Recommendation
Safer morning driving window: 9 AM–12 PM, when precipitation chances are very low and winds are modest. Safer evening option: if evening travel is necessary, 6–7 PM appears somewhat better than later evening, but use caution; avoid or delay nonessential driving after 8 PM when thunderstorm chances and rainfall risk increase.
