Recommendation
Morning slot: Drive between 7:00 AM and 11:00 AM EDT when skies are sunny to mostly sunny with minimal precipitation chance (under 15%). Evening slot: If you must drive in the evening, wait until after 10:00 PM EDT when thunderstorm probability drops below 30%, but be cautious of standing water on roads from earlier heavy rain. Avoid driving between noon and 8:00 PM EDT when storm activity and flood risk peak.
