Depends where you live in LA...the San Fernando Valley is hotter but the westside and downtown/hollywood is cooler. Was born and lived in LA on both sides of "the hill" until I was 46. The beaches rarely go above 80.

I moved to the 818 about twenty years ago to escape RI snow/winter. I complain every summer how hot it is out here, and it feels like it's getting hotter earlier each year. Used to be Aug and Sept were the brutal months; now it's July thru Oct.

I lived in the 818 from 1970s to 2003 before moving to Hollywood from 2003-2016. The valley was getting more and more brutal in the 1990s..Hollywood was usually 10 degrees cooler but still brutal. I am a weather junkie and monitor my former homes...it is getting hotter and you are getting more humidity..not as bad as out east..but humidity was a thing maybe a day or two a year when I was growing up but I have noticed LA is getting muggy days more frequently. The Pacific ocean is getting warmer. RI is getting much warmer too. We have only had one measurable snow storm all season (in Dec). It was 50 degrees today and most of February is predicted to be similar. The summers are brutal...many more plus 90-95 days with high dew points and lows above 75. The locals say winters are nothing like before and summer's heat waves (four days of 90+ weather) are more frequent. Climate change sucks
