Mob Informant Spills Beans On O.J. Simpson | Mass Shooting | Activist Honored | SoCal In Brief

SOUTHERN CALIFORNIA — As we head into the new week, we've rounded up the stories you may have missed Saturday and Sunday to prepare you for Monday.

But before we jump into Southern California's top stories, wet weather is expected this week, with rain possibly arriving by Wednesday, according to the National Weather Service.

"Cooler weather will be returning to Southern California, with below-normal temperatures by Tuesday," National Weather Service San Diego forecasters wrote Sunday.

By Tuesday, temperatures will drop into the 70s across most inland areas. Widespread rain is likely Wednesday and Thursday with a slight chance of thunderstorms. Overnight lows will drop too during the week, sinking into the 50s in the downtown Los Angeles and valley areas by Wednesday night. Dry skies and warmer temperatures are expected to return next weekend.

A beach hazards statement remained in effect at Los Angeles and Orange County beaches through Tuesday morning, with dangerous rip currents and breaking waves due to elevated surf of 3 to 6 feet expected.

In other news, the U.S. Coast Guard in San Diego continued searching for possible survivors after a boat reportedly sank after departing Ensenada, Mexico; a brush fire near Camp Pendleton was 65% contained on Sunday; an Orange County congressman received a suspicious envelope that prompted an evacuation; and two men in Long Beach were found dead after a police shooting.
