With our free press under threat and federal funding for public media gone, your support matters more than ever. Help keep the LAist newsroom strong, become a monthly member or increase your support today.

It's just another muggy Monday before the cooldown comes.

Quick Facts

  • Today’s weather: Warm, partially cloudy
  • Beaches: 70s
  • Mountains: 80s/90s-106
  • Inland: 80s-90s
  • Warnings and advisories: none

It'll be a partly cloudy day, giving us some relief from the hot sun. Highs along the coast will be in the mid to upper 70s and with no beach advisories, it'll make for a nice beach day.

In downtown L.A., highs will be in the low 90s. In the valleys and farther inland, including the Riverside and San Bernardino area, highs will be in the upper 90s.

Over in Coachella Valley, it's going to be another scorcher with highs up to 106.

There's also a less than 20% chance of scattered, isolated showers across the L.A. basin and Orange County but the chances are greater near the mountains like the Santa Monicas, San Gabriels and Santa Ana.

This day in history

Today marks the 22nd anniversary of 9/11 when a series of terrorist attacks at the Twin Towers in New York killed nearly 3,000 people. Here are a few ceremonies happening across Southern California:

  • At 9 a.m. L.A. City Fire is holding a ceremony at its Frank Hotchkin Memorial Training Center, where volunteers will be refurbishing planter boxes and making disaster readiness kits.
  • Long Beach is hosting a tribute starting at 9:11 a.m. followed by a ceremonial wreath placement.
  • In Yorba Linda, the Nixon Library will host a celebration starting at 11 a.m. with bagpipes, a Presentation of the Colors by U.S. Marines and more.

Things to do

  • Ghost Devotional Pop-up: In conjunction with the Swedish theatrical rock band Ghost’s two-night stand at the Kia Forum, the Grammy museum hosts the Ghost Devotional Pop-up for the band’s fans. As the faithful celebrate the return of Papa Emeritus IV (the band’s fourth frontman) and his bandmates, they’re invited to enter a hand-crafted confessional to confess their sins and bare their souls about why they think Ghost are the best rock band ever (plus get a souvenir photo to mark the occasion).

Check out our full list of things to do this week.

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
