June Gloom sticks around SoCal ahead of holiday weekend warmup
LOS ANGELES (KABC) -- Southern California will see mild temperatures as the June Gloom pattern sticks around, but a warmup is in the forecast ahead of the Fourth of July weekend.
Below-average temperatures with thick, June Gloom marine layer clouds are expected to continue for one more day before the warmup ramps up.
By Thursday and Friday, high pressure will slowly begin building across the region as an offshore flow returns, gradually bumping temperatures up heading into the holiday weekend.
Many areas will see highs slightly above average by July 4th.
Los Angeles and Orange counties on Wednesday will see partly sunny skies with a high of 73 degrees and a low of 57. Temperatures are expected to warm to the mid-to-upper 70s by Thursday and into the holiday weekend.
The valleys and Inland Empire can expect clouds in the morning, followed by afternoon sunshine on Wednesday, with a high of 77 degrees and a low of 54. Highs in the low-80s return on Thursday as temperatures continue to climb heading toward the holiday weekend.
Beach communities on Wednesday will see a cloudy June Gloom morning with a high of 71 degrees and a low of 58. Highs in the low-70s are on tap all week.
Mountain communities can expect sunny and breezy conditions on Wednesday, with a high of 73 degrees and a low of 38. Highs are expected to climb to the low-80s by the holiday weekend.
