stagecoach weather

[cmsandiego]

According to accuweather.com it's looking like rain Wednesday through Saturday and 80 degrees for stagecoach. I'll be there rain or shine but this could get interesting.

[JNPatton]

I was just looking at the same thing. They are the only website I've found so far even attempting to forecast out that far. I think we'll know more by the end of next week.

[AmandaB]

I'll be so mad if it rains.. but fuck it i guess we will all be partying like hillbillies!

[Miss B]

i will be running around in the mud/rain if i have to!! Stagecoach... no matter what! didn't let a broken back keep me from it last year and a little rain sure as hell isn't gonna keep me from it this year!

[WLW]

Some of the other sites are saying high clouds and "pleasantly warm". I imagine the computer models are in disagreement. Never the less, it will be interesting.

[ant8er]

If it's any consolation, the website says that there will be a TOTAL rainfall of 0.05 inches for the 4-day festival (0.02" Thursday and Friday, 0.01" Saturday, and no rain Sunday). Apparently it doesn't take much precipitation for it to be considered a rainy day.

Also keep in mind that there's a reason why most weather-reporting agencies do not forecast past 10 days: Too many variables can affect the accuracy of the forecast. Wait until later this week (when the 10-day forecast is available) before you start panicking ;)

[Janell24]

I'm not going this year unless I win, I know this is mean but I hope its cold.

[KUZN EDY]

Damn it!.....





.........Wont get to use my mister!

[bnlfan5680]

now it is showing rain thursday...no fri-sunday rain...think it is just too early to tell.

[LuvMyPBR]

It will be fun either way!! We will all be to drunk to be bothered by the rain

[twodollapistol]

rain, shmain. who cares? Its 2 weeks to stagecoach, baby! If anything, rain might make it a whole (good)different festival than we have ever seen before! Bring it on!

[MissMandy89]

Mudd Wrestling !! :) hahaha just kidding

[ajrat46]

[Joey]

rain makes corn... corn makes whiskey.... whiskey makes my baby feel a lil friskey!!! Hell Rain is a good thing! if it does i hope it turns the polo fields into mud fields... be just like brad paisley's mud fest!

[ant8er]

Not to burst anyone's bubble, seeing that everyone is getting pumped up for "Stagecoach: Mud Edition", but the latest forecasts no longer have rain projected for that weekend. Sorry :(

The good news? The weather is projected to be in the low 80's. Warm enough to lay out for a tan, yet cool enough not to pass out from heat stroke. :D

No bubble bursting here! Sure loving the Good News though because the heat is horrible. ;)

[JNPatton]

Yeah, has anyone talked to anyone who went to Coachella week 1? Did rain actually fall there?

[JNPatton]

Mudd Wrestling !! :) hahaha just kidding

Where are YOU camping ;)

[Raquellita]

Oh my!

I couldn't resist on posting that pic. Haha I heard it rained, but don't think it was a fiasco.

[JNPatton]

Oh my!

very funny.....

[Miss B]

Rachel you are too funny!

[annie]

online it says a "drizzled" - not enough to make a difference tho.
it was apparently pretty cold once the sun went down tho!

[LuvMyPBR]

BAHAHAHAHA

[AmandaB]

My sister went and said it wasnt bad.. rained the first day..

[Raquellita]

Rachel you are too funny!
I just couldn't resist. Wouldn't it suck if that happened?

[cmsandiego]

I'm definetely not complaining of the updated forecast...I love wearing my shorts!

[hpckids]

it was cold and rainy on friday, beautiful saturday and sunday..forecast for the next two weekends is hot and beautiful, i will let you know as it gets closer! :)

[festivalfan]

I just hope it's not windy...

[jlrapp8]

I just hope it's not windy...

Its indio. Its almost always windy

[festivalfan]

Its indio. Its almost always windy

I don't recall recent Stagecoach weekends being windy. The last windy SC was 2008 (I think). It was Sunday, Tim McGraw, ....windy... and miserable.

[ant8er]

No bubble bursting here! Sure loving the Good News though because the heat is horrible. ;)

Well, whoever is going to Coachella for week #2 is getting screwed by Mother Nature. All 3 days are 100+ degree temp. with little to no cloud cover.

Oh well, better them than us!!! :D:D:D:D:D

[Raquellita]

Oh well, better them than us!!! :D:D:D:D:D
Shhhhhh don't jinx us. :eek:

[Jammers]

Indio rarely gets windy that far off of the freeway - the weather changes like crazy out here (i.e. last weekend it was sprinkling most of the day on Friday & in the high 60s/low 70s...this weekend we're expecting 101 on Saturday). My advice: check the forecasts as close to your departure as you can just so you know what to bring, it'll most likely be warm.

Last year was windy at night. I know, because that's how my tent broke. Duct tape didn't really cut it, lol.

Correction, it was no longer a tent, it was a teepee!

[Raquellita]

CORRECT!! Dang, I'd better get back to work here. I keep laughing out loud and people are starting to wonder what the heck I'm doing! OH NO! I forgot about lunch!

[Rose]

Thank you to all the locals and weather checkers keeping us updated.

I'm hoping for cooler temps myself.

[ratty2146]

You would think the men would be doing a rain dance

[cmsandiego]

The weather gods always smile:D down upon Stagecoach and 20% chance in the desert usually mean 0%. Hopefully that made sense to everyone... and not just me!

[camping350]

So far looking great not to hot:)

[Pugs39]

Just checked the 10-day forecast and it looks pretty good. On the site I go to it said Thursday and Friday are partly cloudy with the highs 81 on Thurs. and 83 on Fri. Then Sat. and Sun. are sunny with the highs 89 on Sat. and 92 on Sun. Of course, we still have 5 days to go and that could change. Hopefully not higher temps :)

Evenings around 60...so bring a light jacket if you tend to get a little chilled at night.

[keebzie]

Or bring a snuggle buddy :) Those work nice.

Haha, I lost my phone again like a month ago. I'm using my old phone from like 2005. I decided to wait until after Stagecoach to buy my new phone.

[keebzie]

300 mega smart points Adam! Now you won't have to worry too much about personal belongings.

Yay me! I did also lose my shirt, sweatshirt, shoes, chair, and backpack last year. I'm a bit of a mess.

[KUZN EDY]

107 in indio right now... Thank god they added the second weekend of coachella, that could of been us out there!

[keebzie]

A beautiful mess Adam.


I actually love it that hot. Everything dries super fast. Just wear lots of sunscreen and... theres plenty of water in beer.

[SuzieQ]

Sounds like the weekend temps will be perfect--chance of rain on Thursday but still nice temp. This spring weather has been crazy! I'm glad it will be cooler than the temps they had in Coachella this past weekend!

[hpckids]

ok so definately cooler today in the desert. I will post again tomorrow and wed for you guys :)

[bluegrass lover]

I'll be so mad if it rains.. but fuck it i guess we will all be partying like hillbillies!
You mean like bluegrassers! We bluegrassers camp rain or shine and always have fun!! That last big storm in March, I was ankle deep in water, in Temecula and had a blast!! Rain doesn't scare me!

[keebzie]

Thanks hpckids! It's nice to have someone actually there to report back.

I think I can hang with the blue grassers. I like your style :) Life's too short. Drink, dance and live it up!

[festivalfan]

Oh Thank you! that will be helpful. Not that it changes anything,,but it's nice to know what to prepare for.

[Joey]

[cheyemma]

[FestivalRides]

That's awesome! Couldn't ask for better weather!

Yesterday afternoon was a medium breeze, cooled the desert off great. It's now 5am, 67 degrees, Where I live the roosters are waking the hens and there is a slight breeze.

The StageCoach will be rolling in soon and it will be party time once again!!
