Recommendation
Drive as normal but plan trips around the wet evening. Best morning window: 7:00am-11:00am. Best evening window: 6:00pm-8:00pm is wet but manageable; if possible shift evening driving earlier to 2:00pm-3:00pm. Avoid 5:00pm-8:00pm heavy shower onset and especially after 11:00pm through early morning due to thunderstorms and patchy fog. Use headlights, slow down, and increase following distance on wet pavement.
