Temperatures To Drop Sharply By Week's End In Westwood-Century City
By the end of the work week, temperatures are expected to be nearly 20 degrees cooler than last weekend in Westwood-Century City.
LOS ANGELES, CA — Temperatures across the region are expected to drop sharply this week compared to the heat wave triggered by Santa Ana winds over the weekend.
With the dissipation of the Santa Anas, June gloom has returned with cloudy mornings giving way to sunny skies throughout the week. With the strengthening onshore flow comes a deepening marine layer with progressively higher humidity and cooler weather. That marine layer will deepen and spread far inland, to the coastal foothills and valleys.
Expect a cool day on Friday, as daytime temperatures will be approximately 15 degrees cooler than Monday.

Similarly, the San Gabriel Valley is expected to go from a high of 88 degrees on Tuesday down to 69 on Friday.
