Key Factors
- 01 Active Flood Watch (Severe) for flash flooding potential; alert notes rainfall rates of 1–2 inches/hour and urban/poor-drainage flooding concerns.
- 02 Thunderstorms expected much of the day and night; daily forecast states some storms could be severe and produce heavy rain.
- 03 High precipitation coverage/probabilities increase through the day: likely from ~11:00 onward, with very high probabilities 18:00–23:00 (91–99%).
- 04 Total rainfall amounts of 1–2 inches possible during the day and another 1–2 inches possible at night, increasing ponding/flash-flood risk.
- 05 Wind gusts up to ~25 mph during the day may add difficulty in heavy rain (especially for high-profile vehicles).

Recommendation
Avoid non-essential driving from 14:00–24:00 (highest flash-flood/heavy thunderstorm risk; Flood Watch notes the main window begins 14:00). Morning safer window: 07:00–10:00 (lower rain chances, before storms become widespread). Evening safer window: none strongly recommended; if you must drive, limit travel to short/local trips after ~23:00 only if conditions are not actively storming, and be prepared to turn around if roads are flooded.
