LOS ANGELES, CA – A stretch of bright, comfortable fall weather continues across Southern California this weekend, offering nearly perfect conditions for pumpkin patches, outdoor markets, and holiday travel before a brief cool-down early next week.
According to the National Weather Service Los Angeles/Oxnard, high pressure will hold through Columbus Day, keeping skies mostly sunny and daytime highs in the upper 70s across East Los Angeles, Pasadena, and the San Fernando Valley. Light east winds near 10 mph will make for pleasant conditions along I-5 and I-10, where travel delays are not expected.
By Sunday night into Columbus Day, patchy fog could form in coastal and valley areas, briefly reducing visibility for early commuters. Forecasters say temperatures on Monday will cool slightly, with highs near 70 degrees and a mix of sun and clouds — ideal for outdoor holiday events and park visits.
A minor pattern change arrives Monday night, when a weak Pacific front could bring the first light rain chances since early fall. Rain becomes more likely by Tuesday, especially north of downtown Los Angeles and into the foothills. Drivers are urged to use caution on slick roads if showers develop.
Midweek conditions turn mostly sunny again, with mild fall temperatures holding steady through Thursday. For gardeners and pet owners, no frost or cold snaps are expected, making this a comfortable mid-October stretch across Southern California.
