Living in Southern California means it's cool one week, then sweltering hot the next. And since last week was cool...can you guess where this is going?

This week we're going to see warmer temperatures as a short warm up kicks in today through Wednesday. Another monsoonal weather pattern is also here, bringing with it a small chance of afternoon thunderstorms and showers.

Temperatures are rising everywhere from the coast to the deserts. Today the L.A. County coast will see highs from 76 to 86 degrees, and up to 89 degrees for the Orange County coast. Downtown L.A and surrounding areas will see highs up to 91 degrees.

The valley communities will see temperatures mostly in the mid 90s, up to 100 degrees for the western San Fernando Valley and the warmest parts of the Inland Empire.

In Coachella Valley, temperatures will rise up to 104 degrees.

As Editor-in-Chief of our newsroom, I’m extremely proud of the work our top-notch journalists are doing here at LAist. We’re doing more hard-hitting watchdog journalism than ever before — powerful reporting on the economy, elections, climate and the homelessness crisis that is making a difference in your lives. At the same time, it’s never been more difficult to maintain a paywall-free, independent news source that informs, inspires, and engages everyone.

Simply put, we cannot do this essential work without your help. Federal funding for public media has been clawed back by Congress and that means LAist has lost $3.4 million in federal funding over the next two years. So we’re asking for your help. LAist has been there for you and we’re asking you to be here for us.

We rely on donations from readers like you to stay independent, which keeps our nonprofit newsroom strong and accountable to you.

No matter where you stand on the political spectrum, press freedom is at the core of keeping our nation free and fair. And as the landscape of free press changes, LAist will remain a voice you know and trust, but the amount of reader support we receive will help determine how strong of a newsroom we are going forward to cover the important news from our community.

Please take action today to support your trusted source for local news with a donation that makes sense for your budget.

Thank you for your generous support and believing in independent news.
