well, looking at the monthly forecasts and other sites, right now it seems like its a bit cooler than years past. last year obviously was africa hot!! this year the week of, they are expecting temps in the high 80's low 90's.
MassiveChemicalPunk
04-07-2008, 08:30 AM
Yeah i saw this too. Add the factor of 50,000+ people crammed up in a Polo field and that should raise the temp around 10° more.

As a born and bred New Yorker who busts out shorts when the temperature hits the high 50's, I must say this news pleases me. 80's-90's is far more reasonable than I was anticipating.

beat me to the punch. I was gonna post a weather update. The forcast so far sounds good, I was in death valley this past weekend and it was cool out. Its been cool in Los Angeles as well.
Just dont let this fool you, seems every year I see coachella weekend predicted in the 80s, then hi 80s, then 90s, then hi 90s. The predictions get hotter as we approach for some reason. The weekends before and after are wonderful though, typical.
Lets watch!

I dont know about those temps, 77 in 2006? I seem to remember predictions like that but a spike in temp during the day into the 90s. I dont remember it being that low and I remember the year of 2004 the newspaper reporting 112.
2005 did have low temp though, I remember it was such a relief coming off of 2004 temps. 2007 looks right too.

Yeah... 2004 was just awful. My friend got heat-stroke. The worst part was the Horrible Choice during the day:
Option A: stay out of the tents, and suffer the full wrath of the Angry Dayball
Option B: go in the tents, so no more direct sun, but massive, stinking humidity from everyone's sweat.
02 and 03 were fine, 05 was *beautiful*, 06 was pretty good, 07 was pretty hot, but nothing like 04.

Because being shirtless is such a terrible thing when you are trying to stay cool and get some sun.

Dude,
In '06 it was in the mid- 90s on Sat, and the hig 90s on Sunday.
Are these temps you're posting for L.A., or for Indio? You know the closer you get to the ocean the cooler it gets right? The difference between the temp in the desert where the fest is, and L.A. near the ocean can be super drastic. I remember the mon morn after the fest in '06, we lest the campsite and it was sunyn and hoit again, and later that afternoon i went to the beach to burn time before my flight home. IT WAS FUCKIN COLD ON THE BEACH... LIKE IN THE 50s! So the difference in temp the further inland you get is quite drastic.

Agreed, I'm in Minnesota, where the winter is as long as ever, and we got fuckin snowed on last night hard, and it's supposed to happen again today. Why couldn't the 'fest be this week, so I could laugh at all my friends here lol? I just know, regardless of the temp at the 'fest, it's gonna be really nice in Minnesota that weekend. Probably temps in the 70s... the cruel irony of it... damn!
But yeah, I wanna tan and get some nice brown skin on my white ass while I'm there damnit!

Tan is not going to be a problem and you should be thankful if it is not near 100. It was ridiculously hot in '04.

First of all, don't call me dude, you retarded douchebag.
Those temperatures are historical temperatures for the DATES OF 4/25, 4/26, and 4/27 for INDIO, CA. Not the festival days. THE ACTUAL DATES-which makes more sense to pull than the festival days, SINCE THEY FALL ON DIFFERENT DATES EVERY YEAR.

Sorry about calling you "dude", "guy"...
I didn't think my reply was so scathing. And this one won't be either. Those temps you posted seemed so opposite from the temps of the 'fest in '06, that's why I questioned it. They must've had a cold-snap right before or right after the fest then (whatever those dates you posted represented... sorry I forgot the dates of the fest that year). God it's beautiful that mid-70s are considered "mild" or "cold" this time of year.

As I said before, I was there in '06, and know hot it can get. But there is a difference between a 90+ degree day in the desert, and a 90+ degree day in Minnesota in the summer. No humidity in the desert (I'm a scientist lol).
Yeah hot is hot, but it's also the fact that the weather has been ass for the last 6 months or so in MN, so I don't care how hot it gets. I'll take 100 degrees over 20 degrees at this point anytime.
flowbee
04-11-2008, 11:56 AM
Ideally, 90 degree max with a light healthy breeze
I've been in the valley when it got to 116 so I can appreciate a dry desert 90 degree afternoon

It got up 110 in '04 and that is just hot. Grew up in Chicago and live in Boston so I understand your enthusiasm for some heat but at that temp it is really ridiculous plus the tents become saunas and there is never enough shade. In '04 people were hanging out by the porto-johns just to get some relief from the sun.

Yessuh... but it's more common than you think. In '06, and I'm assuming last year too (unfortunately I wasn't there last year), people come from all over. When I attended in '06, I was coming from Minnesota, and meeting up with a friend from Houston, TX. And then we shared a rental car with 2 guys from Canada. Coachella is world-reknowned

yeah but these arent predictions they are averages and records...they do predictions ten days in advance.
Is everyone retarded?
I didn't pull the historical data for COACHELLA. I pulled the historical data for THE DATES OF THE 25TH, 26TH, AND 27TH.
no it was just misleading, I mean I dont think anyone cares about those particular dates each year unless they actually fall on coachella weekend. Most people just assume you are listing coachella dates and dont realize the dates are all historical and non related to coachella weekend from year to year.

This weekend in the bay area was the hottest so far this year. It was like 71 in SF at 2:30 am the other night.. It was insane.. Typically it should be about 59 at that time in SF. In the east bay it was like 85 during the day.. I think this MAY potentially mean a really hot coachella.

yahoo weather has it as 89 on Friday (so does the weather channel)... Accuweather had it as 94 yesterday... (i'm guessing 89, 90, 91 to be honest; maybe up to 92 by sunday, but there IS a cold front moving in to socal next week, which explains the colder temps, but it could be gone by sunday)

That's pretty much because it is impossible to predict the weather this far in advance. This thread won't become relevant until a couple of days before the weekend.
I recall the Monday before Coachella last year they were claiming the high would be in the high 80s and low 90s all weekend. Yeah, in the mornings maybe.

You are in Calgary, so I can only feel bad for you. By snow, I mean a sprinkle. It didn't stick. But reports say we might get snow that sticks tomorrow or Sunday. That is completely unheard of an absurd in Vancouver in April. At this time last year, I was wearing shorts and a t-shirt and was feeling totally ready for Coachella.

I blame the Republican weather machine. They want to stick it to all those libbyrul, America-hating bands. I guarantee it would be 80 degrees if Kid Rock and Ted Nugent ever played.

I was worried it wasn't going to be all that hot this year.
I'm in Edmonton, Alberta and it was almost spring, two weekends ago it was up to 25 degrees celsius, but now it's down to -10 and it's a motherfuckin BLIZZARD!!! We got about six inches of snow over the last two days. I leave on Tuesday driving so I am soooo ready to get out of the cold.
I am ready to COOK LIKE A PIGGYROAST!!! I neeed this soooo much please let the desert be hot hot hot hot hot!!! The heat is the best part of coachella for us northerners, AHHH I CAN"T WAIIITTT!!!!

So, every year the weather gets hotter just for Coachella weekend.
My question is, if the festival was moved to the 3rd weekend in April, would this change the weather, or is there something that specifically causes heat waves exactly coinciding with Coachella? Is it the extra body heat of the 60,000 people added to the population each day, plus the staff and machinery?
Inquiring minds want to know.
I'm glad it's probably not going to be 115, but I would prefer upper 80s to 100 degrees. :2c

The heat changing for the weekend is not a "chance" event.
With all of the face melting that will be taking place, its probable for them to see 5-10 degree higher temps for the weekend in the region.
