Warming temperatures followed by Santa Ana winds

Warmer than yesterday, temperatures climbed into the upper 80s and low 90s this afternoon. The average for the date in Palm Springs is 85°. Clear skies persist through the evening with a northwest wind 15-20 MPH.

The trough of low pressure, that brought the very windy conditions Tuesday and Wednesday, is moving east and a ridge of high pressure is taking its place over the west coast.

A Wind Advisory has been issued for the Inland Empire on Sunday. Gusts near 50 MPH are possible which can blow around unsecured objects, and could result in power outages.

Around the Coachella Valley, gusts will be weaker but are still expected to reach 30-35 MPH in the low desert.

Aside from the strengthening offshore winds on Sunday, this weekend will be an enjoyable one across the mountains and desert. Temperatures will continue to warm into the mid and upper 90s on Monday for Palm Springs.
