The deep marine layer and onshore flow that's behind our persistent May Gray, and now June Gloom, is still in place, meaning that the Los Angeles basin will continue to see morning clouds and fog with some clearing in the afternoon.
The Forecast
Temperatures will be slightly warmer this weekend, reaching the low to mid-70s.

Further inland, morning clouds will still persist, but temperatures will reach the high 70s to low 80s, with possible winds as high as 20 mph.
The same clouds will cover coastal areas on Friday and Saturday mornings, but Sunday is expected to be sunny throughout the day. It will still be chilly for a beach day, though, with highs staying in the mid- to upper 60s.
One area that's expected to be clear is the mountains. The weekend should be sunny in those regions, with a high on Friday of 60 and reaching 66 by Sunday.
This Day In History
In 1948, a thunderstorm caused street flooding in San Bernardino, as well as two lightning strikes.
Things To Do
It's a great day to catch a film:
- Flamin' Hot Community Screening: LA Plaza de Cultura y Artes will host a free outdoor screening of Eva Longoria’s Flamin' Hot biopic at LA Plaza de Cultura y Artes, telling the story of the Frito-Lay janitor who made Flamin' Hot Cheetos into a phenomenon. Longoria, who directed the film, will be on hand to introduce the film to members of the cast. She’s also a founding member of the museum’s board. The screening will also have a DJ, plus food and craft vendors — including Flamin' Hot Cheetos-inspired food. Plus, they’ll have interactive photo moments with classic cars, flower walls, and more.
Check out our full list of things to do this weekend.

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.
