Good Weekend to Cool It, Catch Up on Your Reading
Read a book. Clean the kitchen. Carve a pumpkin.
Weather forecasters are predicting a cool and cloudy weekend, with showers possible this morning and Sunday night.
“It’s a typical rainy-season weather pattern,” said Rick Dittmann, a meteorologist for WeatherData Inc., which provides forecasts for The Times. “But usually, this happens more toward late November and early December.”
The gray clouds, which began producing some drizzle in Los Angeles late Friday morning, are the result of a cold front making its way south from the Gulf of Alaska, Dittmann said.
“It’s a vigorous pattern for this time of year,” he said. “But it doesn’t look like heavy rain.”
The chance of showers this morning is 30% to 40%, forecasters said, with winds at 15 to 20 miles per hour from the west and southwest. Any showers are expected to taper off by the afternoon.
Skies will remain partly to mostly cloudy through Sunday evening, when the chance of drizzle will again increase to 30% to 40%.
