Climate Projections: Temperature
Temp projection

The majority of climate studies reveal an ongoing warming trend across the globe, and Los Angeles is no exception. The map on the right shows projected changes in 1) average and 2) maximum temperature by 2050 (toggle between layers using the legend at the top left). This projection uses the most sustainable emission scenario from the IPCC. A rise in temperatures is expected across the region, especially inland Southern California.
