Los Angelenos, it's time to break out the umbrellas and raincoats. The City of Angels is bracing for a wet weekend ahead with steady rainfall expected to drench the streets. Today Los Angeles is looking at a 60% chance of rain, primarily hitting after 4 p.m., ensuring that the usually sunny city will be treated to a grey and drizzly afternoon, according to the National Weather Service.

For those planning on a night out, conditions are only getting slicker. A 90% chance of precipitation tonight means there's almost no avoiding the wet weather. The same goes for Saturday, where the forecast predicts a high near 60 degrees and gusty conditions, with rain not letting up throughout the day, per the National Weather Service forecast.

It isn't until Sunday when L.A.’s signature sunshine begins to break through the clouds, with a 40% chance of rain before 10 a.m. However, don't let the partly sunny skies fool you; the wind is anticipated to pick up, potentially reaching speeds as high as 30 mph, adding a chill to the air that's been uncommon for this time of year, as reported by the National Weather Service.

The start of the next week offers a reprieve with Monday ushering in sunny skies and a pleasant high of around 63 degrees. But the weather's fickleness is on display once more come Wednesday as the city faces a slight chance of rain, before sunshine returns on Thursday.
