Sunny Afternoons and Crisp Evenings

January is one of our favorite months of the year in Palm Springs. After the throngs of New Year’s revelers depart, the city becomes a peaceful oasis of bright blue sunny skies and mountain vistas. January weather in Palm Springs means the mornings and evenings call for a light sweater when the air is clear and crisp. By mid-day, the temps typically get into the low 70s and, under the beautiful sonoran desert sun, the afternoons are perfect for lounging by the pool with the appropriate cocktail in hand.

Average Palm Springs January Temperatures:

  • Farenheit: 71° / 45°

  • Celsius: 22° / 7°
