Summary
Driving conditions are not ideal today due to persistent rain from morning through late evening, with the steadiest and most widespread rain developing from late morning onward. Temperatures stay above freezing, so ice is not a concern, but wet roads, reduced visibility, and possible ponding become more likely as rainfall accumulates.

Key Factors
- 01 Rain chances increase from scattered showers in the morning to widespread rain from about 10 AM through late evening, with hourly precipitation chances mostly 76% to 92%.
- 02 Forecast rainfall totals are significant: about 0.5 to 0.75 inches during the day and another 1 to 2 inches possible tonight, which can lead to standing water on roads.
- 03 Temperatures remain in the low-to-upper 40s, so frozen precipitation is not expected, but roads will stay cold, wet, and slick.
- 04 East to southeast winds around 12 to 13 mph with gusts up to 23 mph add some handling difficulty, especially on exposed roads.
- 05 No active weather alerts are listed, but visibility data is not provided, which adds some uncertainty about how poor conditions may become in heavier rain.
Recommendation
If you must drive, the relatively better morning window is 8:00 AM to 9:00 AM, when rain chances are lower than later in the day. The least-bad evening window is 7:00 PM to 8:00 PM, but rain is still likely then; avoid nonessential driving from about 10:00 AM through late evening when steady rain is most persistent.
