Hot Spell Spikes with Mercury to Hit 87 in Pasadena

This week’s hot spell will reach a climax today, with highs in Pasadena and other local communities nearing or reaching record territory.

“We might get close,” National Weather Service meteorologist Dave Bruno said when asked about record highs.

High pressure and offshore flow will bring dry weather with well above-normal temperatures to southwestern California through Friday,” according to a National Weather Service statement. “It will be much cooler Saturday as onshore flow returns,” replacing the strong offshore winds the region has been experiencing. “There will be further cooling with a chance of showers Sunday into Monday as low pressure moves into the area. Dry and slightly warmer weather is expected for Tuesday.”

The week’s above-average temperatures resulted from a ridge of high pressure aloft combined with Santa Ana winds, which are now coming to an end.

Today’s highs will be far above average in a number of communities.

Warm temperatures during Southland winters are not unheard of, Bruno said, although how quickly the weather will turn is a little unusual, he added, noting that Sunday’s highs, amid rain, will be up to 24 degrees lower. At the same time, the snow level could drop to around 3,000 feet Sunday, he said.
