If Los Angeles peaks at 61 degrees on Thursday, that would break an eight-day streak of sub-60 temperatures that marks the city’s longest such cold spell since 2005.
Sunny skies and slightly warmer temperatures are returning to parts of Southern California, but a cold weather advisory will remain in effect for some inland and mountain areas at least until Monday, according to forecasters.
Responding to severe winter storms that have pounded the state, Gov. Gavin Newsom on Wednesday declared a state of emergency to support disaster response and relief in Los Angeles, San Bernardino, San Luis Obispo, Santa Barbara and several other counties across Northern California. “We’ve had these cold weather systems come down from the north and reinforce cold air,” Boldt said. “The one that came in last week brought in very low snow levels. We also have quite a bit of precipitation, particularly last Friday and Saturday with that front and we had another system move in yesterday.”
Nighttime lows in the 40s are expected to continue through Sunday. Los Angeles on Thursday could tie the record for the coldest day this year. Downtown Los Angeles dipped to 40 degrees on Feb. 16 and Feb. 26.
