Autumn is in the air, with periods of drizzle — at least for several days until early this week.
For today, a marine layer will keep temperatures cool for the rest of the day.
In the Valley, temperatures will hit a high of around 80 degrees, “about at least 10 or 12 degrees below normal,” according to National Weather Service meteorologist Mike Wofford.
Downtown Los Angeles is looking at temperatures in the low to mid-70s. L.A. County beaches are expected to be in the low 70s.
