Weather update

Last week, the temperature goes up to 100-degree making for one of the sweatiest Coachella days in recent memory. Later in the evening, the mild temperatures, light winds, and an explosion of color was created across the sky by the sunset with performances from star lineups, creating a core memory of Coachella.
