Driving is generally possible today but conditions carry elevated risk: a small chance of light snow with subfreezing temperatures this morning and gusty northwest/west winds with very cold wind chills tonight. Take caution, especially during the early-morning snow window and after sunset when wind chill and gusts increase.
- 01 Cold Weather Advisory in effect with forecasted very cold wind chills (alert text indicates wind chills 5 to 10°F below zero).
- 02 Chance of light snow before ~10:00 AM (probability ~20–30%) with new accumulation up to ~0.5 inch — at subfreezing temperatures this can create slick spots.
- 03 Temperatures remain well below freezing all day (mid teens to upper 20s °F), so wet pavement can freeze and untreated surfaces can be icy.
- 04 Winds gusting (daily product notes gusts up to ~22–28 mph) late afternoon/evening may affect vehicle handling, especially for high‑profile vehicles.
- 05 No visibility or road-surface friction measurements provided; forecast contains some inconsistent wind‑chill details between products, reducing certainty.
Driving OK for typical trips with caution. If possible avoid nonessential travel during: • Early morning (approx. 06:00–10:00 local) — chance of light snow and potential slick spots. • After sunset (from about 19:00 local onward) — very cold wind chills and stronger gusts; ice formation overnight likely. If you must drive: slow down, allow extra stopping distance, watch for slick patches, secure warm clothing and emergency supplies, and give extra caution to high‑profile vehicles in gusty winds. Check local road/official updates before travel.
