Humidity in Philadelphia region decreases Wednesday after possible stray showers. Here's the weather forecast.

Wednesday will be a noticeably better weather day than Tuesday in the Philadelphia region, with stray showers possible early, followed by partly cloudy skies in the afternoon with decreasing humidity.

The shower chance will be much less, but still a few showers are expected here and there, so keep that umbrella handy. It will be a good day for cleaning up any debris that came down from Tuesday's storm.

NEXT big weather changes

Our next big change is a GREAT one. 

The humidity goes below "humid" (dewpoint less than 60 degrees) overnight Wednesday into Thursday morning and stays in the comfortable zone through Friday. 

By the weekend, it will be up just a tad, but for this time of year it will be relatively dry air, a wonderful weekend to head to the beaches, pools and water parks!
