Weather Forecast for Tuesday, Oct. 28

LOS ANGELES – Fall is in full swing, but it’s going to feel more like summer across Southern California over the next few days. The heat will be paired with a Santa Ana wind event, sparking fire concerns for the region.

Heat, Low Humidity, and Santa Ana Winds

What we know:

Warmer temperatures will be noticeable across Southern California. Coastal communities will see temperatures approaching 80 degrees, while mountain areas will be closer to 70 degrees. Inland communities will hover around 90 degrees and higher.

“A ridge of high pressure continues to deflect all the rain to the north of us, and for us, ascending the season’s first Santa Ana winds is driving those temperatures higher,” FOX 11 meteorologist Soumada Khan explained. “We are also dealing with low relative humidity, with a range of 5 to even 10 percent, and that elevates our critical fire conditions across Southern California.”

World Series Forecast

For those headed to Dodger Stadium for Game 4 of the World Series, it’s going to be hotter than normal. “You want to prepare for the heat, dress accordingly, and you’re going to want to drink a lot of water,” said FOX 11 meteorologist Soumada Khan.
