Alright, LA—it’s time to say goodbye to those gloomy, foggy mornings and hello to warm, sunny skies! If you’ve been waking up to that stubborn marine layer, don’t worry—it’s on its way out, and we’re in for a picture-perfect weekend.
Temperatures are climbing into the upper 70s (and even low 80s in some areas!), and with plenty of sunshine and light ocean breezes, it’s shaping up to be the kind of weather we brag about to our out-of-state friends.
What’s Causing the Warm-Up?
Over the past few days, LA has been dealing with foggy mornings and cooler afternoons, thanks to a persistent marine layer keeping things gray and damp. But now, a high-pressure system is moving in, pushing out the fog and bringing back those clear, warm, SoCal vibes.
Mornings will still start off a little crisp, but by noon, you’ll be looking for a shady spot.
The coast will be slightly cooler, but inland areas could push into the low 80s.

Is Spring Here Already?
