Today in the Los Angeles basin, it will be cloudy clearing to sun and in the mid-60s. Along the coast, the temperatures look similar, with less chance of clouds clearing. The mountains will see more sun but much more chill in the air, with temperatures in the low to mid-50s. Areas further inland could see patchy drizzle this morning, with sun and temperatures making their way up to 70 this afternoon.
