Angelenos are forewarned to prepare for an unusual stretch of cooler weather and rain this coming week. Forecasts indicate temperatures dipping into the 60s, significantly lower than the historical average of 71 degrees for early April. Meteorologist Mike Wofford from the National Weather Service mentioned that this pattern could last up to nine days and is attributed to a series of storms originating from the Pacific Northwest. Rainfall amounts are expected to be light, although uncertainty remains regarding potential heavier rainfall later in the week.
"It's going to be at least a week - eight or nine days - of this off-and-on rainy and cool pattern," said Mike Wofford, a National Weather Service meteorologist in Oxnard. "We're going to be cooler than normal probably through next week, so get used it."
"Temperatures are expected to remain in the 60s, several degrees below normal, for the next week or so. The average for this time of year is around 71 degrees in downtown Los Angeles," Wofford said.
"We're running anywhere from about 3 to 8 degrees below normal, and it's going to stay that way or even get a little cooler," Wofford said.
However, with the forecast still a bit uncertain, the possibility for some heavy rainfall is not completely ruled out, according to the weather service modeling.
