Key Factors
- 01 Rain nearly all day (66-98% chance for most hours), with 0.5 to 0.75 inch expected during the day and 0.75 to 1 inch overnight, raising hydroplaning and ponding risk
- 02 Patchy fog from about 8am to 4pm and areas of fog from 4pm to 6pm, plus fog overnight, may reduce visibility (no visibility values provided)
- 03 Temperatures stay at 38-42F during the day, so ice is unlikely, but the overnight low near 36F is close enough to freezing to warrant caution on untreated surfaces
- 04 Northeast wind increases to 12-13 mph in the evening with gusts up to 23 mph overnight, a minor concern for high-profile vehicles
- 05 No active weather alerts were issued

Recommendation
Drive with extra caution: use low beams, slow down and leave extra following distance. Safer windows are late morning around 10am-12pm, when rain is steady but winds are light and fog is patchy, and early evening around 5-6pm is less ideal due to fog, so if needed go between 3pm and 4pm when rain is lightest (about 55% chance, light rain). Avoid late evening after 9pm when rain is heaviest (89-97%) and winds are gusty.
