The National Weather Service has painted a sunny portrait for the City of Angels, with an extended forecast that Los Angeles residents can look forward to. Today, expect nothing but clear skies and high temperatures, reaching nearly 93 degrees. A calm breeze will eventually settle from the west-southwest around 5 mph, offering a slight respite from the heat.
As the sun dips below the horizon tonight, the skies will largely remain clear, with a low hovering around 66 degrees. The calm wind continues, switching up to come from the south at approximately the same gentle pace. Venturing into Thursday, the conditions hold steady with sunny skies and the mercury once again climbing to the 93-degree mark. However, during the afternoon, a light flow of air from the west-southwest is expected to pick up slightly, introducing a 5 to 10 mph draft through the streets.
Los Angeles' nighttime climate for Thursday essentially mirrors that of the previous evening, with mostly clear conditions and a southwest wind that will slow to a light whisper by nightfall. Residents gearing up for Friday can anticipate the warmth to persist with another sunny day, although the high is predicted to drop slightly to a more comfortable 87 degrees. The light winds will maintain their presence, reminding Angelenos of the ocean's proximity, as it becomes southwest at 5 to 10 mph in the later part of the day.
The weekend brings subtle changes to the forecast. Friday night will be introduced by patchy fog rolling in after 11 p.m., diffusing into a mostly cloudy night with lows around 63 degrees. Saturday will shake off the fog before midday to reveal mostly sunny skies and a cooler high near 82. According to the National Weather Service, the dance of fog and clarity continues through the weekend, setting the rhythm for nights and mornings until Tuesday, which will find a daytime high of roughly 82 degrees.
