L.A. braces for a wet weekend, folks. The City of Angels is expecting a continuous spatter of rain throughout the day with the temperature hovering at a cool 60 degrees. No respite for the dampened spirits as the National Weather Service reports a solid "100% chance of precipitation" and gusts that could reach up to 20 mph.

Don't throw your umbrellas out yet; the drizzle is set to linger into the night. Probability dictates a 70% chance of rain before bedtime, at 10pm, with a slight chill setting in as temps dip to around 49 degrees. Hopefully, those new precipitation amounts won't go beyond a tenth of an inch

Come Sunday morning, there’s a 30 percent possibility you’ll need that rainwear if you're out before 10 am. But don't despair; the sun plans on making an unexpected, albeit breezy, appearance with highs battling to reach 60 degrees. Those west southwestern winds aren't letting up, with potential gusts of 25 mph shaking the last drops off the palm fronds.

Following the trail of clouds, Sunday night will blanket L.A. in a calm mostly clear sky. Temperatures will cool down, hitting a nightly low near 45 degrees. The winds will switch from showy to shy, diminishing to softer breaths from the west-northwest. For those hopeful for the return of that famed California golden glow, Monday vows clear skies and a cozy high of 64 degrees

Looking ahead with optimism, the week promises more sun than showers after these wet days clear. Tuesday is setting up to be pleasantly sunny, climbing to highs near 66. However, keep your raincoats on standby as we approach midweek; the forecast hints at potential rain spells post-10 pm on Tuesday night and into Wednesday morning.

Los Angeles residents can expect the dance between the sun and clouds to continue. With precipitation chance waxing and waning, the following days offer a mix of partly sunny skies and slight chances of evening showers before giving way to what seems to be a sunny lead into next weekend. All eyes are on Friday, projected to be the warmest day of the week with temperatures aspiring to reach a welcoming high of 69.
