Cooler Tuesday with scattered afternoon and evening showers

It will be much cooler on Tuesday with highs in the 50s. Plan for scattered afternoon and evening showers with wet weather that will continue into Wednesday.

Clouds rolled in overnight and will continue to increase through the morning. We expect light rain to move in later this afternoon and through the evening and overnight.

Temperatures will mainly be in the upper 50s to near 60 which is 15-20 degrees cooler than Monday. Rain looks to persist into Wednesday and the cooler 50s stick around as well.
