Good evening. Southern California. I'm Michael Mosby.

Step outside and you'll feel the calm before the bake, we're currently sitting at a pleasant 77 degrees under clear skies. But don't get used to this moderation, we're staring down the barrel of a historic heat wave. High pressure is building overhead. That so-called "nation's air conditioner"—the cool marine layer we usually rely on—is about to be switched off.

As the sun sets. Here's what's happening right now. Down in San Diego County, you're seeing some patchy fog along the coast this morning. It should burn off by mid-morning, elsewhere, skies are mostly clear. Tonight, expect mostly clear conditions across Greater Los Angeles with a low around 58 degrees. San Diego drops to about 54, in the Inland Empire, look for a low near 54.

Sunday brings the first big jump, it's going to feel like summer. Downtown Los Angeles tops out at 86 degrees, head to the Inland Empire. And highs soar to near 94, san Diego stays a bit cooler, with the coast reaching 77 degrees. But the real story is the heat arriving next week.

We've an Extreme Heat Watch in effect from Monday evening through Friday evening. This is dangerous stuff, tuesday could be the peak, with Downtown LA hitting 101 degrees. The Inland Empire might reach 100, even the coast will bake, with highs in the 90s. This is about 54 degrees above normal for mid-March.

Looking ahead. Here's your heads-up for the week ahead, while here comes a prolonged, record-breaking heat event. The heat builds Monday, peaks Tuesday and Wednesday. And holds strong through Friday. Overnight lows will stay warm, offering little relief. This kind of heat stress is a real threat, especially if you don't have air conditioning. If you're planning outdoor activities, you'll want to shift them to early morning.

See you tomorrow.

Good morning. Southern California. I'm Michael Mosby.

Yesterday felt like summer crashed the party early. Today? The coast just hit the reset button. A coastal eddy spinning offshore flipped our winds and dragged cooler air back into the region. Think of it as nature's air conditioner kicking on.

Down in Los Angeles, you're topping out at 73 degrees — a solid 50 degrees drop from Sunday's heat. South winds pick up to 10 miles an hour with gusts near 20. Tonight dips to 54 under partly cloudy skies.

San Diego County wakes up mostly cloudy with a slight chance of showers near the southern border. That low pressure system spinning off Baja could sneak a sprinkle or two into the county this afternoon, but most of us stay dry. Highs reach 68 degrees with breezy south winds. Tonight falls to 53 under partly cloudy skies.

Push inland to the Inland Empire and you're warming slightly to 75 degrees under sunny skies. Southwest winds gust to 25 miles an hour this afternoon. Tonight drops to 50 with partly cloudy conditions and continued breezy westerlies.

For the week. Tuesday brings the coolest day of the next seven — marine layer clouds spread across the coast and valleys. Highs in the upper 60s to low 70s.

Then Wednesday flips the script. High pressure builds over the Great Basin and offshore flow returns. Temperatures jump into the upper 70s to mid 80s. Thursday cranks the heat even higher — mid to upper 80s at the beaches, upper 80s to mid 90s inland. That's 50 degrees above normal, folks. Friday stays hot before a brief weekend cooldown.

Perfect day for a walk if you head out before the winds pick up this afternoon.

See you this afternoon.
