fire

Our amazing traffic reporter, Dave Burnett came into the Mix 106 studio this morning just before 7:40 with the news that ended up affecting Treasure Valley commuters all day.

Inmates cause some trouble in Kuna at the Idaho State Correctional Center on Saturday. An investigation is underway after an outbreak from some inmates. Windows were broken, a fire was started and several went to the hospital.

Prime Day is happening later this year, but that just means you don't have to hide your Christmas gifts for as long! Here are some of our favorite finds for this year's event. Be sure to keep checking back as we will update this page with new deals as we find them.

Sounds about right for September 2020, right? The sun seemed to be a little late to rise this morning and at first I thought it forgot, and then I realized it was just an intense amount of smoke.

The Treasure Valley skies aren't the prettiest we've ever seen them thanks to the Wildfires but there is one silver lining to all this. Small, but perhaps silver, nonetheless.

Not only are we dealing with bad air (silver lining on masks) we also have a critical fire weather conditions with lighting and wind heading our way.

I once pulled the fire alarm at me elementary school as a kid (I was kind of a Dennis The Menace) because I always thought it made the day fun and exciting. Today it happened it at work, and it wasn't as fun...

Life is tough right now. More people are out of work than we have seen in years. Kids are out of school, extra-curricular activities have been canceled, and it hurts that much more to see 12 families in our community lose their homes after a tragic fire this morning.

It's stories like this that recenter our world that is so often filled with meaningless worry. A loss like this is so hard to comprehend. 3-year-old twin brothers killed in a house fire found in a kitchen cabinet holding each other.

Students with classes in Riverfront Hall or the Boise State University Library were greeted with cancellations and concerns of fire (due to smoke) this morning.
