Disconnect all cables and peripherals: Disconnect any cables and external devices that are connected to the MacBook.

Leave the MacBook in a dry place: Leave the MacBook in a dry place, with the lid open in a flip position on a flat and soft surface, to allow any remaining moisture to evaporate. Make sure the surface is clean and Do not attempt to turn on the MacBook or charge the battery until a professional technician takes a look inside the machine to prevent getting the motherboard shorted or other components.
