Key Factors
- 01 Severe thunderstorms capable of heavy rain are forecast before 9:00 AM and again from 10:00 AM through the evening.
- 02 Rainfall totals of 0.75–1 inch during the day and 0.5–0.75 inch at night may cause water-covered roads and reduced traction.
- 03 Sustained winds increase from 13–22 mph during the day to 18–24 mph at night, with gusts up to 41 mph.
- 04 Hourly precipitation probabilities reach 90–95% from 1:00–7:00 PM and 97% at 10:00–11:00 PM.
- 05 Visibility and road-condition data are not provided, adding uncertainty about the severity of heavy-rain impacts.

Recommendation
Avoid nonessential driving. If travel is unavoidable, the relatively less hazardous morning window is 9:00–10:00 AM, when precipitation probability briefly falls to 53%; the relatively less hazardous evening window is 8:00–9:00 PM, when it falls to 57%. Neither window is hazard-free—thunderstorms and strong winds remain possible, so slow down, increase following distance, and do not drive through standing water.
