They say it is the spikes in blood pressure that are the most dangerous, rather than having steady hypertension. Those spikes, caused by stress like your commute, put sudden stress on your heart. So, measuring when you are unstressed can tell you what your bp should be, but measuring when it's high (seeing how much you spike) should be a red alert to learn to control stress better.
Very first thing in the morning. The early hours of the morning are also the most common for heart attacks, as the body gets ready to start the day.

A minute or two after exercise is also a good time to check.

Hope this helps and wishing you all the best.
