Quick Facts

  • Today’s weather: Morning clouds then sunny
  • Beaches: 72-77 degrees
  • Mountains: 70-80s degrees
  • Inland: 88 - 97 degrees
  • Warnings and advisories: None

Cloudy mornings are back for areas close to the coast as a marine layer brings some cooling to Southern California. That also means inland areas will no longer see that triple digit heat.

Clouds will gradually clear by the afternoon and it's still going to be warm in most areas.

L.A. County coasts will see temperatures in the mid 70s, and low to mid 80s for downtown L.A. Valley communities will see highs from 85 to 95 degrees.

In Orange County, coastal areas will see temperatures from 72 to 80 degrees and 85 degrees more inland. For the Inland Empire, temperatures will still be mostly in the 90s, with the warmest areas reaching 97 degrees.

For Coachella Valley, temperatures are slowly dipping, with today's high now at 112 degrees.

SoCal Cooling Centers

In L.A., Orange, San Bernardino, and Riverside counties, call 3-1-1 or call for a list of cooling centers. In the city of Los Angeles, you can also find a list of recreation centers, senior centers and libraries — all good choices for cooling off — online.

  • Tip: Call the center in advance to make sure seating is available.
  • Tip: If the center you want is at capacity, or non-operational, head to a local, air-conditioned library and cool off with a book about ice fishing in Antarctica.
