Key Factors

01 Flash Flood Warning (Severe) indicates ongoing/expected flash flooding and roadway flooding that may take time to recede; effective until 8:00 AM EDT.
02 Flood Watch (Severe) continues through 11:00 PM EDT; alerts note potential rainfall rates of 1–3 inches/hour and localized totals 3–5 inches, increasing risk of rapid flooding.
03 Hourly forecast shows thunderstorms and showers likely/heavier in the morning (7–11 AM with 69–94% precip chances) and again mid-afternoon (2–5 PM with ~62–63% precip chances).
04 Daily forecast calls for 1–2 inches of additional rainfall possible today (high overall precip chance ~90%).
05 Visibility and road condition specifics (e.g., water depth, exact flooded areas) are not provided, adding uncertainty but not reducing the flood risk signaled by warnings.

Recommendation

Avoid driving 6:20–8:00 AM EDT (Flash Flood Warning window) and be prepared for lingering flooded roads shortly after. If you must drive, a relatively safer morning window is 11:30 AM–1:30 PM EDT (lower thunderstorm chances than earlier/later), but remain alert for new storms. Avoid 2:00–5:00 PM EDT if possible (storms likely again). A safer evening window is 7:30–10:00 PM EDT (precip chances drop to near 0–5% and skies trend partly cloudy), but continue to watch for any renewed flood warnings and do not drive through standing water.
