    Happy Mother's Day to all of the loving others out there! Today will be another hot day in the Coachella Valley, especially for this time of year! Highs will be in the 10-15° range above the seasonal norm. Winds will be fairly light this morning but will increase throughout the afternoon/evening. There is some upper-level moisture in the region, giving us a few high clouds to start the day. We started to notice a few light breezes yesterday, and that trend will continue into the next few days.

    The Global Change Research Act of 1990 requires the federal government to release a major, comprehensive report detailing how climate change will impact nearly every facet of American life. This report is called the National Climate Assessment and is used by countless federal, state, and local officials, as well as private businesses, to plan for the future. The 5th NCA came out in 2023 and was more than 1800 pages long. The report is meant to come out every four years.

    It's another toasty day here in the Coachella Valley. Highs today are in the upper 90s as high pressure continues to dominate over our region. Skies are clear and winds are minimal. Compared to yesterday, it's much warmer outside, with highs about 10° higher valley-wide. High pressure will continue to dominate in the days ahead. We will return to the triple digits by tomorrow, with Saturday being the warmest day of 2025 so far (for the Coachella Valley).

    We are continuing to warm up this week in the Coachella Valley as high pressure builds over the Golden State. This is also letting some drier air move in, giving us mostly clear skies. The exception is some lingering clouds over the mountains. Winds will also be very light this evening. We know heat very well here in the valley, but this weekend will see the hottest days of the year so far. That makes now a great time to go over some basic heat safety tips.

    Today is noticeably different from yesterday on a number of different fronts. Of course, it is much warmer outside today compared to yesterday. It's slightly cooler in the west valley thanks to some onshore winds coming in through the pass. Temperatures are a bit closer to the seasonal average in the east valley. It's also much clearer today, but there are some lingering clouds, mainly over the mountains. Most of the clouds are staying west of the Coachella Valley.

A First Alert Weather Alert will be in effect Saturday and Sunday. I am tracking the chance for some strong winds and a slight chance for some rain. Here's a look at some of the advisories from the National Weather Service in place for this weekend as well as a look at next week. https://t.co/vknCvPBQQu
