Recommendation
Avoid non-emergency travel entirely. If travel is unavoidable, the relatively least hazardous morning window is 6:00 AM - 8:00 AM before heavy precipitation begins; for the evening, 5:00 PM - 6:00 PM is slightly less severe than the extreme blizzard conditions and high winds occurring later tonight.
