Recommendation
Avoid driving during the flash flood warning window (before 8 AM) and during heavy storm periods (roughly 8 AM–11 AM and 2 PM–5 PM). Safer windows: morning after storms taper around 11:00 AM–12:00 PM if roads have drained, and evening 7:00 PM–9:00 PM when precipitation chance drops to 5-20% and skies clear. Never drive through flooded roads—turn around, don't drown.
