For much of the year, Southern California's Coachella Valley weather is idyllic. The more than 330 days of sunshine and average daily temperature of 75 degrees make the valley a popular destination.
Although the area features mostly sunny skies and little rain, residents endure occasional gale-force winds and sizzling summer temperatures that climb well over 100 degrees. The mountains also get their share of snow storms, and in the highest elevations, cool year-round temperatures.
During an average year, summer daytime temperatures hover between 105 and 115 degrees. In the winter, temperatures average about 73 degrees.
During spring and summer, winds pick up in the mid-afternoon and blow 20 to 30 miles per hour, a result of the unique desert valley.
