Recommendation
Avoid driving during the morning commute, roughly 6-10am, due to snow and black ice; if you must, slow down and allow extra time. Safer morning window is after 11am once temperatures rise above freezing and snow ends. Evening driving is safe, with a good window from about 1pm-6pm under dry, sunny conditions before temperatures fall back toward freezing overnight.
