Los Angeles weather today brings patchy fog through late morning, then mostly sunny skies with a high near 76°F—ideal spring weather for getting outside.
Expect light east winds around 5 to 10 mph with gusts up to 20 mph, so nothing dramatic on the wind front. The National Weather Service notes that weak offshore flow this morning will create some light canyon winds, but they’ll stay well below advisory levels. By mid-morning around 11 AM PT, that fog should clear and you’ll have clear blue skies—perfect timing if you’re heading to Griffith Park for a hike or catching some rays at Santa Monica or Manhattan Beach.
If you’re attending tonight’s Los Angeles Dodgers vs. Chicago Cubs game at UNIQLO Field at Dodger Stadium (Thursday, April 24), you’re in for a treat weather-wise. Game-time conditions will be pleasant—mostly sunny, mid-60s, with light winds. Bring a light layer for after sunset, but no rain concerns whatsoever. Same goes for the First Round Game 3: Oilers at Ducks at Honda Center in Anaheim on Friday—another beautiful evening for hockey.
For allergy sufferers, spring pollen is ramping up with this warming trend. Consider keeping an allergy relief nasal spray and pollen count face mask handy, especially if you’re spending hours outdoors in the Valley or foothills where pollen counts tend to spike. If you or your kids struggle with seasonal allergies, Zyrtec 24 hour allergy 90 count or kids allergy chewables Zyrtec can help you enjoy the day without sniffles.
Friday will be slightly cooler—mostly sunny with a high near 75°F—as stronger onshore flow develops. Coastal areas and valleys will see 2 to 4 degrees knocked off compared to today, but it’s still perfect patio weather.
Saturday is when things change. A 555-dam upper low swinging through Kern County will bring occasional light rain from late morning through evening. Expect periods of dry conditions mixed in, with rainfall under a quarter inch. Not a washout, but plan indoor activities if you prefer to stay dry.
For tonight’s dinner, a light pasta with fresh vegetables or a quick stir-fry pairs perfectly with this mild spring weather. You can order groceries on Amazon Fresh and have everything delivered, including fresh produce and pantry staples to whip up a quick meal.
Next week brings warming—Sunday and Monday look pleasant—before another weak system potentially brings light rain around Tuesday. Stock up on any outdoor tasks this week while conditions hold!
