Quick Facts
-
- Today’s weather: Patchy drizzle, overcast
- Beaches: 65 - 70 degrees
- Mountains: 74 - 81 degrees
- Inland: 77 - 84 degrees
- Warnings and advisories: Beach hazards
It may look extra dreary today thanks to a late season storm moving into Southern California from the northwest. The National Weather Service says there's a small chance of thunderstorms, mainly west of the mountains and in the desert in the afternoon into the evening. Most areas will likely see patchy drizzle in the morning.
Expect another cool day with temperatures around 65 to 70 degrees at L.A. County beaches. The valley communities could range between 71 and 81 degrees.
Support for LAist comes from
Orange County will see highs in the 70s, and the beaches will be on the chilly side with temperatures in the mid-60s. Inland Empire temperatures could reach the mid-80s.
The Coachella Valley can expect highs in the upper 90s.
Strong surf
Strong rip currents and high surf will hit our beaches — that includes L.A., Orange, Ventura county beaches and the Malibu coast. High surf could reach up to 6 feet tall for southwest facing beaches. These conditions will last until the afternoon.
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.
