Key Factors
- 01 Heat Advisory in effect through the day with heat index values up to about 98-100°F, which can affect driver comfort and increase risk if stranded or in a vehicle without reliable cooling.
- 02 Patchy fog is forecast before 8 AM, creating a brief early-morning visibility concern; exact visibility values are not provided.
- 03 Showers and thunderstorms become possible after early afternoon, with chances rising from about 26% at 2 PM to 50% by 7 PM and 55-60% from 8 PM to midnight.
- 04 Some thunderstorms could produce heavy rain, which may reduce visibility and cause ponding on roads.
- 05 Winds are light, generally 1-8 mph, so wind-related driving risk is low.

Recommendation
Safer morning driving window: after fog lifts, roughly 8 AM to 11 AM. Safer evening option: if travel is necessary, aim for 6 PM to 7 PM before thunderstorms become likely, but monitor conditions closely; avoid 8 PM to midnight when showers and thunderstorms are likely and heavy rain is possible.
