Key Factors
- 01 No active weather alerts, but rain becomes likely after ~3 PM (hourly precipitation chances rise from 31% at 3 PM to 64–85% from 5–10 PM).
- 02 Thunderstorms are expected late evening: showers and thunderstorms between 11 PM and midnight (high lightning/visibility risk).
- 03 Patchy fog is forecast overnight after midnight along with continued showers/thunderstorms (visibility risk; no visibility values provided).
- 04 Gusts up to ~22 mph are possible (not extreme, but can add difficulty during heavy rain).
- 05 Rainfall amounts could reach 0.5–0.75 inches overnight, increasing risk of pooling water/hydroplaning (exact timing/intensity not provided).

Recommendation
Morning safer window: 7:00–11:00 AM (mostly/partly sunny to mostly cloudy, very low precip chances). Evening safer window (if you must drive): 6:00–9:00 PM, but expect wet roads and allow extra distance; avoid 11:00 PM–6:00 AM due to thunderstorms (11 PM–12 AM) and patchy fog/continued storms after midnight.
