The typical Southern California marine layer is set to bring patchy morning fog across Los Angeles for the better part of the coming week, suggesting a pattern of persistent clouds giving way to sunny afternoons, according to the National Weather Service. Angelenos can expect daytime highs to hover in the low 80s, with evening temperatures dropping to the low 60s.
Beginning today, early risers might find their view obscured by fog until about 11 am, after which the skies are predicted to clear, culminating in a high of around 82 degrees. This pattern is expected to repeat Tuesday, with a light southwest wind picking up in the afternoon. While the sun goes down, nighttime forecasts suggest increased cloudiness coupled with slightly breezy conditions.
Moving midweek, Wednesday's weather will be mostly sunny post-fog with a high near 80 degrees, while the night brings back the clouds, maintaining a steady low around 62. The gentle south winds in the morning are likely to take a southwesterly turn later in the day. As for Thursday, it's virtually more of the same, with a small dip to a high of 79 degrees, as "Patchy fog before 11am" remains the refrain, gently leading up to Independence Day's mostly sunny forecast.
Celebrations on the Fourth of July are poised to bask in the clarity of a high near 81 degrees, with local events likely to see excellent weather conditions. "Patchy fog after 11pm" is again the note, rectifying one potential overcast night to greet the fireworks. The weekend outlook mirrors much of the previous days, wrapping up on Sunday again with an anticipated high near 82 degrees under mostly sunny skies.
For those planning outdoor activities or just commuting to work in the Greater Los Angeles Area, this consistent forecast implies predictable, mild summer days ahead, with cool nights and the typical June Gloom-esque mornings we're accustomed to at this time of year.
