No Break From The Rain

Wednesday was a dry day across the Stateline, but don't get used to it. More storms are right around the corner.

Thursday will be our next chance for showers and storms. Storm chances will be slight in the morning, but increasing throughout the day with our best chance for stormy weather arriving Thursday night. Friday will see more scattered showers and storms with the heaviest rain holding off until overnight Friday and into Saturday. Rain chances will drop significantly for Sunday with a few more storms possible on Labor Day.

While soggy weather could put a damper on week 1 of the high school football season and any other plans you have this upcoming holiday weekend, it will also bring rain that we don't necessarily need. As of Wednesday, Rockford was an inch and half above normal for August rainfall. If the models hold, another 1"-1.5" of rain could be possible through Monday. -BA
