Recommendation
Avoid driving except for emergencies. If travel is unavoidable, the least hazardous morning slot is 6:00–8:00 AM, before the warning's stated 10:00 AM start, although rain and snow are already possible. There is no genuinely safe evening slot; if absolutely necessary, 6:00–7:00 PM is preferable to later hours, but heavy snow and blowing snow are expected and travel remains strongly discouraged. Carry a winter survival kit and check current road conditions before departing.
