October beginning with heat warnings – NBC Los Angeles
[ad_1]
Fall-like temperatures are on hold, yet again.
Despite the beginning of the new season less than two weeks ago, Southern California is still heating up with temperatures expected to be approximately 10 degrees above normal throughout next week.
The newest heat wave comes just weeks after a near record-setting heat wave scoured the Los Angeles area throughout late August and early September for weeks. The high temperatures are also elevating fire risks as several parts of the region are also still on fire, including the Bridge and Line fires in San Bernardino County, and the Airport fire in Riverside County.
The newest heat advisory from the Los Angeles County Department of Public Health will take effect from Tuesday through Wednesday for six parts of Southern California, including:
- Calabasas/Agoura Hills
- East San Gabriel Mountains
- East Santa Monica Mountains
- Eastern Antelope Valley
- San Gabriel Valley
- Santa Susana Mountains
- West Santa Monica Mountains
Temperatures are expected to begin creeping up as early as Tuesday morning, reaching a high of 89 degrees, according to NBC4 meteorologists.
The heat will continue to rise another five degrees on Wednesday before finally beginning to cool on Thursday, sinking back down to 91.
Temperatures are expected to stay in the low 90s until next Tuesday, when Los Angeles will finally move back into the mid-80s once again.

Events set to commemorate first anniversary of Oct. 7 attacks – NBC Los Angeles
[ad_1]
Continuing events commemorating the one-year anniversary of the Oct. 7 Hamas attack on Israel, the Jewish Federation Los Angeles Monday will host a program at the Saban Theatre in Beverly Hills billed as a way to “remember victims and honor the resilience of survivors.”
Organized by the Jewish Federation Los Angeles, Israeli-American Council, StandWithUs and Temple of the Arts, doors open at 6:30 p.m. Monday for “L.A. Remembers.” Among those expected to attend are actress Mayim Bialik, Israeli actress Moran Atias, Israeli performer Raviv Kaner, as well as more than 30 elected officials including Rep. Brad Sherman, D-Sherman Oaks.
There will also be a candle-lighting ceremony and speeches from relatives of hostages.
The event will be livestreamed at https://form.jotform.com/JFedLAForms/LARemembers-waitlist.
“Coming together to commemorate October 7th offers all of us an opportunity to gather strength as we share a sense of community that supports Israel and fights to keep the faces of the hostages front and center in everyone’s hearts until they all come home to their families,” Roz Rothstein, founder and CEO of StandWithUs, said in a statement.
Additionally, Beverly Hills community leaders, elected officials, religious leaders and residents will gather at 6 a.m. near the city’s Israel Flag installation to commemorate the one-year anniversary. Beverly Hills Mayor Lester Friedman and council members John Mirisch, Mary Wells and Craig Corman are expected to attend.
Meanwhile, IfNotNow Los Angeles will gather at downtown’s Gloria Molina Grand Park, which they say will be attended by “hundreds of American Jews” to honor the one-year anniversary of the Hamas attacks on Israel, and the ensuing “brutal collective punished by the Israeli government” over the past year. The event slated for 6 p.m. is intended to “remind elected officials and fellow Americans that violence is antithetical to Jewish values and that it will never keep any of us safe.”
On Sunday, the Jewish Federation Los Angeles held a reception and candle-lighting ceremony at the Museum of Tolerance Los Angeles.
“It was not the last chapter of my life,” Andrey Kozlov, who was held hostage for eight months and a day, said at the event that coincided with the exact moment of the Oct. 7 attacks.
“Something better is coming, and here I am with lots of opportunities. I became some kind of voice of hostages, and I am able to speak.”
Mayor Karen Bass said “Today, we must continue our prayers for safety and peace. As conflict rises in the Middle East, we often see a troubling rise in antisemitism around the world, including here in L.A. So let me be unequivocally clear — antisemitism has absolutely no place in L.A.”
