Recommendation
Prefer 7–9 AM EDT (79–82°F), or 9–11 PM EDT (93–90°F) for relatively cooler travel today; evening conditions remain hot. Avoid discretionary driving from 2–7 PM, especially without working air conditioning. Carry water, use air conditioning, and stop somewhere cool if you feel unwell. Never leave children or pets in an unattended vehicle.
