March 23rd brings persistent rain showers through the morning and early afternoon, with temperatures hovering in the low 40s°F and wind gusts up to 28 mph. Conditions improve significantly by late afternoon, clearing out for the evening — though temperatures will drop near freezing overnight.
- 01 Heavy rain showers from 7–8 AM with a near-certain 97% precipitation probability, tapering through early afternoon (chance showers until ~3 PM) — wet roads throughout the morning.
- 02 Temperatures in the 40–44°F range during rain create a risk of surface water and reduced traction; no ice risk while raining, but approaching near-freezing conditions.
- 03 North winds of 9–12 mph with gusts up to 28 mph throughout the day may affect vehicle handling, especially for high-profile vehicles.
- 04 Evening temperatures dropping to 31–35°F after wet roads — residual moisture could freeze overnight, creating black ice risk late evening into early morning.
- 05 No visibility data provided, so fog or spray-related hazard levels cannot be fully assessed — treat with caution during peak rain hours.
**Morning safe window:** If possible, delay driving until **10:00 AM – 11:00 AM**, when precipitation probability drops below 50% and the heaviest rain has passed. Avoid the 7–9 AM window if you can, as rain is near-certain and most intense. **Evening safe window:** **5:00 PM – 7:00 PM** offers the best evening conditions — rain has stopped, skies are mostly clear to partly cloudy, and temperatures are still above 39°F before the overnight freeze sets in. Avoid driving after 10 PM as temperatures fall to 36–35°F on potentially damp roads, raising black ice risk.
