Key Factors
- 01 Rain showers are likely from 7 AM through 1 PM with precipitation probability peaking at 44% around 8 AM, creating wet and potentially slippery road surfaces.
- 02 Southeast winds of 6 to 10 mph with gusts up to 22 mph during the daytime period may affect vehicle stability, especially for higher-profile vehicles.
- 03 Temperatures in the mid-to-upper 40s (46–50°F) during the morning rain period keep roads above freezing, but wet pavement still reduces traction.
- 04 Precipitation probability drops sharply after 1 PM (down to 6–12%), and winds ease to 6 mph or less by late afternoon, making afternoon and early evening much safer for driving.
- 05 Patchy fog is forecast after 2 AM on April 23, posing a visibility hazard for any very late-night or early-morning driving near the end of the day.
- 06 No active weather alerts are in effect for today.
Recommendation
Morning window: If you must drive in the morning, prefer 9:00 AM to 10:00 AM when rain chances are slightly lower (33%) compared to the 8 AM peak, but remain cautious of wet roads and gusts. Evening window: 6:00 PM to 9:00 PM is the safest period — rain has ended, winds have calmed to 2–6 mph, temperatures are mild (53–55°F), and fog has not yet developed. Avoid driving after 2:00 AM due to patchy fog.
