Weather report 19 October 2026, 07:00

Los Angeles is on course for its fifth consecutive day of 30 °C or more. After 16 °C early this morning, the temperature climbs to 30 °C by early afternoon before a south-westerly breeze takes the edge off and brings the city down to 20 °C by 19:00.

Rain plays no part today: the precipitation data is complete, and the first wet spell is not due until Tuesday evening.

The night stays clear and cools to 16 °C, a little fresher than last night's 18 °C. Winds stay light from the north-east.

Tuesday ends the run: with more cloud, the high reaches only 24 °C, and gusts of up to 23 km/h make themselves felt in the afternoon. Between 21:00 and 22:00 a little drizzle is possible, though not much will accumulate.

Wednesday turns showery at 25 °C, Thursday brings around 16 mm of rain at 21 °C and the models also flag a thunderstorm risk. The weekend dries out again, with 30 °C or more back from Sunday, though that far ahead it remains an uncertain trend.

The past days' weather data show a run that began on 15 October: 34.0 °C on Thursday, 35.9 °C on Friday, then 32.5 and 31.3 °C. Four completed hot days lie behind the city, and today would add a fifth.

On Tuesday the maximum is expected to drop below 30 °C, which ends the sequence. Only towards the weekend does the next warm spell come into view.

A light north-easterly of around 8 km/h starts the day. From early afternoon it swings south-west and reaches 15 km/h with gusts to 18 km/h; Tuesday afternoon's gusts of up to 23 km/h will be more noticeable on open stretches.
