Just be careful and choose wisely on what you decide. Even if you have to wait longer down there still better than losing your lives or smashing up.
Long drive, 1065 miles, rain all of the way, but we seemed to be driving in a bubble. The horrible rain was always ahead of us, west of us or south. It never stopped raining but mostly light to medium rain. Traffic was lighter than normal, maybe a lot stayed off the roads due to the forecasts.
The app on my phone is pretty darn good, it says rain starting in x lasting xx and it is usually right. Called dark sky.
Also shows the radar around you, the temp, It follows you as you drive change locations etc tells you what is happening right where you are. And gives a good/decent forecast of the next week of weather.
We watch it the entire time we are traveling to give us a idea if we should be finding a hotel.
We had a clear drive out of Florida on Friday, no rain until we hit Georgia, on Saturday Florida was under tornado watch. If we had waited a day we would never have left until Sunday.
We found another way home when we get near Fredericksburg, allows us to totally miss the absolute horrible dead stop traffic near Tysons corner. Adds 1/2 hour to the drive but saves us a hour plus of sitting in non moving traffic.
The driving app, waze, saved us also, coming up on a total closure of i95 due to a accident, warned us that the road was closed ahead, told us to take a exit, drove along i95 pass all the dead stop traffic for 5 miles, then back on 95 to a empty road! It is a little fussy for a app, shuts down now and then. But well worth it. We also run google maps, it sometimes gives a warning about bad traffic coming up. And our older garmin gps, has the traffic indicator but it does not work unless you are in a area they broadcast in.
