Wednesday is forecast to be the eighth day in a row that downtown L.A. hasn't topped 60 degrees, a chilly streak not seen in the city since 2005.

Los Angeles is on track to experience its longest cold snap in almost 20 years this week asblasts the region with heavy and low-elevation snow, strong winds and significant rain.

Los Angeles’ normal average for the month is 69 degrees, making this recent streak well “below normal,” said Ryan Kittell, a meteorologist with the National Weather Service office in Oxnard.Though this streak could tie a similar eight-day cold snap in January 2005, it pales in comparison to the longest on record: 20 straight days under 60 degrees in 1949, according to Kittell.

The cold temperatures, coupled with the moisture from a low-pressure system hanging over the state, could once again bring low-elevation snowfall to Southern California after last week’s rare eventFoothill communities including La Crescenta-Montrose, La Cañada Flintridge and Santa Clarita, as well as in the Antelope Valley, could see some snow by Wednesday morning, Kittell said.
