Key Factors
- 01 Extreme Heat Warning with heat index values up to 105F raises risk of vehicle overheating and driver heat stress
- 02 Isolated showers and thunderstorms after 1pm (precip chance ~24%) can cause sudden downpours, reduced visibility, and slick roads
- 03 Peak afternoon temperatures reach 95-96F, stressing vehicles and passengers
- 04 Winds are light (7-9 mph), so crosswind risk is minimal
- 05 Air Quality Alert (code orange) affects sensitive groups but has limited driving impact
- 06 No fog, ice, or freezing conditions reported

Recommendation
Safest driving is in the morning between 7:00 AM and 11:00 AM before peak heat and before storms develop. In the evening, aim for after 9:00 PM as storm chances taper and temperatures ease. Avoid the 1:00 PM to 8:00 PM window when isolated thunderstorms and peak heat coincide; carry water, ensure your cooling system is functioning, and never leave children or pets in the vehicle.
