Recommendation
Driving is generally fine today with normal caution. Best morning window: 8:00 AM-12:00 PM (fog gone, dry, sunny). Best evening window: 5:00-7:00 PM before storm chances peak; if possible avoid 8:00 PM-midnight when thunderstorms with heavy rain are likely. Use low-beam headlights and slow down in early-morning fog, keep the vehicle cool and carry water given the heat advisory.
