Recommendation
If you must drive, avoid peak warning-commute hours and use the lowest-risk windows suggested by the hourly temperatures and winds: morning 9:00 AM–11:00 AM; evening 3:00 PM–5:00 PM. If you can postpone travel, do so until the warning’s hazardous window has ended and local road conditions are confirmed.
