Near-record heat again today

Highs hit 118 yesterday, the hottest day of the year as well as a record-setting number. In Palm Springs that 118 tied the previous record from 2020, and in Indio and Thermal records were broken.

Highs remain well above our seasonal norms (108), but the humidity is the complicating factor for the next couple of days. Temps today will hover near 110, and that’s true all the way through the weekend. Monsoonal moisture is slipping in from the Southeast, ensuring higher dew points into the weekend. As we head into

Highs still running a bit above average

We hit 113 degrees yesterday and we’ll be similar later this afternoon as high pressure propels temps a few degrees above normal (108). That ridge of high pressure will be persistent, lasting through the week. This has prompted an Extreme Heat Warning for areas surrounding the Coachella Valley, up until Friday evening at 8 p.m.

Typical summertime forecast this week
