Thats brisk for August!
That a good question that I don’t have a factual answer for. But my best guess would be that due to the mostly agricultural nature of the area east valley it allows the air to cool down more rapidly. Does the Salton Sea have a cool “sea breeze” :) that would have an effect on nightly cooling?

What is it about Thermal that gives it such a different weather pattern than the rest of the valley? I noticed a major difference in temperatures before though not as great as this one.
