Key Factors
- 01 Special Weather Statement for fog: some areas may have dense fog with visibility of a quarter mile or less; hourly forecast shows patchy fog 7-9am
- 02 Chance of showers and thunderstorms from about 1pm through 11pm (peak 25% around 2-5pm) could bring sudden heavy rain, reduced visibility and gusty winds
- 03 Heat Advisory until 8pm with heat index up to 98-100F; risk of vehicle overheating and driver fatigue, so carry water and avoid leaving people or pets in parked cars
- 04 Winds are light to moderate (3-13 mph), with no gust data given, so crosswinds are not a major concern
- 05 Patchy fog may return between 4am and 5am on Aug 9, outside today's main window; no visibility values are provided, so fog severity is uncertain

Recommendation
Safer morning window: 9:30am-12:30pm after the fog lifts and before the thunderstorm chances rise. Safer evening window: 8:00pm-10:00pm when the heat advisory has ended and storm chances are declining (about 22% to 17%), though isolated showers remain possible. If fog is encountered, slow down, use low beams and keep extra distance. If a thunderstorm develops, slow down or pull off the road until heavy rain passes.
