Flash Flood Watch

A Flash Flood Watch has been issued for northern Illinois and southern Wisconsin until 7am Friday morning. So far, light to steady rain has been lifting north, rotating around the low pressure system to our southwest. At times today, rain will turn more moderate to heavy with embedded thunderstorms also possible. Rain will move over areas that are already saturated from the heavy rain earlier this week, and rivers are already swollen. So, any additional rain will run off and into already high rivers. Make sure to stay weather aware today and tonight with rain totals still forecast between 1-2", with localized areas potentially getting 3-4".
