Key Factors
- 01 No active weather alerts and daytime probability of precipitation is 0% in the hourly data.
- 02 Daytime high near 36°F with light northwest winds around 6 mph—dry and sunny through late afternoon.
- 03 Overnight and early-morning temperatures are well below freezing (18–30°F early), which raises the risk of black ice on untreated surfaces (bridges/shaded areas).
- 04 Small chance of light snow showers begins after 2:00 AM on 2026-02-14 (night period) — not expected during the daytime 2026-02-13, but indicates changing conditions after midnight.
- 05 Visibility and road-surface condition data are not provided in the input, so localized icy patches or untreated areas cannot be ruled out (reduces confidence).
Recommendation
Safer morning window: 12:00–14:00 (local, -05:00) when temperatures are near or just above freezing and roads should be driest. Safer evening window: 15:00–17:00 (local, -05:00) — daylight, peak daytime temperatures and light winds. Avoid very early-morning travel (06:00–09:00) and late-night travel after 23:00 when subfreezing temps increase the risk of black ice and there is a rising chance of snow after 02:00 on 2026-02-14.
