Strong Winds, Moderate Temperatures In Studio City

STUDIO CITY, CA — Strong winds are once again expected to buffet Studio City and the rest of Los Angeles this weekend. Wind gusts in parts of the city could reach as high as 65 mph, while wind speeds in Studio City could reach up to 35 mph.

Winds are expected to peak on Saturday night and Sunday before calming back down on Monday.

The new advisories and watches posted Friday come a day after moderate to strong Santa Ana winds battered parts of the L.A. area -- making driving treacherous on some mountain and valley roadways -- before abating.
