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.

At LAist, we believe in journalism without censorship and the right of a free press to speak truth to those in power. Our hard-hitting watchdog reporting on local government, climate, and the ongoing housing and homelessness crisis is trustworthy, independent and freely accessible to everyone thanks to the support of readers like you.

But the game has changed: Congress voted to eliminate funding for public media across the country. Here at LAist that means a loss of $1.7 million in our budget every year. We want to assure you that despite growing threats to free press and free speech, LAist will remain a voice you know and trust. Speaking frankly, the amount of reader support we receive will help determine how strong of a newsroom we are going forward to cover the important news in our community.

We’re asking you to stand up for independent reporting that will not be silenced. With more individuals like you supporting this public service, we can continue to provide essential coverage for Southern Californians that you can’t find anywhere else. Become a monthly member today to help sustain this mission.

Thank you for your generous support and belief in the value of independent news.
Senior Vice President News, Editor in Chief
