While rain continues across the Tri-State, strong, gusty winds will be an important factor. A WIND ADVISORY is out until 5 am, but you should expect that to get extended into Wednesday.

There will be a few embedded thunderstorms along with the rain, any storms are not expected to be severe. The first wave of rain should likely be gone by the time we get to the morning commute. However, we aren't done with the rain. After that dry start early in the day, scattered rain continues through the early afternoon. These showers will come with gusty winds and a few downpours.

Wind will stay strong through the day on Wednesday, with gusts from the south-southwest at 35 to 45 mph. That keeps temperatures warm to start the day with highs around 55°. However, our warmest temperatures will be during the first part of the day. Cold air behind our rainmaker will bring in cold enough air to bring a wintry mix of rain and snow into the evening. No significant accumulation is expected, but it will be quite chilly!
