LOS ANGELES (CNS) – The warm weather that bathed the Southland over the past week gave way to a cooling trend that started Wednesday and is expected to stretch through at least Friday, with light rain or drizzle possible over the next few days.
According to the National Weather Service, the “significant cooling trend” is the result of onshore flow that will increase the chance of light rain as early as Wednesday afternoon along the Central Coast, with a slight chance of some precipitation Wednesday evening in Los Angeles County.
There will be a 30% to 50% chance of rain on Thursday, with some lingering showers possible through Friday, forecasters said.
“Amounts will be mostly light with generally 0.25 inch or less of rainfall expected, but isolated thunderstorms with heavier rainfall cannot be ruled out from tonight through Friday,” according to the NWS. “There is a 10% chance that heavier showers could develop with rainfall rates topping out between 0.25 and 0.50 inch per hour.”
High temperatures were expected to top out in the 60s for much of the area for the next few days, pushing back to around 70 by the weekend.
