Downtown Los Angeles started Saturday, June 6, 2026, in a blanket of patchy fog and muggy air, with low 60s to kick off the morning and a high near 77°F expected this afternoon. The marine layer is set to pull back inland by midday for most neighborhoods, while beaches and coastal low spots stay cooler and stubbornly gray. South-southwest breezes should stay light early before ramping up to around 5 to 10 mph later in the day, with overnight lows slipping into the upper 50s.
Forecast
Patchy fog will be most widespread before 11 a.m., then inland areas should clear to mostly cloudy or partly sunny skies by mid-afternoon, with highs near 77°F. On Sunday, the marine layer is expected to deepen to about 3,500 feet, which will keep beaches and coastal low spots cloudier as inland spots hold in the mid 70s. There is a moderate chance of advisory-level sundowner winds on Sunday, around 30 to 40 percent, with higher odds on Monday, around 40 to 50 percent. Small Craft Advisories and Gale Warnings remain posted for parts of the outer waters through early Sunday, according to NWS Los Angeles/Oxnard.
Boaters, Beachgoers, and Commuters
Mariners and anyone planning a coastal outing should hold off on small boat trips while advisories are active and be ready for steep, choppy seas. Drivers and cyclists may run into reduced visibility in the morning on ramps and near the coast, so headlights and a little extra travel time are smart moves. We recently broke down the broader June gloom pattern, and this update layers on today’s marine and wind advisories along with the elevated sundowner risk. For that broader context, revisit our June gloom coverage.
Watch For Sundowner Gusts
Late afternoon could bring a burst of offshore gusts in canyons and along west facing slopes. If sundowners show up, expect a short-lived push of warmer, drier air and stronger winds. Residents in canyon neighborhoods should tie down or move loose outdoor items and use extra caution with grilling or any open flames when winds kick up. We will keep an eye on the forecast and update if advisories expand or the wind probabilities shift.
Takeaways
Plan for cool, gray mornings and mildly warm afternoons, so a light jacket for the start of the day and an extra layer for tonight will come in handy. Beachgoers and boaters should check the latest marine forecast before heading out, and commuters should be ready for patchy fog to slow things down on coastal approaches. We will post updates if the National Weather Service upgrades any advisories or if the sundowner chances increase.
