Heat Eases Slightly, Breezy Midweek

Hot--but not as hot. A little relief is settling into the Coachella Valley as a weak system moves into SoCal bringing a slight cooling trend through Wednesday.

Breezy winds out of the west will continue through this evening and again Wednesday afternoon. Desert slopes and wind-prone areas could see gusts between 25-45 mph at times.

Despite the "cooldown", temperatures still remain well above average, with highs hovering near the upper 90s to low 100s through midweek. Temperatures bump back up a few degrees Thursday and Friday.

Another weak system slides by this weekend, bringing slightly cooler weather and another round of stronger onshore winds by Sunday.
