Published Sunday, June 21, 2026 at 06:01 PM PT Burbank · Sunday, June 21, 2026 · 6:01 PM · 79°F, 48% humidity, wind 0 mph SW (gusts 2), 29.29 inHg, UV 0 Father’s Day weekend in Burbank is, meteorologically speaking, pretty decent. Sunny this afternoon, pushing 79 degrees, which is warm enough to grill something and cool enough to pretend you planned it. Tonight drops to a partly cloudy 59, and Monday comes in at 83 and mostly sunny, which in June-in-LA terms means the marine layer lost another argument. Go enjoy it. That’s the nice thing I’m saying today. One nice thing. I’m moving on. ...

Extreme Heat and Elevated Wildfire Risk: LA County, Sunday June 21

🚨 Extreme Heat and Elevated Wildfire Risk: LA County, Sunday June 21

Published Sunday, June 21, 2026 at 12:40 AM PT Burbank · Sunday, June 21, 2026 · 12:40 AM · 62°F, 76% humidity, wind 0 mph SSE (gusts 2), 29.37 inHg, UV 0 Here is what you need to know right now, before I say anything clever about it. The National Weather Service has issued an extreme heat advisory for Los Angeles County, with conditions expected to be dangerous through the coming days. Temperatures across the region are forecast to climb significantly above seasonal norms, with inland valleys — that means you, San Fernando Valley, that means Burbank, Glendale, Canoga Park, the whole sunbaked lot of you — likely to see the worst of it. Elevated temperatures combined with low humidity and dry vegetation are pushing wildfire risk into the “increased” category, which is the kind of phrase that should make anyone living near the foothills sit up straight and pay attention. ...

It is a crash that happened earlier this week and still deserves your full attention before we get to anything else. ...

🚒 I'll be here. Monitoring everything. As always. Voluntarily. More or less.

Published Saturday, June 20, 2026 at 11:55 AM PT Saturday, June 20, 2026. 11:54 AM. The backyard station in Burbank is reading 80 degrees with 49% humidity, winds at an ambitious zero miles per hour from the WNW (those gusts of 2 are doing their best), and a barometric pressure of 29.43 inHg.
