The New Disneyland + 'Danger To Society' + A Father's Love

ORANGE COUNTY, CA — The weekend is finally here — the first weekend after the full reopening. For the first time in a long while, there are museum exhibits, packed Angels games, clubs and restaurants to choose from.

However, the unseasonably warm weather will continue into the weekend thanks to a stubborn high-pressure system lingering above Southern California.

Saturday's Weather:

Inland Orange County communities can expect highs in the upper 80s and low 90s in some places while the coast is expected to enjoy breezy conditions with highs hovering in the mid 70s.

Sunrise Saturday will be at 5:42 a.m. and sunset will be at 8:05 p.m.

High tide on Saturday is at 5:54 p.m. at 5.18 feet. Low tide is at 11:07 a.m. at .95 feet.
