Waiting on snow? You are going to have to wait a little longer
Sunday saw crystal clear skies, and Idaho won’t see any changing conditions until next month.
Very consistent weather is on the way for the Gem State. After a week-long inversion, Idaho is again in for a week-long period of weather that won’t change much. No showers or snow in the forecast, and temperatures sitting in the 40’s.
Heading into the next weekend, that is when we will see the most change with 50’s returning as the highs on the valley floors. As for any shift coming to the skies, we will have to wait until February to see that.
Continue to stay warm and have a good week, Idaho!

She arrived with nothing — now Idaho Falls Is honoring a forgotten trailblazer – East Idaho News
When Rebecca Brown Mitchell arrived in Eagle Rock — what is now Idaho Falls — with her teenage daughter, Bessie, they had nothing but the clothes on their back and a few belongings.
It was June 5, 1882, and the 48-year-old Illinois woman who would one day become the world’s first female chaplain of a legislative body had come out West in hopes of being a missionary.
She also went on to play a pivotal role in the city’s first church, public school building and public library. Later, she was involved in the women’s suffrage movement and helped Idaho become the fourth state to recognize women’s right to vote.

Today, the Museum of Idaho is collaborating with a small committee to raise funds for a sculpture of Mitchell’s likeness. The 7-foot bronze statue is slated to be installed in the new Heritage Park near Snake River Landing in November.
This week on “It’s Worth Mentioning,” Rett Nelson speaks with Chloe Doucette, the museum’s managing director, about Mitchell and this project.
Doucette discusses why Mitchell came to east Idaho and her humble beginnings in the burgeoning community. She talks about Mitchell’s accomplishments, why many have never heard of her, and a new fourth-grade curriculum that will include Mitchell as a prominent person in Idaho history.
Doucette also explains why Mitchell is her favorite historical figure from Idaho Falls, and why you should donate to the cause. To learn more about the project, click here.

POCATELLO — A familiar restaurant space in the Costco parking lot has a fresh new concept.
The owners of the former Kingpot Korean BBQ & Hot Pot have rebranded and reopened as Super Yummy Bowl Mongolian Grill, offering a quicker, more affordable dining experience while keeping some of the flavors customers came to love.
Owner Bing Yang and restaurant manager Josh Gonzales closed Kingpot in February. While the interactive, cook-it-yourself concept had built a loyal following, they said it ultimately wasn’t the best long-term fit for the Pocatello market.
Kingpot Korean BBQ & Hot Pot to close, plans new restaurant
“We had no complaints about the food at Kingpot, and we’re grateful for the community’s support,” Yang said. “But we learned this will be a better business model for Pocatello.”
The new concept focuses on a traditional Mongolian grill format, where customers build their own bowls by selecting from a variety of fresh vegetables, meats, tofu and sauces. The dishes are then cooked to order, allowing for a fast, customizable meal.
Yang, who has a background in Asian cuisine, said he developed several of the restaurant’s signature sauces and recipes. Popular flavors from Kingpot, including bulgogi and spicy garlic, are still on the menu.
The shift also brings a lower price point. Bowls range from about $11 to $16, making the restaurant an affordable and accessible option for a wide range of diners.
“The food is all prepped and ready to go, so meals come out quickly — especially for people on their lunch break,” Gonzales said.
Ying added that the concept is designed to appeal to a variety of dietary preferences, whether customers are looking for vegetarian options or protein-packed meals.
The menu also includes appetizers, such as egg rolls and pot stickers, and desserts like cheesecakes and fried ice cream.
The restaurant has retained its bar, offering beer, wine and pre-mixed cocktails.
Super Yummy Bowl is currently in a soft opening phase, with an official grand opening planned for a later date. The business is also continuing to hire and encourages those interested to apply in person at 1599 Yellowstone Ave., or online through Indeed.
Hours are 11 a.m. to 9 p.m. Monday through Thursday, 11 a.m. to 9:30 p.m. Friday and Saturday, and 11 a.m. to 8 p.m. Sunday.
“Hopefully this new business model fits the community better, and we’re here to stay,” Gonzales said.
