A Flood Advisory has been issued for the Pecatonica River near Shirland in Winnebago County until late Tuesday evening. Current stage as of mid-morning Friday was at 8.4 feet with action stage at 11 feet. Flood stage is 12 feet and the river is forecast to rise to at least 11 feet by Sunday afternoon.
Ice jams that have formed from the warm up the past couple of days will likely continue with the mild weather. There is also a chance for rain this weekend which could cause local rivers to rise.
