SEPTA Ice Cream Social, Varsity Swim at Home on Wednesday

Good morning, Deer Park & North Babylon. Here's what Wednesday is looking like in town.

Weather

Well, here comes the rain! Temperatures and precipitation plummet today with rain expected through the day into the evening and highs only around 52 degrees. It only gets cooler at night with showers tapering off before midnight and a low of 43 degrees.

Traffic

Construction around the area seems to be at an end, but Sunrise Highway and the Southern State Parkway are always packed in the morning. If for some reason you need to head eastbound on the Ocean Parkway, prepare for backups with the roadway under emergency reconstruction following a recent storm's damage. Check out the traffic map above for up-to-date info.
