Recommendation
Best driving window is early morning to early afternoon, roughly 7am-3pm, when roads are dry and winds are light. If driving in the evening, try to complete travel before 4pm; if travel after 4pm is unavoidable, expect scattered thunderstorms through midnight, so reduce speed, increase following distance, and watch for ponding water and lightning.
