Moderate to heavy rainfall is occurring in central Illinois and southeast Iowa as of this writing, and indications are that this rain will soon be in the Stateline. Indications are that 1.5 to 2" of rain will fall across much of the area before all is said and done late Wednesday night and Thursday morning.
In addition to the rain causing ponding on the roadways tomorrow morning, motorists will want to keep an eye out for fog. Fog is already forming around Rochelle and DeKalb this evening, and will quickly spread northward tonight as rain continues to saturate the low levels of the atmosphere. Fog will be a problem through early afternoon tomorrow, and will probably thin-out later in the day as southerly winds and a warm frontal passage help temperatures separate from the dewpoint. Rain, however, will continue into the evening making travel a little slower than normal.
