddle boarding, and finding other ways to stay wet.

Although Idaho fire crews have done an effective job stomping out a high number of blazes throughout the state in recent weeks, the risk remains still very high as state officials prepare for the final four to five weeks of the current fire season.
