"Several more days of breezy Santa Ana winds will help boost temperatures across the Los Angeles area this week, hitting possible record highs by mid-week. "We're forecasted to warm up the next couple days," said Bryan Lewis, a National Weather Service meteorologist in Oxnard. "By Wednesday, much of the L.A. Basin will be in the 80s." Those summer-like temperatures are 10 to 15 degrees above average for this time of year, which could set some records, Lewis said."
"While gusts aren't expected to be as high as they were last week, wind advisories remain in effect through at least Monday afternoon, warning of gusts up to 40 mph for much of northern Los Angeles County and eastern Ventura County. Those advisories will likely be extended through the rest of the week, Lewis said. "Gusty winds will blow around unsecured objects," the advisories said. "Tree limbs could be blown down and a few power outages may result.""
Breezy Santa Ana winds will raise temperatures across the Los Angeles area into the 80s by Wednesday, about 10 to 15 degrees above normal and possibly reaching record highs. Warmth and gusty offshore winds are expected through at least Friday, with wind-prone corridors experiencing the strongest gusts. Wind advisories warn of gusts up to 40 mph across much of northern Los Angeles County and eastern Ventura County and may be extended through the week. Gusts can blow unsecured objects, down tree limbs and cause scattered power outages. Recent rains have left fuels and soils wet, keeping fire risk low but making trees more vulnerable.
