A cold front is expected to bring some light rain Wednesday to the Lehigh Valley.<\/p>\n
The front will move from west to east, and rain should begin later in the morning, according to the National Weather Service in Mount Holly, New Jersey. Severe weather is not likely, but there could be some isolated thunderstorms, forecasters said.<\/p>\n
Between a quarter of an inch and half an inch of rain could fall through the day.<\/p>\n
\u201cShowers will move into our area later this morning, slowly pushing through towards the coast as the day goes on,\u201d meteorologists wrote Wednesday in their daily forecast discussion.<\/a> \u201cIt won\u2019t be the nicest early May day but it won\u2019t be a total washout either, especially for areas south and east of the I-95 corridor.\u201d<\/p>\n Any rain that falls would be beneficial. Lehigh and Northampton counties are under drought conditions, according to the U.S. Drought Monitor.<\/a><\/p>\n Both counties have had about 4 inches below normal rainfall over the past six months, weather service data states.<\/a><\/p>\n Good morning! We see some rain later today as showers slowly move through the area. Temperatures get into the upper 60s\/low 70s later today. #NJwx<\/a> #MDwx<\/a> #DEwx<\/a> #PAwx<\/a> pic.twitter.com\/SewJhSACUX<\/a><\/p>\n
