Rain, thunder, and lightning make their way to the desert

It’s been an interesting morning in and around the Coachella Valley.

Some rain, thunder, and even lightning have made their way into the region.

The weather forecast calls for the possibility of thunderstorms throughout the day on Wednesday, clearing out by Thursday and then warming up for the weekend. Oh joy.
