Recommendation
Use extra caution if driving today. Safer morning option: after 11:00 AM to 1:00 PM is somewhat better than the 8:00–11:00 AM peak rain period, though roads will still be wet. Safer evening option: after 7:00 PM to 9:00 PM, when snow chances drop sharply and winds ease; avoid or minimize driving from 4:00–7:00 PM due to rain/snow transition and likely light snow.
