After a rainy and humid afternoon drive and the same conditions overnight, cooler temperatures arrive Tuesday.
Heavy rain ended around 11 p.m., and any scattered showers shuffle out by 4 a.m. followed by a cold front.
Showers and an isolated thunderstorm will cross the area over the next few hours as a cold front moves through. Winds gusting up to 35 mph will develop after the front passes, with temperatures and humidity both dropping significantly by early Tuesday. pic.twitter.com/r0VkVJBeCz

Tuesday itself is expected to be sunny and warm but comfortable.
“Sunshine, a refreshing breeze, and a gorgeous Tuesday with pleasantly warm highs near 80,” said Storm Team4 meteorologist Steven Prinzivalli.
The next chance for showers will be late Wednesday into Thursday.
