Coachella 2009 Weather Watch

[paganman7]

The high temperature on April 12th is estimated to be 86 and slightly cloudy. That's as far out as the forecast goes.


If the high temperatures are less than 90 all three days, I will be giving out hot dickings!

Werd.

[momof5]

Accuweather has a 15 day forecast and Friday 16 is supposed to be partly suny and 84. That is really comfortable for Coachella. I just hope its not too cool at night!

[billyboyblue]

Wow, the temp difference will be weird!

Hot dickings, indeed

[alpharuin]

I don't know about the weather, but the Coachella flu is here early this year and it is hitting hard.

[gaypalmsprings]

You are VERY lucky it wasn't this weekend. We have had high winds & sand blasts. Your tent would be in Blythe & your eyes would be all blood shot from the sand.

Jesus, do I like the sound of that. 84? Seriously?

[gaypalmsprings]

It's gonna be cold at night. Bring your knickers.

Here's a photo of what the winds did a couple hours ago in Palm Springs.

[frozen pilgrim]

DUDE.

gps, that's fucking intense.

[malcolmjamalawesome]

This is concerning. I need my manhugs to be sweaty. Will these temperatures provide enough mansweat, or should I bottle some prior to the event?

[menikmati]

I'll take scorching temps over high winds...high winds fuck up the sound bad.

[Amneeziac]

I like the scorching temps, it's part of the fun... I hope it's not cold this year. And by cold I mean below 90 degrees.

[BROKENDOLL]

You are VERY lucky it wasn't this weekend. We have had high winds & sand blasts. Your tent would be in Blythe & your eyes would be all blood shot from the sand.
I thought it would be a good idea to do a practice run with our canopy yesterday afternoon...I was wrong! I would have been better off flying a friggin' kite! If it's like this during the fest, our tent may end up in Blythe, but my eyes won't be bloodshot from sand, that's for sure! :rolleyes

[pancakespancakes]

I think 90 would be ideal for me.

85 would be great too, and 95 would be manageable.

[BROKENDOLL]

GPS, I'm gonna start a Lost and Found at my place. I'm almost certain anything missing from people's yards, etc in Palm Springs, is laying over here in Indio right now! Is this insane or what? I mean, c'mon...a blowjob's good now and then, but this is rediculous!

The Beetroots will push those lines back into place on Saturday.

[gmoneyak]

It's been really windy up and down the west coast this week, I'm glad we're all getting that bullshit out of the way soon.

I truly believe this festival will be blessed with 90 degree weather all weekend. I remember last year how the early 14-day forecasts before Coachella predicted much cooler weather than what ultimately became a reality.

I'm hoping for another repeat.

[gaypalmsprings]

tomorrow it's 76 here, & 48 for a low...just sayin...

[Boourns]

Jesus

48 degrees is FREEZING

Friday morning last year at around 5-6am must have been 48 degrees.

[sbessiso]

Yeah and I was FREEZING. I remember friday night and sunday being particularly miserable for me last year. I just get so cold!

[gaypalmsprings]

Yeah and I was FREEZING. I remember friday night and sunday being particularly miserable for me last year. I just get so cold!

you need to find a snuggle bunny

[rskapcat]

I am going to have to bring different pants for when the sun goes down. Eff 50 degree weather. I do NOT tolerate the cold as well as I did 15 years ago. I guess the Cut Copy hoodie will get some action as well. I'll be supah-sexy in my sweats in the evening. Rock on. ;)

[Boourns]

So glad I'm not camping.

[rskapcat]

You and me both, Frank. I'll be miserable enough in the cold without having to crawl into a cold tent and try to sleep. Where are you staying?

[Boourns]

Staying in Palm Desert. I'm looking at the place on google maps and it looks pretty close.

[rskapcat]

We're at the Indian Palms. Hooray for walking distance!

[ivankay]

Whoo hoo, Indain Palms! we got to do a head count soon to see who is all there. If the weather is in the 80's, you got a nice walk happening. i still think biking might be more fun for you. Someone posted a google map here from the Palms to the Polo Fields and got 1.8 miles. Not too bad on a nice day.

[eskamo951]

Yeah and I was FREEZING. I remember friday night and sunday being particularly miserable for me last year. I just get so cold!

I can't manage anything under 60...i know how you feel. And last year's heat wasn't so bad...but I love me some heat.

[sbessiso]

We can keep each other warm, Travis

[momof5]

I also would rather be really hot during the day than cold at night. At least when it is roasting during the day you can look for relief when the sun goes down. But shivering through the night is terrible for me . Besides,putting up with 100' is part of Coachella tradition and keeps the crowd dedicated to the music.Its not a picnic!

[BROKENDOLL]

We're at the Indian Palms. Hooray for walking distance! If the wind ends up blowing like it did last night, I'll be walking with you! You could ask me if we're in Kansas yet, and I could say, "No, not yet,ToTo..." Then again, you could tell me to go fly a kite...and I would!:thu

Someone posted a google map here from the Palms to the Polo Fields and got 1.8 miles. Not too bad on a nice day. I'm hoping it was just God's housekeeper dusting and tidying up the desert before company arrives in 2 weeks! Then again it could have been his gardener using one of those garden blowers over in the Palm Springs area, and blowing that shit over here to Indio! Either way, I spent last nite sneezing and wondering where the hell snot comes from!:rolleyes BTW...You won't need to count our heads, but you may see mine sneaking in/out of Indian Palms during the weekend...

[emtgreg]

The wind blows!

[MichaelDominick]

Highs here are still in the low thirties. Lows in the forties at night will be warm in comparison.

[BROKENDOLL]

The wind blows!
And, it sucks...don't forget that! :)

Not a good idea to use that as your basis, weather can change drastically in a matter of days.

[sacleonard]

All three days could feel like that one day in 2005. Mid-80s, maybe some clouds... or maybe not...

you guys are pussies. complaining about 50 degree weather and thanking god that you aren't camping. you should be ashamed of yourselves.

[SFChrissy]

Hey Bev...Let us know how serious the sprinkles are this week, please!!!

[malcolmjamalawesome]

This will be Coachella's finest hour.

[feather]

Hmmm this weather is lookin' nice!

[mvanwinkle]

I like coachella being hot..

[Sonicifyouwantit]

looks like the weather will be exactly how I've wanted it to be for years!

[scoop49er]

well thelast 2 years it was hot as fuck. however sunday last year was very reasonable and it was cold at night...

im bringing a long sleeve and putting it in the locker to be on the safe side..

if it does change it may go to maybe, maybe low 90's so i dont think we will see any 95-102 weather this year! :) im down with it! :)

[SFChrissy]

I think think the biggest attraction of moving the dates us is comfortable weather and a safety issue hopefully avoiding less incidents of heat stroke & dehydration. yayyyy...

[Alchemy]

I like coachella being hot..

Me too. It means I get to sweat instead of pee.

[stuporfly]

80s during the day with a crisp night air would please me tremendously. And really, that's what most important about Coachella.

[faxman75]

well thelast 2 years it was hot as fuck. however sunday last year was very reasonable and it was cold at night...


Odd, I found the coldest night to be Thursday night. I was shivering under my sleeping back all night. The other two nights I was fine.

I can't wait for this beautiful weather.

[redthreat]

So glad I'm not camping.

too bad you won't be able to hit the dome afterparties though.

this new weekend fuckin blows. coachella is supposed to be hot during the day you pussies! adapting to that heat is part of the fun. and then when the sun sets, all that work you put in staying cool during the day finally pays off, cuz night falls and its the perfect temp. now instead of being perfect at night, it will be super cold. what a load of crap. please move it back to the last weekend in april for next year goldenvoice!

[Jef-free]

I can't manage anything under 60...i know how you feel. And last year's heat wasn't so bad...but I love me some heat.

Spoken like a true eskimo.

Mid 80s all day and mid 50s at night sounds exactly like Chicago in August, so for everyone coming to Lolla, at least this will prepare you.

[HandBanana]

If this prevents my tent from becoming an oven at 8am, I am all for it.

[Boourns]

Me too. It means I get to sweat instead of pee.

Dehydration pee is the worst. What comes out is way too concentrated, which leaves the dick sore for a couple days. Yuck.

[Carnie100]

Why does it say rain this week (I'm in Northern California) when it's about 80+ today?

WTF. I was supposed to go camping tomorrow and I canceled because I thought there would be rain.

[rskapcat]

Dehydration pee is the worst. What comes out is way too concentrated, which leaves the dick sore for a couple days. Yuck.

It's just as uncomfortable for those of us without external plumbing. That's why I drink water even when I'm not thirsty. No UTIs, pleez.

I think I've figured out clothing to accommodate the milder temps.

[chaynes]

i am looking for 100 plus degrees like the past couple of years, hope it warms up...

Coachella is all about the heat!

[Boourns]

Remember how gorgeous it was last year when the clouds blocked the sun on Sunday afternoon? I wish that would happen every year.

Snow flurries could dust top of tram today

April 8, 2009

A winter weather advisory today for the Palm Springs Aerial Tram could mean snow flurries at the mountain station by later this afternoon, according to tram meteorologist Kevin Martin.

Martin said a high of 31 degrees is forecasted for the top of the tram today.

[kronz420]

I work in la quinta and it has been hot. Not just warm HOT. Im sure the sun gods will smile down on all the good vibes at coachella

[rage patton]

it is now showing all 3 days in the low 90's so the people who love it hot....... its gettting there... :)

Low 90's is much better than the high 90's/low 100's from 07.

I hope the weather is more like last year. It was much more manageable.

[Geno_g]

'07 was a killer in the campgrounds, last year was easy...

[paganman7]

Low 90's is much better than the high 90's/low 100's from 07.

'07 was assssssss! That, and the 3 day format, were the final straws in my decision never to camp again.

I agree a little bit. While I'm looking forward too a nice warm day temp. But its going to be fuckin cold at night. Last year after Justice walking to the campground I had to sprint it to my tent to get more clothing. But then again I'll just have to prepare and bring a hoodie and pants or somehting. But I hate carrying shit around all day long

[nationocean]

that's how they get you to buy a hoodie there..

suckers!

[Zippy024]

quit bitching over dumb things.

seriously! Wishing for it to get hotter than 90 degrees is absolutely ridiculous. If you want heat go to Burning Man.

[scoop49er]

as of 4/9/09:
friday 92
sat 95
sun 95

so its back to where coachella is normally so expect the same. its all good! i wonder if it will creep to 100? the heat always seems to find coachella!:)

[ADGZ662]

I work in la quinta and it has been hot. Not just warm HOT. Im sure the sun gods will smile down on all the good vibes at coachella

what the hell no it hasn't, its been the best weather I can remember leading up to the fest here's hoping that come next thursday it stays the way its been for the past week minus the wind

[scoop49er]

just assume hot. :)

[Boourns]

Ugh, same thing happens every year. Early predictions say 80's, which jump to the 90's a week before, and then up to the 100's the day before.

[jimmycrackcorn]

well it's REALLY nice outside right now... i got all the windows open

[benhur]

the heat doesn't bother me being a native and all, but problem is that coachella valley has been getting A LOT OF WIND lately, which would not be fun.

[TheWatcher]

what is the difference between brilliant, abundant and just regular sunshine?

I think "brilliant, abundant sunshine" is when you open the door and are immediately blinded, and after putting on your darkest shades and putting on a large, floppy hat you keep checking if you have on your sunglasses cause it's still too bright to see! Kind of like how an ant feels under a magnifying glass on a hot summer day. SPF 10+.

Anyway, seems like we'll have proof of the Coachella effect when the 3rd weekend of April is in the upper 90s for the first time in x years.

shit, i want rain damnit

[gaypalmsprings]

30 percent chance of rain in Palm Springs today

Desert Sun Wire • April 10, 2009

Pull out that rain slicker.

Palm Springs has a 30 percent chance of showers and thunderstorms after 11 a.m., according to the National Weather Service in San Diego.

Today’s high is expected to top out at 69 degrees with a low of 50 degrees.

Since July 1, the Coachella Valley has received 5.07 inches of rain. The average rainfall is 5.12. The Coachella Valley has been in drought-like conditions since about 2004.

This weather pattern should be gone by Saturday afternoon, said Stan Wasowski, a meteorologist with the National Weather Service in San Diego.

The bulk of the valley’s rain this season fell in December when the Palm Springs area received about 2.5 inches breaking a 1940 record that coupled with freezing temperatures shuttered the Palm Springs Aerial Tramway and caused about 200 students at Oasis Elementary School to be evacuated because of flooding.

In July, an early morning downpour dumped about an inch of rain in less than 30 minutes, spawning mudslides and flooding — the worst Cathedral City had seen in 20 years — and left more than 4,000 Southern California Edison customers without power.

[suprefan]

Man this is gonna backfire on GV by thinking it would be cooler. Watch it ends up in triple digits.

[HowToDisappear]

I only trust the national weather service (http://nws.noaa.gov). They forecast a week in advance, and so far, it's looking awfully good. I don't know where you're getting triple digits from:


Detailed text forecast
Tonight: Mostly clear, with a low around 52. Northwest wind between 5 and 10 mph.

Sunday: Sunny, with a high near 86. Northwest wind 5 to 10 mph becoming southeast.

Sunday Night: Mostly clear, with a low around 54. Southeast wind between 5 and 10 mph becoming calm.

Anyone who has lived in the desert knows that moving up the dates by two weeks is the greatest thing GV has done.

Why does everybody think they moved it up 2 weeks? :confused:

[higgybaby23]

Why does everybody think they moved it up 2 weeks? :confused:

Besides the inaugural year when the fest was in Oct., the other fests have been the first weekend of May or the last weekend of April. So yeah, the dates are two weeks earlier than previous years.

[suprefan]

So they could get Macca, what else? Yeah if it was mid 80's all weekend, itll be like 2005 all over again and end the streak of over 90 temps the last 4 years.

[mikeynla]

Last year it started on the 25th, so I guess it was moved up a week... well, 8 days to be precise. :)

I can't even fathom how much more energy I'll have this Coachella if that forecast holds.

[captncrzy]

I almost wet myself with excitement. That is the NWS forecast, after all.

[Tylerdurden31]

those lows are warmer than it is where I am. I'm excited for this weather. Can anyone verify...does low 90s in the desert feel that hot?

[TomAz]

Mike - 90 in the desert is wonderful. Warm but not at all uncomfortable or hot. it's gonna be perfect.

[TomAz]

weather.com says highs of 89/93/95.

Christ that's perfect. Not too hot for setting shit up, then just about perfect temperature for the desert.

Make it so, number one.

Tom - I'm excited. I had a feeling. I've been wondering what it would be like to be there and not feel like i'm being baked at 350 for 12 hours

[JustSteve]

So they could get Macca, what else? Yeah if it was mid 80's all weekend, itll be like 2005 all over again and end the streak of over 90 temps the last 4 years.

the days were set long before maccartney was signed or even thought of being signed.

[herro kitty]

Amazing weather like this opens up so many possibilities for new costu-- I mean outfits. Go Southern California!

[malcolmjamalawesome]

QUICK- URGENT RESPONSE NEEDED: What does this cooler weather mean for the status of sweaty titties?

[carokube]

apparently the forecast has changed since anyone last posted temps to this thread... mid-90s i think is sufficiently sweat-inducing.

It wouldn't be Coachella if it weren't mid 80s for the entire week before and then it hits 90s for the first time. This happens every year. Damnit.

[gaypalmsprings]

Maybe the tents will blow over to Blythe before the show starts.

[nbvwes]

hahaha looks like bonnaroo on a bad day...

or Glastonbury every year...





but be glad about the heat we had... the next weekend at Stagecoach (during Coach's 'normal' weekend) it got really, really cold the first night and the high was only like 85... it was FREEZING cold that first night really funny... the next day they told everyone at the gates to make sure they brought in a jacket or sweatshirt as no ins&outs would be allowed (obv)... but even with a change of clothes & a jacket it was STILL cold (& really, really windy too)!)

thank god for lockers!
