9:15pm UPDATE:
Severe Thunderstorm Warning will expire at 9:30pm for DeKalb and Lee Counties. Otherwise, our severe threat is over as the Severe Thunderstorm Watch has already begun being canceled in our western and northern counties. We still have a few hours left of moderate to heavy rainfall and lightning, but the severe weather threat is over. The rain that fell was very heavy, leading to many areas seeing flooding concerns.
In fact, some locations have reported 2-4" of rain. That led to several reports of standing water, high water, and even an intersection being washed out in Lena. Per the Rockford Scanner, a water rescue occurred in Belvidere. Remember to never approach an area that you think is flooded as it does not take much water to cause a vehicle to stall out!

from any thunderstorms that move in will include damaging winds (70-80mph wind gusts already recorded in Iowa), large hail, isolated tornadoes, and very heavy rainfall.
The storms will likely arrive after 5pm near Dubuque, Iowa and closer to 7pm in Rockford and along the I-39 corridor. They are expected to maintain their intensity as they move east towards the Stateline. Winds of 70-80mph have already been reported near Hazleton, Iowa. The storms will likely continue to develop further south in Iowa, meaning everyone in the northern Illinois will likely get in on strong to severe thunderstorms.
