Tuesday Evening Update: Some Welcome Rain on the Way…

This NYS radar loop runs from 6pm to 7:30pm, and the Hudson Valley is in the lower right quadrant of the radar.

The first few sprinkles are beginning to move into the Catskills at this hour… but otherwise, the Hudson Valley remains dry so far. These bands of scattered rain showers will continue pushing east/southeast over the next few hours… and should reach our area by around midnight. Make sure you plan for a rainy Wednesday morning commute, so allow a few extra minutes on the roadways… and make sure to send the kiddies have the rain gear and umbrellas at the bus stop tomorrow morning. Temps will tumble during the day, so get ready for fall temps as well!
