What is the prevailing wind direction in the Temecula Valley?
The afternoon breezes are westerly, so that would be west to east. As mentioned in the previous answer, the wind is sucked from the coast (from the west) to the deserts (to the east), especially in the summertime. You will see this mentioned in forecast as “onshore flow” and “afternoon breeze”. We also get offshore flow, which is the reverse, but is not as common.
