Los Angeles residents can expect mostly sunny skies today with temperatures hitting a high near 63 degrees. The North wind is set to shift to the southwest this morning, offering a mild breeze between 5 to 10 mph. As the day progresses, the gentle winds are predicted to take an easterly turn after the sun sets, bringing the temperature down to a cool 48 degrees tonight, according to the National Weather Service.

Looking ahead to Tuesday, the forecast suggests the sunshine will persist with highs inching up to near 64 degrees. However, the tranquility of the morning may be quickly disrupted as winds shift from the South to a more vigorous west-southwest by the afternoon, with potential wind gusts that could indeed reach up to 20 mph by Tuesday night.

Midweek predictions include a notable shift as Wednesday brings a 40 percent chance of showers. Cloud coverage will increase, with the day's high hovering around 63 degrees. Rainfall, if it arrives, isn't expected to be severe, with new precipitation likely measuring between a tenth and a quarter of an inch.

Those odds for rain carry through Wednesday night, though they're set to decrease by Thursday morning. With only a 20 percent chance of showers before the morning's end, conditions are slated to clear up, resulting in a mostly sunny day and highs potentially climbing to 66 degrees. This pleasant pattern is expected to continue, with Friday and Saturday's forecasts promising sunny days with the mercury rising to a comfortable 70 degrees.

The weekend will largely maintain this mild trend, apart from some cloudiness projected for Saturday night. Sunday's outlook remains optimistic, with mostly sunny skies and a high near 68 anticipated.
