Los Angeles natives can expect to soak up the sun well into the week, but better bust out those umbrellas because showers are knocking on the door as we head into the weekend. The National Weather Service's latest forecast spells out plenty of sunshine with highs comfortably sitting in the mid-70 degrees to upper-70 degrees for the early part of the week. The temperatures are sticking to a toasty 78 degrees today, with light breezes making a shift from the northeast to southwest come afternoon.
When night falls over the City of Angels tonight, the sky will keep its clarity, dipping to a cooler 50 degrees. The extended forecast, as published on January 29th, anticipates a gradual slide in temperatures moving to a high near 74 degrees by Tuesday. The east wind will, too, play its part before deciding to swap directions come the afternoon.
Wednesday brings a partial veil of clouds over the radiant Californian sun, pegging the high at near about 70 degrees, the light wind blowing south in the afternoon. The National Weather Service cues in a 30 percent chance of rain after 10:00 p.m. on Wednesday night. The temperature will drop around 54 degrees.
The storyline alters significantly on Thursday—rain is largely expected with the likelihood of precipitation rocketing to 90 percent. For those counting on the dry, embrace the liquid sunshine as the high struggles to hit 60 degrees. Thursday night should anticipate showers, hosting a cooler 47 degrees overnight.
Friday's looking to be a breather with only a slim chance of showers amidst mostly sunny skies, but the high isn't climbing any higher than 61 degrees—it's sweater weather indeed. Once the city bids adieu to the daylight, temperatures will plummet to a bracing 42 degrees.
The forecast pushes a strong sunny rebound for Saturday. Nighttime brings back a slight showering prospect, cooling down to a low of around 43 degrees. Sunday continues on this roller coaster with rain chances tagged onto partly sunny conditions, peering at a high near 59 degrees.
