April 5th in Long Beach sits in that transitional sweet spot — a 55° average high that feels more like a promise than a payoff.

Long Beach doesn't mess around at the extremes — this barrier island has cooked at 104° in July 1966 and bottomed out at -2° in January 1985, a 106-degree spread. The wettest single day on record dumped 8.05 inches during a September 2023 storm, and the Blizzard of 2016 buried the city under 30.3 inches of snow in a single day.
Summer is the clear star here, with highs peaking at 85° the week of July 16–22 and the ocean keeping things comfortable well into September. If you're cold-averse, avoid mid-January when average highs scrape just 38°.
