Rain will last into the evening hours.
The rain will be light to moderate at times, and amount to around a half of an inch regionwide.
Although the rain may disrupt daily commutes and such, it isn't expected to lead to any flooding. Instead, it will be very beneficial, given that a large portion of the Tri-State Area is currently in a moderate to severe drought.
Highs on Wednesday will be much cooler, topping out in the mid to upper 60s.

The chance of showers lingers into Thursday, while Friday is expected to be dry.
