The city of Los Angeles is gearing up for a streak of sunny days with a slight chance of fog later into the week, according to a recent forecast from the National Weather Service. The detailed forecast predicts a sunny today with a comfortable high of 77 degrees. Light winds are expected to pick up from the southwest throughout the afternoon, reaching speeds of 5 to 10 mph.
As the sun sets, Angelenos can expect the skies to remain mostly clear, with temperatures dipping to a low of around 56 degrees. The west-southwest wind will slow to a gentle breeze before it becomes calm by the evening. However, looking forward into the week, Monday promises to increase the heat, as the city sees a high near 87 degrees under sunny skies with a subtle shift in wind direction to the southwest.
Monday night is projected to stay consistent, with sky conditions mostly clear and the low temperature hovering around 58 degrees. A southwest wind will persist at a mild 5 mph before yielding to calm as night blankets the city. On Tuesday, Los Angeles will have mostly sunshine, albeit with the high dropping slightly to 81 degrees. The forecast notes that winds will remain calm until the afternoon when a familiar southwest breeze will make a modest appearance.
In the latter half of the week, Tuesday night introduces a change with patchy fog expected after 11 p.m., while the rest of the evening remains mostly cloudy and settles into a low of 57 degrees. Wednesday's morning fog is set to clear up before 11 a.m., making way for a mostly sunny day with the temperature peaking near 73 degrees. The pattern of patchy nighttime fog is anticipated to repeat itself, enveloping the city after 11:00 p.m. and giving way to a mostly cloudy night with a low of around 55 degrees.
The seemingly stable weather continues into Thursday as early fog is predicted to dissipate by late morning, following which partly sunny skies will dominate and lead to a high near 72 degrees. Thursday's nighttime sky will see partly cloudy conditions, taking the lows to a slightly cooler 51 degrees. Los Angeles can expect to end the week with a mostly sunny Friday, featuring a high of about 71 degrees, but as night draws in, patchy fog will again become a theme, ushering in a mostly cloudy evening with lows near 50 degrees.
By next Saturday, residents should anticipate patchy fog once more, followed by partly sunny skies with highs falling around 72 degrees. For further details on Los Angeles' upcoming weather conditions, interested parties can visit the National Weather Service website at NWS Los Angeles Forecast.
