Key Factors
- 01 No active weather alerts and daytime probability of precipitation is 0% through early evening.
- 02 Temperatures remain below freezing (14–31°F) all day, so untreated surfaces, bridges, and shaded spots could be icy from overnight frost or residual moisture.
- 03 Winds are light (about 5–8 mph), so crosswind hazard is minimal; a small (≈30%) chance of light snow with <0.5" accumulation is forecast after 11 PM, outside the daytime driving window.
- 04 Visibility data is not provided in the input, so localized fog or reduced visibility cannot be ruled out — this increases uncertainty slightly.

Recommendation
Morning: preferable to drive between 09:00–11:00 local time when temperatures are warming from the low teens to mid-20s and roads are less likely to be icy. Evening: if you must drive after daytime, choose 17:00–18:00 (5–6 PM) before the small chance of light snow begins late at night. Use caution on bridges/overpasses, allow extra stopping distance, and reduce speed on any glazed/treated surfaces.
