Los Angeles residents may need umbrellas today as the National Weather Service predicts a 20 percent chance of showers after 11:00 a.m. Despite the potential for rain, the city is forecast to enjoy partly sunny skies with temperatures peaking near 64 degrees. Winds are expected to remain tame, wafting from the southwest at 5 to 10 mph, though there might be occasional gusts reaching up to 15 mph.
As the sun sets, the clouds will part ways, giving rise to partly cloudy night skies and a low of around 50. The southwest breeze, persisting at 5 to 10 mph, is slated to shift eastward after midnight. Meanwhile, Monday's outlook seems bright, promising pure sunshine and highs nudging towards 69 degrees, with the east wind again turning southwest in the afternoon.
Heading into Tuesday, the forecast indicates that residents can anticipate more sun-kissed skies with a high of about 73 degrees. The light winds in the morning will pick up slightly to 5 to 10 mph by the afternoon. While Tuesday night will usher in some cloud cover with lows hovering around 56, Wednesday maintains the trend of mostly sunny conditions with the mercury climbing near 74.
For those planning late evenings out, Wednesday night might offer a touch of mystery with patchy fog rolling in after 11:00 p.m., and the rest of the night mostly cloudy with a low around 55. The fog is expected to linger in the early mornings of Thursday and Friday, before ceding to partly sunny days with highs in the low 70s.
