Temperatures in southern California continued to increase on Wednesday, part of a warming trend which, according to the forecasters, is expected to bring three-digit heat to the Coachella music festival this weekend.
Meteorologists say that the summits this week could establish some daily records, especially Thursday and Friday through interior deserts, marking some of the hottest days at the Coachella Valley Music and Arts Festival in recent years.
The desert mega-popular music festival will launch the “end of our heating mini-vague”, the meteorological provisionists warned X, reminding participants to remain hydrated.
“We could break records tomorrow and Friday for Palm Springs, and perhaps certain areas of the Coachella valley,” Sebastian Westerrink, a meteorologist of the National Service in San Diego on Wednesday. The summits in the area should reach 102 or 103 degrees, before cooling slightly on Saturday – but still likely to reach the 90s.
The current temperature record in Palm Springs for April 10 and 11 is 101 degrees, Westerrink said.
The festival has not yet been public precautions for weather forecasts, but in its frequently asked questions, the organizers have declared that there will be many shaded structures and that there can be mist tents, which have been available in previous festivals. They also encouraged people to bring free and non -metallic water bottles for free that can be filled free in water stations.
On social networks, people are preparing for the heat of Coachella, sharing advice to stay cool, especially camping. The campers recommended by the regularly coachella participant bring a fan that they can use with a spray bottle, while another said that it was essential to remain hydrated and search for some of the air -conditioned areas of the place, including the Yuma tent.
“Temperatures, at least for interior areas, will be 10 to 20 (degrees) above average,” said Westerrink. “For the Palm Springs region, … it’s quite hot.”
According to Devin Black, summits in southern Southern California, and at least another daily record could be tested, according to Devin Black, a meteorologist in the meteorological service in Oxnard. The current Woodland Hills record on April 10 was set in 1988 at 94 degrees – which is also the top scheduled for Thursday.
Other interior valleys in the counties of Los Angeles, Orange and San Diego, as well as the Interior Empire, can expect summits in the bottom of the 90s on Thursday and Friday, before a slight recharge time begins on Saturday.
This time seems to be part of a one -month trend, with long -term forecasts showing hot and dry weather likely to stay in the coming weeks in southern California.
