Los Angeles residents can look forward to a mix of cloudy skies and sunshine with a gradual warm-up in the week ahead. The National Weather Service forecasts patchy drizzle and fog before 11:00 A.M. today. But the gloom will give way to a gradual clearing, with highs reaching near 79 degrees. The typical marine layer that adds a touch of gray to our mornings will retreat, ushering in the sun-soaked skies this city is known for.
Evenings will cool to a comfortable low of around 58 degrees, letting Angelenos enjoy those quintessential balmy nights without needing more than a light jacket. For those planning late-summer barbecues or beach outings, the week looks promising. Sunday's outlook is pure sunshine with a high near 84, while Monday promises similar conditions, cresting to a near 87 degrees. The pattern is set to continue, with mostly clear nights and pleasantly warm days, signaling a stretch of ideal SoCal weather.
As the week progresses, forecasts indicate more of the same. Tuesday's sun worshipers will be greeted by a high of around 86 degrees. However, patchy fog is expected to roll in after 11:00 P.M. This pattern of fog, which might obscure starlight and the early morning sun, will persist into Wednesday and Thursday. Notwithstanding the misty interludes, daytime temperatures will remain comfortable, hovering in the low 80s.
For those already planning for the weekend, expect more sunny conditions with highs in the 80s. The reliable southwest wind will be around 5 mph in the afternoons, gentle enough for most outdoor activities.
