This weekend’s forecast for the Coachella Valley is not bad at all

Living in the Coachella Valley in August can be grueling. The year’s hottest month almost never gives any relief – with scorching daytime highs averaging 107 and even lows most nights only sneaking down into the upper 80s and 90s. But, the final weekend of August is going to be a little different. Yup, it’s cooling off people! Now yes, that still means triple digit heat, but barely – and for this time of the year in the desert, we will gladly take it.

Both Friday and Saturday are forecasted to see a high temp of 101, with Sunday sneaking up to 104 (some weather guessers are even calling for sub-100 degree temps on Saturday). Better though is the overnight lows, which are expected to drop down into the low 70s – meaning you might be able to actually turn off your A/C and open the windows for a bit.

After that, things shoot back up again – with highs of 108 on Monday and 109 on Tuesday. So enjoy the cooler temps while you can.
