    Good morning and happy Thursday. We're in store for some sweater weather as a couple of storm systems move towards Southern California, according to the National Weather Service.

    That means today will be a few degrees below normal with a slight chance of scattered light rain in the afternoon and early evening.

    Keep an eye out also for patchy fog with a chance of light drizzle until the afternoon. There's another chance of light rain late Saturday.

    Temperatures will be range in the 60s for most of SoCal. Moving more inland, the valleys and high desert communities will reach the mid 60s.

    Tonight's lows will drop to the mid 40s, and down to the mid 30s for the high desert.

    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.
