As the residents of Los Angeles reach for their raincoats and umbrellas today, the National Weather Service confirms that rain is set to drench the city. A steady downpour is expected with highs cresting at a chilly 53 degrees, as easterly winds shift from the north. "Chance of precipitation is 100%," with new rainfall tallied between a quarter and a half-inch, according to the National Weather Service.

Relief from the rain seems to peek its head tonight, albeit briefly, with a "20 percent chance of showers before 11pm," and temperatures dipping into the mid-40s, as detailed by the National Weather Service. Saturday heralds the return of the sun, boasting a more comfortable high of around 65 degrees awash with light northwest winds. As nighttime falls with a "mostly clear" promise, Angelenos can anticipate another brisk evening as thermometers hover in the mid-40s.

By Sunday, the city will bask in "mostly sunny" skies, and thermometers are forecasted to climb, reaching a more agreeable high near 69 degrees, while a "calm wind becoming south southwest around 5 mph in the afternoon," as reported by NWS. A slender chance of rain threads its way into Monday's narrative with "a 20 percent chance of rain after 11am," while the sun plays hide and seek amidst the partly sunny conditions and a high holding steady near 65 degrees. As night swaddles the city, showers may pay another brief visit before subsiding.

With Tuesday's invitation, the sun seems to commit wholeheartedly to Los Angeles' expanse. Clear skies carry through to Wednesday as temperatures ascend to a more palatable high of 72 degrees. Evening brings a dash of clouds, setting the stage for a "mostly sunny" Thursday "with a high near 70," as per the NWS.
