Congress has cut federal funding for public media — a $3.4 million loss for LAist. We count on readers like you to protect our nonprofit newsroom. Become a monthly member and sustain local journalism.

Happy Tuesday! If you live in certain parts of the foothills you likely experienced a flash of short and intense rainfall last night. That was a trough passing through the region. Any leftover showers from that system have moved to the far east of the region by early this morning.

Quick Facts
    • Today’s weather: Moderate, sunny
    • Beaches: Highs in the mid to upper 60s, lows in the lower to mid 50s
    • Mountains: Highs from the upper 50s to mid 60s, lows in the mid 30s to mid 40s
    • Inland: Highs in the mid 60s to around 70, lows in the mid 40s to around 50.
    • Warnings and advisories: Beach hazards statement, Frost advisory, High wind advisory

In Los Angeles County, today it will be sunny. Highs will be in the mid-60s to around 70 from the beaches to downtown Los Angeles and the San Fernando and San Gabriel valleys. Expect lower-to-mid-60s in the Santa Clarita Valley and the mid-50s to lower-60s in the Antelope Valley. Air quality will be good to moderate.

Cool, below normal temperatures will hold through the rest of the week for most of the Southern California region. Gusty northwest to north winds will persist in wind prone areas through Tuesday afternoon. More light rain is possible this coming weekend as well.

As Editor-in-Chief of our newsroom, I’m extremely proud of the work our top-notch journalists are doing here at LAist. We’re doing more hard-hitting watchdog journalism than ever before — powerful reporting on the economy, elections, climate and the homelessness crisis that is making a difference in your lives. At the same time, it’s never been more difficult to maintain a paywall-free, independent news source that informs, inspires, and engages everyone.

Simply put, we cannot do this essential work without your help. Federal funding for public media has been clawed back by Congress and that means LAist has lost $3.4 million in federal funding over the next two years. So we’re asking for your help. LAist has been there for you and we’re asking you to be here for us.

We rely on donations from readers like you to stay independent, which keeps our nonprofit newsroom strong and accountable to you.

No matter where you stand on the political spectrum, press freedom is at the core of keeping our nation free and fair. And as the landscape of free press changes, LAist will remain a voice you know and trust, but the amount of reader support we receive will help determine how strong of a newsroom we are going forward to cover the important news from our community.

Please take action today to support your trusted source for local news with a donation that makes sense for your budget.

Thank you for your generous support and believing in independent news.
