Key Factors
- 01 No active weather alerts
- 02 High probability of precipitation (60-92%) throughout the day
- 03 Steady rain expected from late morning through overnight, with 0.5-0.75 inch during the day and 1-2 inches overnight
- 04 Winds around 12-13 mph with gusts to 23 mph, may cause minor handling issues especially for high-profile vehicles
- 05 Temperatures in low-to-mid 40s, not near freezing, so no ice risk
- 06 Wet pavement increases stopping distances and hydroplaning risk, especially during heaviest rain 1pm-10pm

Recommendation
Early morning driving between 7am-9am has lower rain probability (23-31%) and is the safer window. If driving in the evening, aim for after 10pm when rain chances remain high but conditions are consistent rather than intensifying; otherwise expect continuous heavy rain through the evening commute. Use headlights, reduce speed, and increase following distance throughout the day.
