L.A. Christmas holiday forecast: Wet and cloudy gives way to crisp sunny skies
A weakening cold front will zip through Los Angeles County on Christmas Eve, bringing a light smattering of rain in the afternoon, but clearing out by the evening.
"I can't imagine it will be a damper for anyone," meteorologist Joe Sirard with the National Weather Service office in Oxnard said.
Overall, Christmas Day in Los Angeles will be relatively dry, windy and sunny with daytime temperatures mostly in the 60s.
