SoCal to see cooler temperatures for Memorial Day, chances of drizzle later in the week

LOS ANGELES (KABC) -- Southern California is expected to see cooler temperatures ahead of Memorial Day and chances of drizzle later in the week.

Temperatures have cooled thanks to an onshore flow, which also brings marine layer clouds. The cooling trend continues on Memorial Day, when more May Gray conditions return.

The marine layer is expected to deepen heading into the workweek, with very thick cloud cover on tap.

With those May Gray conditions comes a chance for drizzle in some areas on Tuesday morning.

Los Angeles and Orange counties on Sunday will see morning clouds followed by afternoon sunshine, with a high of 73 degrees and a low of 55. Temperatures will continue to drop heading into the workweek with thick marine layer clouds.

The valleys and Inland Empire on Sunday can expect partly sunny skies with a high of 82 degrees and a low of 49. Temperatures will cool to the low-70s by Tuesday and Wednesday.

Beaches on Sunday will see cloudy skies in the morning and sunshine later in the day, with a high of 71 degrees and a low of 55. Expect similar conditions for the next several days.

Mountain communities on Sunday can expect sunny and mild conditions, with a high of 73 degrees and a low of 38.

Desert areas on Sunday will see a high of 87 degrees and a low of 52. Palm Springs is expected to reach 96 degrees.
