After a wet winter and a moody start to spring, Los Angeles is going to feel like Los Angeles again this weekend.
— at least 142 years — the mercury did not reach 70 degrees in downtown Los Angeles for the entire month of February.
But in a wild temperature swing, downtown L.A. recorded a high of 85 degrees two weekends ago, on March 17. Winds blowing in from the north are expected to raise temperatures in the Santa Ynez Mountains in Santa Barbara County. A wind advisory covering Thursday night into Friday morning was issued for the canyons and passes in that area. It’s possible new advisories will be issued over the weekend, according to the weather service.
The high-pressure ridge behind the warmth will begin to break down next week, the weather service said, with inland highs reaching only the mid-60s to lower 70s on Tuesday.
