(9:38:39 AM) nwsbot: DVN issues SCATTERED THUNDERSTORMS PRODUCING HEAVY RAINFALL for Bureau, Carroll, Jo Daviess, Putnam, Stephenson, Whiteside [IL] till 11:45 AM CDT
A trained spotter reported ponding of water on Highway 20 just east of Freeport this morning. Some of the stronger storms will produce frequent lightning and heavy rainfall. These showers/storms should diminish later this morning.
8:05am Update: A Severe Thunderstorm Watch has been issued just to our north for a few storms that have grown in strength across central Wisconsin. For us, scattered showers will become a little more numerous this morning as they run into an unstable airmass. We may even hear a few claps of thunder. We'll continue to monitor the forecast for the potential of a few more storms later this afternoon.
A few showers moved through southern Wisconsin and northern Illinois early this morning, but there are a few more storms that have formed across southwest Wisconsin and back through west-central Wisconsin. Current trends are being monitored for the potential of a Severe Thunderstorm Watch to be issued later this morning. The showers/storms that moved through earlier were elevated because they moved away from their lifting source. As the sun continues to rise this morning and the current showers/storms move southeast they may become more surface based across northern Illinois which could lead to a few of the storms to produce hail and gusty winds.
