Key Factors
- 01 Flood Watch in effect from noon through late tonight for flash flooding potential
- 02 High probability of precipitation (50-85%) from ~9am to 8pm with peak thunderstorm activity and 85% chance between 2pm-5pm
- 03 Heavy rainfall rates up to 1-3 inches per hour possible in strongest storms, reducing visibility and increasing hydroplaning risk
- 04 Patchy fog possible overnight between 1am-5am
- 05 Winds are light (2-9 mph) so wind is not a significant hazard

Recommendation
If possible, drive early morning between 7am-8am before storms develop, or in the late evening after 9pm when precipitation chances drop to around 30%. Avoid driving between 2pm-5pm when thunderstorm and heavy rain probability peaks at 85%. Watch for standing water and poor drainage flooding in urban areas throughout the day.
