Los Angeles Climate & Weather

Sunny L.A. enjoys pleasant weather throughout the year. Ringed by mountains and the sea, the temperatures tend to be moderate - seldom exceeding 85 F°/30 C° or falling below 45 F°/7 C° - and sunshine reigns most of the year. Most rainfall occurs from late October to early April, and morning fog can be dense in winter. The farther inland you go, the greater the extremes of hot and cold, the more sun and the heavier the rain.
