Heaviest Rainfall Monday Morning in Nearly Two Weeks

Over an inch of rainfall came down Monday morning for many across northern Illinois, with some locations picking up nearly an inch and a half to two inches! Officially at the Rockford Airport 1.04 inches of rain fell, making it the highest rainfall total since August 11th when 1.82 inches of came down. Most of the rain has ended Monday evening with just a few sprinkles/light showers expected over the next few hours.

A cold front stretching back through the Upper Midwest will move through around Midnight. Showers and thunderstorms associated with the front have been moving into Wisconsin, but there hasn't been much rain development southward into Iowa. I'm still keeping an isolated shower/storm chance overnight, but most will end up dry heading into Tuesday morning. An isolated shower can't completely be ruled out ahead of another cold front Tuesday evening, but most will remain dry.
