Los Angeles locals can break out the sunglasses today with an expected high of 67 degrees and a gentle northeast breeze transforming to a softer southern wind later in the day.
Coming into tonight, the city's temperatures will dip to a low of around 43 degrees, with a calming west wind shifting east northeast, as evening falls. Saturday will follow Friday's lead with more sun and a slightly cooler high of around 65 degrees. But the night brings a 20 percent chance of showers after the late hours of 10:00 p.m., which could leave residents reaching for their umbrellas amidst the mostly cloudy backdrop.
In contrast, the forecast for Sunday predicts a mostly sunny but brisk day, with highs near 59 degrees and north-northwest gusts reaching up to 35 mph, suggesting a sharp, dry turn to end the weekend.
