Key Factors
- 01 No active weather alerts. Wind speeds are light (3–8 mph), so wind is not a major hazard.
- 02 Probability of precipitation rises to ~55–60% from early afternoon through early evening with expected rainfall amounts of a quarter to a half inch — risk of reduced visibility, slick roads, and localized ponding/hydroplaning.
- 03 Thunderstorms possible (midday–evening) which can produce brief heavy downpours, gusts and lightning.
- 04 Temperatures are well above freezing so no ice/snow concerns. Visibility values are not provided, so short-term visibility reductions in heavy rain are possible (uncertainty noted).

Recommendation
Safer morning window: 2026-07-09 07:00–09:00 (mostly sunny, PoP 3–9%). Safer evening window: 2026-07-09 21:00–23:00 (PoP falls to ~16–21%). Avoid driving if possible from about 13:00–18:00 (1:00–6:00 PM) when showers and thunderstorms are most likely (PoP ~46–59%) — if travel is necessary then slow down, increase following distance, turn on headlights, and beware of standing water and sudden downpours.
