Downtown Los Angeles is waking up near 71 degrees Sunday morning, with a low around 68 before sunny skies take over. Temperatures will climb to about 89 degrees this afternoon, giving the city a more manageable follow-up to its recent run of hotter days.
South winds around 5 to 10 mph will pick up through the afternoon, shifting slightly southwest as temperatures peak. The latest outlook is a clear step down from Saturday’s hotter setup detailed in Hoodline’s earlier heat report, while the National Weather Service calls for the cooling trend to continue into Monday.
A Cooler Monday Leads Into A Humid Tuesday
Monday should be sunny and cooler, with a high near 84 and an overnight low around 64. Tuesday stays near 83 degrees, but rising humidity will bring the week’s main weather wrinkle: a 10% rain chance in Downtown Los Angeles and a broader 15% to 20% chance of showers or thunderstorms across parts of Los Angeles and Ventura counties during the afternoon and evening.
The storm chance remains low, but it could produce a brief shower or rumble of thunder in some areas. Most Downtown plans should stay dry, though anyone spending Tuesday afternoon outdoors may want a quick forecast check before heading out.
Coastal Clouds Could Return
Marine-layer clouds are expected to rebuild Sunday into early next week as onshore winds increase, especially along the Los Angeles coast. Downtown’s point forecast remains sunny, but coastal commuters could see more morning cloud cover before skies brighten.
Mostly Sunny Weather Returns Wednesday
Wednesday brings a high near 84, followed by 86 Thursday, 88 Friday and 89 Saturday. Overnight lows remain comfortable in the mid-60s, with partly cloudy conditions possible Wednesday and Thursday nights and only minimal rain chances late in the week.
For Sunday, the best outdoor window is the morning or early evening, when temperatures are less demanding. Afternoon sunshine and southwesterly breezes will still make water and shade useful accessories, even if the forecast is no longer bringing the serious heat.
