LOS ANGELES (KTLA) – In less than a week, Southern California’s weather has gone from unseasonably dry and warm – to wet and now bitterly cold.
The National Weather Service says the same low pressure system that brought rain to the region last weekend is “still spinning” and producing overnight low temperatures in the 30s and 40s.
Meteorologists warn of a hypothermia risk to people and animals and potential damage to sensitive plants and crops.
Through Friday morning, the forecast calls for overnight lows around 42 degrees in downtown Los Angeles and the San Gabriel Valley, 35 degrees in the San Fernando Valley, 27 degrees in Lancaster, 45 degrees in the Beach Cities and Orange County, and low 40s in coastal Ventura County.
Daytime highs will be in the 50s and low 60s.
Temperatures begin to warm on Friday as a ridge of high pressure moves into California. “Temperatures will still be below normal, but generally 2-4 degrees warmer than Thursday,” the Weather Service said.
