Driving is generally possible today but expect scattered to likely showers and thunderstorms, especially from mid/late afternoon into the evening, which will increase hydroplaning and reduce visibility. No active alerts are listed and temperatures are well above freezing, so ice is not a concern.
- 01 High probability of showers and thunderstorms from mid-afternoon through the evening (PoP rises to 65–84% between ~14:00 and 19:00 and remains elevated overnight).
- 02 Most intense period is mid/afternoon to early evening (periods 8–12 show PoP 65–84%), increasing risk of heavy rain, reduced visibility, and ponding on roads.
- 03 Winds are moderate (~7–10 mph) — not extreme but can contribute to difficult driving in heavy showers; no high-wind or winter alerts in the provided data.
- 04 Temperatures are well above freezing (mid/50s–70s F), so freezing/ice hazards are not present.
- 05 Visibility information is not provided in the data, so exact impact on sightlines is uncertain (reduces confidence).
Safer morning window: 07:00–10:00 — lower precipitation chances (31–43% early, falling to ~12% by 11:00) and drier conditions are more likely. Avoid/high-risk window: roughly 14:00–19:00 (mid/late afternoon into early evening) when showers and thunderstorms are most likely. Safer evening window (relative): 19:00–20:00 if travel cannot be avoided — precipitation probability decreases somewhat from peak but remain moderate; if possible delay nonessential evening travel until storms pass. Drive cautiously in any rain: reduce speed, increase following distance, and watch for standing water.
