The rain will develop Tuesday afternoon across Metro Vancouver and it will be wet, on and off, all week as a series of systems move onshore.

This is a good time to remind drivers that when you turn your wipers on you should turn your lights on, too.

It can be very tough to see cars in rainy conditions.
