National Weather Service Los Angeles/Oxnard CA
306 PM PDT Wed Jun 11 2025

.SYNOPSIS...11/1230 AM.

Night through morning low clouds and fog will continue for the
next several days over the coast and valleys with slow, if any,
clearing at the coast. Areas away from the coast will remain much
warmer than normal through the week.

&&

.SHORT TERM (TDY-SAT)...11/305 PM.

Little change is expected Thursday and Friday with similar
temperatures and a moderately deep marine layer that is expected
to again reach many of the coastal valleys. A warming trend will
begin Saturday as high pressure tries to expand west from Arizona.
Highs will warm 2-5 degrees area-wide with the biggest increases
in areas where the elevation is in the 800-2000 feet range, which
includes the coastal valleys and lower mountain locations. At this
time temperatures are not expected to reach heat advisory
criteria.

Gusty Sundowner winds will continue across southwest Santa Barbara
County and gusty southwest winds will again develop across the
Antelope Valley

.LONG TERM (SUN-WED)...11/304 PM.

Another warm day expected Sunday with similar to slightly warmer
temperatures. The ridge of high pressure is expected to weaken
early next week and be replaced by an upper level trough that will
bring temperatures back to normal levels. In addition, a
deepening marine layer will push marine layer stratus farther
inland with slower clearing.
