Rain is coming, followed by a cool down
Southern California might see some light rain tonight into Wednesday morning. After that, slightly cooler weather is on the way, but expect the humidity to remain.
Topline:
Los Angeles, Ventura and Santa Barbara counties could see scattered showers through Wednesday morning due to tropical moisture that's come up from the south. Heavier rain was expected to occur further north.
More heat: Warm ocean temperatures and light offshore winds have been driving the humidity and heat. Temperatures were expected to peak Tuesday, with low 90s in downtown L.A. and high 90s in the valley areas.

Then a cool down: Starting Wednesday, temperatures will likely drop back into the low 80s for downtown and the low 90s for the valleys, as some sea breezes return.
