One year ago, Congress defunded public media. Now that we're 100% community funded, please become a sustaining member or increase your existing membership today.

You can expect relatively mild temperatures today, with more airflow from the ocean.

Quick Facts

  • Today’s weather: Warm, sunny
  • Beaches: 70s
  • Mountains/deserts: 70s/90s
  • Inland: 80s
  • Warnings and advisories: High Surf Advisory

Highs will range from the 70s at the beaches to around 80 in the L.A. Basin, inland Orange County and coastal valleys. The valleys — from Antelope to San Gabriel — and the Riverside area, will be in the 80s. The Coachella Valley will up into the upper 90s.

The rest of the week will be warming up, with temperatures peaking on Sunday 5 to 10 degrees above average.

About those advisories

If you're planning a beach day today, you may want to keep away from the ocean, since high surf is pounding the coastline for another day.
