Recommendation
Morning: drive after 09:00 EDT once patchy/dense fog lifts, ideally 09:00-11:00 when skies are mostly sunny and precipitation chance is low. Evening: 18:00-20:00 EDT is safer as storm chances decline; if driving during 13:00-16:00, watch for scattered thunderstorms and slow down. In fog before 9am, use low beams, slow down, and leave extra space. Stay hydrated and don't leave anyone in a parked car due to extreme heat.
