May Gray is sticking around 'til the bitter end. Skies will be cloudy in the morning again today in the Los Angeles basin, with highs in the upper 60s. It should clear up by afternoon.
Quick Facts
- Today’s weather: Cool, mid-60s
- Beaches: Low 60s
- Mountains: Sun, mid-50s
- Inland: Cool, high 60s
The beaches could see patchy drizzle this morning, with highs in the mid-60s and the possibility of wind up to 20 mph
Inland areas will not be much warmer, with the same gray skies all morning and highs in the upper 60s in the afternoon. The mountains will be cooler, with sun but temperatures in the mid-50s.

An interesting satellite loop this morning! Some of you along the coast may have seen clearing earlier, though the valleys/mountains remain in dense cloud cover. Additional clearing will be possible for the coast later today as an upper-low exits the region.#CAwx pic.twitter.com/lMCSwVPWcr
