The first week of March is set to be a windy but warm one, weather officials say.<\/p>\n
Winds of 40 miles per hour and\u00a0higher are in\u00a0the forecast starting\u00a0Sunday afternoon.\u00a0The winds will help usher in a \u201csteady cooling trend\u201d with some low clouds and dense fog, but that will only last through Monday, according to the National Weather Service<\/a>.<\/p>\n The weather service added that \u201cwidespread moderate to locally strong winds\u201d could still be felt in the Southland on Tuesday and through the end of the week; despite this, an offshore flow will likely \u201ccontribute to a few to several degrees of warming\u201d as the week goes on.<\/p>\n 48th Firecracker Run takes over L.A.\u2019s Chinatown! <\/a><\/p>\n There is also a chance of\u00a0possible showers\u00a0over mountain communities\u00a0this week, but the precipitation would be light, meteorologists say.<\/p>\n Due to the blustery conditions, NWS officials recommended those who plan\u00a0on going\u00a0to the beach to \u201cconsider adjusting\u201d ocean activities and outdoor events\u00a0since there is\u00a0a high risk\u00a0for hazardous seas and driving\u00a0conditions.<\/p>\n
