Above-average temps return this week. Here's when the warm-up arrives

Southern California will see another warm-up this week, bringing the return of above-average temperatures.

LOS ANGELES (KABC) -- Southern California will see another warm-up this week, bringing the return of above-average temperatures.

A combination of high pressure and offshore flow moving into the region is bringing gradually warmer temperatures.

By Tuesday, a larger area of high pressure will move into SoCal, causing temperatures to jump about 5 to 10 degrees by mid-week. High temperatures are expected to peak on Thursday.

The heat sticks around for a few days before a slight cooldown begins heading into the weekend.

Los Angeles and Orange counties on Monday will see clouds in the morning followed by afternoon sunshine, with a high of 88 degrees and a low of 68. Temperatures will climb back to the low-90s by Tuesday and through the rest of the work week.

The valleys and Inland Empire can expect mostly sunny skies on Monday, with a high of 95 degrees and a low of 69. Temperatures will return to the triple digits by Thursday.

Beach communities will see a mix of morning fog and afternoon sunshine on Monday, with a high of 77 degrees and a low of 68.

Mountain communities on Monday will see mostly sunny skies with a high of 81 degrees and a low of 53. Highs will heat up to the mid-80s by mid-week.

Desert areas on Monday can expect a high of 100 degrees and a low of 66. Palm Springs is expected to reach 109 degrees.
