Los Angeles drivers face dangerous conditions Sunday as an Extreme Heat Warning continues through 9 p.m., with downtown temperatures topping 91 degrees. Officials urge residents to stay hydrated, limit outdoor activity, and avoid leaving children or pets in vehicles. Power grids remain under pressure, and cooling centers across Los Angeles County remain open until late evening.
According to the National Weather Service in Oxnard, heat risks will ease overnight as temperatures dip into the upper 60s. By Monday morning, patchy fog is expected along coastal corridors, including stretches of I-10, I-405, and US-101, reducing visibility during the morning commute. Sunshine will return by midday with highs in the upper 80s, far milder than Sunday’s sweltering peak.
Tuesday brings another round of patchy morning fog before skies clear. Highs will stay near 85 degrees, with light southwest breezes. Residents in areas like Santa Monica, Beverly Hills, and downtown Los Angeles can expect calmer, more comfortable afternoons.
Utility providers advise residents to continue conserving energy through Monday, especially during peak evening hours. Drivers should use caution on fog-prone roadways and allow extra travel time during morning rush hours.
Conditions stabilize midweek with highs in the low to mid-80s and minimal rain chances. Authorities warn that additional heat advisories could return later this week if ridging patterns rebuild.
