Another cool day for SoCal before the heat ramps up again

A concrete plaza with lots of street lots around it on a sunny day. A car passes by on the street on the left side.
Cooler weather continues in SoCal.

Quick Facts

  • Today’s weather: Mostly sunny
  • Beaches: 67-72 degrees
  • Mountains: 66-75 degrees
  • Inland: 87-91 degrees
  • Warnings and advisories: None

Enjoy the cool weather while it lasts! The National Weather Service says there's a warm-up on the horizon for later this week, with high temperatures close to what we'd typically expect this time of year.

For now, it'll be another day of overcast conditions in the morning followed by partly cloudy skies in the afternoon.

At L.A. County beaches, temperatures will range from 67 to 72 degrees. For the valleys, expect highs from 78 to 84 degrees, and up to 98 degrees over in the Antelope Valley.

Down in Orange County, temperatures along the coast will range from 70 to 76 degrees and up to 80 degrees inland. Over in the Inland Empire, another day of temperatures from 82 to 91 degrees. Looking ahead for that area — forecasters say there's still a slight chance of thunderstorm activity over the San Bernardino mountains this Friday.

Meanwhile, in Coachella Valley, hot conditions will continue with highs from 101 to 106 degrees.

You come to LAist because you want independent reporting and trustworthy local information. Our newsroom doesn’t answer to shareholders looking to turn a profit. Instead, we answer to you and our connected community. We are free to tell the full truth, to hold power to account without fear or favor, and to follow facts wherever they lead. Our only loyalty is to our audiences and our mission: to inform, engage, and strengthen our community.

Right now, LAist has lost $1.7M in annual funding due to Congress clawing back money already approved. The support we receive before year-end will determine how fully our newsroom can continue informing, serving, and strengthening Southern California.
