It’s a new season as a low-pressure system from the north brings cooler temperatures this week, with windy conditions starting Monday afternoon.
Sunday saw temperatures turn cooler after a warmer than normal week, while autumn-like conditions set in with below-average temperatures.
Highs on Monday will be mostly in the 60s, with downtown Los Angeles reaching 69 degrees. Mountain showers are also in the cooling mix.
Strong northerly winds have led to wind advisories in areas including some beach communities, with winds expected to pick up in the afternoon hours. The strongest winds will blow across mountain and desert communities, with an advisory in effect until 9 p.m.
“It’s going to start to feel a lot more like fall during Halloween and beyond,” KCAL News meteorologist Paul Deanno said.
Halloween, Thursday, is expected to be dry with a high of 72 degrees in the Inland Empire, 77 degrees in the Valleys and 68 degrees in the Los Angeles metro area.
Another, larger system will drop temperatures even further by the end of the week, according to KCAL News meteorologist Amber Lee. A 40% chance of rain is expected on Saturday.
