Key Factors
- 01 Thunderstorms are likely 8:00 AM-10:00 AM, which can reduce visibility and make roads slick.
- 02 Rain and thunderstorm chances increase again from about 5:00 PM-8:00 PM, creating a second higher-risk driving period.
- 03 Daily forecast calls for 0.25 to 0.50 inch of rainfall during the day and additional rain at night, increasing wet-road risk.
- 04 Winds are not extreme, but gusts up to 26 mph may add minor handling challenges during heavier showers or storms.
- 05 Temperatures stay well above freezing, so ice or snow is not a concern today.
- 06 No active weather alerts are listed, which lowers the overall hazard somewhat.

Recommendation
Avoid non-essential driving during the highest-risk windows of 8:00 AM-10:00 AM and 5:00 PM-8:00 PM when thunderstorms are most likely. A safer morning slot is 11:00 AM-1:00 PM, and a relatively safer evening slot is 9:00 PM-11:00 PM, though light rain may still be possible then.
