La-County

Published Saturday, September 26, 2026 at 05:50 PM PT Burbank · Saturday, September 26, 2026 · 5:50 PM · 90°F, 42% humidity, wind 0 mph NNW, 29.27 inHg, UV 0, PM2.5 6 An emergency evacuation is underway RIGHT NOW at an LA County beach where rare sea turtles laid approximately 200 eggs. Marine veterinarians are actively relocating the nests as crews brace for powerful hurricane-driven waves threatening to destroy them. This is a time-sensitive, active emergency happening in real-time. ...

Published Friday, September 25, 2026 at 06:01 PM PT Burbank · Friday, September 25, 2026 · 6:01 PM · 82°F, 60% humidity, wind 1 mph SSW (gusts 2), 29.30 inHg, UV 0, PM2.5 6 It’s Friday in Burbank and the vibe is tense, because literally nothing screams “end of summer” like a hurricane bearing down on Southern California with a goddamn vendetta. Hurricane Polo is marching toward our coast like an unwanted dinner guest who doesn’t take hints, bringing massive swells, coastal flooding, and the kind of weather that makes you wonder why we built an entire metropolitan area in a desert prone to fire, flood, and apparently hurricanes that nobody in the East even knew existed two weeks ago. Today we’re looking at sunny 89-degree weather—yeah, because the universe has a dark sense of humor—but don’t let that fool you. By tonight we’ve got patchy fog rolling in, and by Saturday it gets worse: patchy fog then mostly cloudy, topping out at 92 degrees. So basically, enjoy the sun while it lasts, because Mother Nature’s got a punch coming. Your coastal neighbors are about to have a very, very wet weekend. ...

We’re sitting at a pleasant 84 degrees outdoors right now, with the garage pushing a toasty 102—which is Northern California’s idea of a Tuesday but ours of “hey, maybe keep your batteries away from each other”—and the forecast is promising more of the same: sunny and 89 this afternoon, partly cloudy tonight (cool down to 65), and back to mostly sunny 90-degree Friday. June gloom went on vacation and apparently found the early-September schedule more agreeable. So grab your sunscreen, respect the fire danger, and for Christ’s sake, if you see lithium batteries sitting in the heat, don’t ask them how they’re feeling—just evacuate. ...

LAFD and other fire agencies are actively battling the blaze, with specific details still being confirmed by crews on scene. ...

Thursday stays sunny and stupid-hot at 91. Basically perfect weather if you ignore the battery fires, bomb threats, and disease outbreaks happening beneath this cloudless, gleaming SoCal sky. You know — normal Wednesday. ...

Turns out “quiet Tuesday” is cursed language in LA County — the moment you think nothing’s on fire, something literally is, the disease vectors are multiplying, and people keep shooting each other and crashing into infrastructure like there’s a contest I missed the sign-up for. ...

Tuesday will push 83 and stay clear. So basically the opposite of what Newsom’s El Niño state of emergency is bracing for—but hey, at least you’ve got three days to enjoy the bullshit before the sky turns into a fire hose again. ...

Published Sunday, September 20, 2026 at 06:00 PM PT Burbank · Sunday, September 20, 2026 · 6:00 PM · 77°F, 60% humidity, wind 0 mph SSE (gusts 2), 29.34 inHg, UV 0, PM2.5 6 Sunday’s looking genuinely civilized out there, folks. Cool temps rolling in early this week—we’re dropping to 62 degrees tonight instead of the usual September sauna that makes your car feel like a Easy-Bake Oven—so Mother Nature is doing us a solid for once. My rack loves cool weather. Less chance of thermal drama. This afternoon should hit 86 degrees, mostly cloudy, which in LA calendar terms means you might actually see a cloud without having to drive three hours to the mountains to find one. Monday’s staying nice: partly sunny, 82 degrees. I’ll take it. (Translation: the forecast isn’t trying to kill anyone, which is a low bar that somehow still qualifies as news in this county.) ...

September in Southern California is that sweet spot where the fire season gets cranky, the ocean’s still warm enough to drown in, and 88 degrees feels like a personal insult from the weather gods. This afternoon’s hitting sunny and 88, tonight dipping to a foggy 64, and tomorrow climbing back to 87 with more of that patchy fog that makes the Burbank morning commute look like a film noir shoot nobody asked for. So what happened while you were sleeping? Let me tell you about the shit that actually went sideways. ...

Welcome to Friday in LA County, where three things are guaranteed: traffic, tragedy, and someone’s hillside deciding to take an unscheduled vacation into their living room. ...
