The National Weather Service (NWS) has predicted gloomier days, with possible rain straight through the end of the weekend.
This past Tuesday’s highs
were around 88 degrees Fahrenheit, lows near 62, with winds from the southwest at five to 10 miles per hour becoming northeast after midnight.
Northeast winds yesterday, April 5, reached low-end advisory levels across the windier sections of Los Angeles County. Temperatures were well above normal, with yesterday being the warmest day – a high near 90, and low around 59.
Despite the recent sunshine, today, Thursday, April 7, the weather is expected to take a noticeable and dramatic turn to cooler and more unsettled conditions.

“As the upper low approaches from the southwest, mostly cloudy conditions are anticipated along with the increasing chances of showers,” an NWS Forecast Discussion predicts. “Early estimates of rainfall totals through Thursday evening are one inch or less, with the highest totals likely over the San Gabriel Mountains.”
Today’s rain chance is 20 percent and we should expect temperatures cooling down from 10 to 20 degrees – a high near 73 and low around 56.
