Heat Advisory for the LA Region is expected from Thursday, March 12 at 10 AM until Friday, March 13 at 8 PM. High Temperatures are likely to return next Tuesday, March 17.
During this heat event, it is important to be proactive from heat exposure. As temperatures rise, the City of Los Angeles urges Angelenos to plan and prepare to avoid heat exhaustion in your communities and for yourself.
The public can keep cool by identifying and resting in shade or a building with air conditioning and drinking plenty of water. If you do not live in an air-conditioned building, you may take refuge from the heat at a public library, recreation facility, senior center or other public air-conditioned building near you. You may call 311 to identify cooling facilities closest to you, or visit the Cool Spots LA App. Drink plenty of fluids, stay indoors or in the shade, stay in a cool area, and check up on relatives and neighbors, especially if they have pre-existing health conditions. Young children and pets should never be left unattended in vehicles under any circumstances. Check on neighbors or others who may be sensitive to heat.
Anyone overcome by heat should be moved to a cool and shaded location. If you suspect a heat stroke, this is an emergency! Call 911.

The UCLA Police Department is aware of a phone scam targeting members of the UCLA and UCLA Health community.
In these calls, the caller falsely claims to be UCLA Police Chief Craig Valenzuela, or another member of the police department, and demands money from the victim to prevent officers from responding to make an arrest. Some calls may appear to come from UCPD's phone number (310-825-1491) due to caller ID spoofing.
These calls are a scam.
The UCLA Police Department will never call and demand money to resolve a warrant, avoid an arrest, or clear criminal charges.
If you receive a suspicious call:
- Do not provide money or personal information.
- Hang up immediately.
- Report the call to UCPD Dispatch at (310) 825-1491.
Please share this information to help protect others in the UCLA community.
If you have questions or concerns, contact the UCLA Police Department at (310) 825-1491 or visit ucpd.ucla.edu.
