Published On:


SOUTHERN CALIFORNIA

— Residents across Los Angeles and surrounding regions are enjoying a temporary break from the summer heat as a marine layer brings

cooler-than-normal temperatures

to much of Southern California this week.


Mild Conditions Midweek for Coastal and Inland Areas

ABC7 Los Angeles weather update

,

Los Angeles and Orange counties

are experiencing a mix of

morning clouds and afternoon sunshine

, with Wednesday highs reaching around

78°F

and lows near

60°F

. The

marine layer

has returned, offering a welcome cooldown before a gradual warm-up expected later in the week.

In the

valleys and Inland Empire

, daytime highs are around

84°F

with overnight lows dipping to

58°F

. Temperatures in these regions are expected to climb back into the low

90s by the weekend

, as high pressure builds once again over the region.

beach communities

are enjoying

72°F highs
