Key Factors
- 01 No active alerts and temperatures well above freezing (no ice risk).
- 02 Light winds (2–3 mph) — low wind hazard for vehicles.
- 03 Probability of precipitation rises in the afternoon (20–28%) with scattered showers and thunderstorms from mid/late afternoon into the evening, and a higher chance overnight (~58%).
- 04 Thunderstorms can cause heavy rain, sudden visibility reductions, and slick roads—greatest risk from about 4:00 PM through late evening.
- 05 Visibility values are not provided in the input, so localized visibility impacts (heavy rain/fog) are uncertain.

Recommendation
Morning: safer to drive between 7:00–10:00 AM — low precipitation probability and light winds. Evening: if possible, avoid driving between 8:00–10:00 PM when showers/thunderstorms are most likely; prefer driving earlier evening around 5:00–6:00 PM when storm chances are lower. If you must drive during thunderstorms, allow extra time, reduce speed, and increase following distance.
