April Showers on Their Way

Swap out the beach towels and Boogie boards for umbrellas and jackets Thursday through Saturday, forecasters advise.

Orange County's schizophrenic spring weather shifts back to chilly and rainy Thursday through Saturday, according to the National Weather Service.

A cold front creeping south along the West Coast is expected to bring strong onshore winds and hazardous seas Thursday, along with possible showers and thunderstorms continuing into early Saturday.

Temperatures should peak in the 50s to low 60s during the day before dropping into the mid-40s overnight, forecasters predicted. In Rossmoor, today’s high is expected to reach 61.
