Currently in Los Angeles — June 5, 2024: Morning clouds linger

Plus, new ways to support our independent climate journalism

The weather, currently.

Morning clouds linger

It’s not just low clouds but high clouds which streamed over our area on Tuesday, with more sun as the day went on. This is officially the cloudiest two-year period I’ve ever seen since I moved to Los Angeles for college.

Today, we’ll mostly just be dealing with the normal potential for the June Gloom pattern of morning low clouds, though this should clear pretty quickly inland for a nice sunny day thanks to that building ridge. Expect 80s inland with an outside chance of 90 for the warmest valley locations.

Those on the westside might be asking "where’s that warm up?" Santa Monica will have temps in the low 70s. 30 miles due north in Santa Clarita, will be in the low 90s. Ah, California microclimates.
