Key Factors
- 01 Patchy fog from 7am to 10am reduces visibility, increasing collision risk during the morning commute.
- 02 Rain shower chances increase steadily through the afternoon and evening (15–38% by 10pm), making roads progressively wetter.
- 03 Overnight period (after 9pm) carries up to 50% precipitation probability with possible thunderstorms and up to 0.75–1 inch of rainfall, significantly wetting roads.
- 04 Patchy fog returns after 11pm (23:00), combining with wet roads and low visibility for a notably hazardous late-night driving window.
- 05 Humidity is high throughout the day (69–93%), sustaining slick road surface potential even between showers.
- 06 Wind speeds are light (2–6 mph) and temperatures are well above freezing, so ice and strong crosswinds are not concerns.

Recommendation
Morning window: Drive between 10:30am and 12:00pm — fog has cleared, roads are still relatively dry, and rain shower chances remain below 12%. Evening window: Drive between 5:00pm and 6:30pm — showers are still only a slight chance (18%), winds are calm, and thunderstorms have not yet developed. Avoid driving after 9pm due to increasing heavy rain, possible thunderstorms, and fog returning after 11pm.
