During an LA spring, while the occasional rain and cooler days may occur, it is also very common to experience temperatures soaring into the 80s. Moreover, average high temperatures hover around the low 70s, creating a comfortable contrast to the sweltering inland summer temperatures reaching 90-100 degrees.
