Key Factors
- 01 Patchy dense fog reported before 9AM with visibility as low as a quarter mile, especially before 8AM
- 02 Heat Advisory in effect until 8PM with heat index up to 100F, which can affect driver alertness and vehicle overheating risk
- 03 Afternoon chance of showers and thunderstorms (peak 25% around 2-4PM) could bring brief heavy rain, lightning, and reduced visibility
- 04 Winds remain light to moderate (up to 13 mph) so crosswind risk is minimal
- 05 Overnight patchy fog possible again between 4-5AM on 8/9

Recommendation
Best driving windows are mid-morning from 9AM to 12PM (after fog clears, before storm chances rise) and evening from 6PM to 9PM (after peak thunderstorm risk passes and temperatures start dropping). Use low beams and reduce speed if driving before 9AM due to fog, stay hydrated and avoid prolonged sun exposure during heat advisory hours, and watch for sudden downpours/lightning between 1PM-6PM.
