It's another typically sunny day in Los Angeles, with the mercury set to hit a pleasant 80 degrees. The warm temperatures are accompanied by an east-northeast wind shifting to the southwest in the afternoon, giving Angelenos the perfect excuse to ditch the office early and soak up some vitamin D, according to the National Weather Service.
The good news doesn't just stop there, as tonight is forecasted to be mostly clear, dropping to a comfortable 54 degrees. As we look to carry on into Thursday, the city will again be bathed in sunlight with highs expected near 80 degrees, and winds could swiftly gust as high as 15 mph, disrupting any paper that's too slow to be claimed by a paperweight.
The forecast for Friday, however, begins to dramatically shift as patchy fog is expected before 11 a.m., giving the city a dreamy, almost cinematic landscape. But the spotlight quickly fades to mostly cloudy skies and a high of about 70 degrees, signaling a possible end to our uninterrupted streak of sunshine, as noted by the National Weather Service.
For those planning their weekend outings, you might want to pack an umbrella. Friday night has a looming 30 percent chance of showers after 11 p.m., with an increased chance of rain at 50 percent by Saturday and continuing into the night, as per the National Weather Service. Although Sunday warms up slightly to 65 degrees, the threat of showers persists, potentially dampening any outdoor brunch plans.
Looking onward to Monday, Los Angeles residents can expect to experience patchy morning fog before it clears to again reveal mostly sunny skies and a high near 68. As for Tuesday, the city is anticipated to dry out with sunshine and temperatures creeping back up to a comfortable high near 71 degrees, a brief respite amidst what appears to be an incoming wave of April showers.
