The surface heats at differing rates, which cause a variety of updrafts on a warm day, thus causing bumpy conditions.
Frontal passage can be a cause for turbulence, but not in the case indicated.
High altitude, desert areas are well known for producing turbulence, and because of the high temps and high altitude, aircraft are already marginal in their performance. Makes for a bad combination.

Thermals rising up into the sky causing updrafts and downdrafts. LOL. Like flying into Las Vegas on a summer day. Quite the "rollercoaster" ride,lol.

Its wouldnt be bumpy because the temperature (It was only like 70 anyway), It was because the front that just passed had turbulence and wind following it. Whenever pressure changes rapidly, turbulence is going to be a problem.

Because in warm weather the air pressure is low and the opposite in cold weather so make your plane bumpy because the air pressure not stable

Certain positions in the air has thermals (updrafts of air). When entering it you can abruptly move upwards with the air. When leaving it you literally fall back to your original height.

It's called clear-air or updraft "turbulence".
