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

    Quick Facts

    • Today’s weather: Warm, sunny
    • Beaches: 70s
    • Mountains/deserts: 50s-60s/57-74
    • Inland: 70s
    • Warnings and advisories: Beach Hazards, Wind Advisory

    The morning clouds will give way to some afternoon sunshine and Santa Ana winds are back for some areas across the region.

    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.
