Today's weather will be a few degrees warmer, but the National Weather Service forecasts temperatures to drop this week.

    • Today’s weather: Warm, sunny
    • Beaches: 70s
    • Mountains/deserts: 50s-60s/57-74

    Temperatures along the coasts will average out to 72 degrees, and up to 75 in downtown Los Angeles.

    The Santa Anas can be felt along the Malibu coast and Santa Monica mountains today.

    More inland areas, such as the valleys, Riverside and San Bernardino, will see temperatures in the low 70s. For inland Orange County, expect a high of 74.

    Taking a look ahead: Temperatures are expected to drop into the mid 60s for most of the southland and the National Weather Service forecasts a storm for the middle of the week.

    About those advisories

    The National Weather Service warns beachgoers to be careful of the high tides along the coasts. Surf is reaching up to 6 feet high.

    And there's a wind advisory due to the Santa Ana winds. Here are the areas affected (advisory will be lifted at 3 p.m. today):

    • Malibu Coast
    • Santa Monica Mountains
    • Santa Susana Mountains
    • Interstate 5 Corridor
    • Highway 14 Corridor
    • Western San Gabriel Mountains

    This day in history

    On this day in 1919, snow brought a white mantle to the hills and valleys of San Diego County.

    Things to do

    Looking to keep the holiday spirit alive? My colleague Julia Paskin wrote about ice skating pop up rinks happening across Los Angeles. So grab a buddy, a scarf and some extra padded pants to help break the fall.

    At LAist, we believe in journalism without censorship and the right of a free press to speak truth to those in power. Our hard-hitting watchdog reporting on local government, climate, and the ongoing housing and homelessness crisis is trustworthy, independent and freely accessible to everyone thanks to the support of readers like you.

    But the game has changed: Congress voted to eliminate funding for public media across the country. Here at LAist that means a loss of $1.7 million in our budget every year. We want to assure you that despite growing threats to free press and free speech, LAist will remain a voice you know and trust. Speaking frankly, the amount of reader support we receive will help determine how strong of a newsroom we are going forward to cover the important news in our community.

    We’re asking you to stand up for independent reporting that will not be silenced. With more individuals like you supporting this public service, we can continue to provide essential coverage for Southern Californians that you can’t find anywhere else. Become a monthly member today to help sustain this mission.

    Thank you for your generous support and belief in the value of independent news.
    Senior Vice President News, Editor in Chief
