The Stateline has gotten its fair share of the rain thus far in 2013. In fact, officially in Rockford, we've gotten more rain through June 28th than we saw in the entire 2012 year! Granted, last year we were experiencing drought-like conditions. In fact, at one point 95% of Illinois and 51% of Wisconsin was in the "severe" drought category.
