* PERIODS OF SHOWERS AND THUNDERSTORMS ARE EXPECTED TO DEVELOP BY
EARLY THIS EVENING AND INCREASE IN COVERAGE AND INTENSITY DURING
THE EVENING ACROSS NORTHERN ILLINOIS AND NORTHWEST INDIANA.
THESE THUNDERSTORMS WILL BE CAPABLE OF PRODUCING RAINFALL RATES
IN EXCESS OF 1 TO 2 INCHES PER HOUR...AND GIVEN THE POTENTIAL
FOR STORMS TO TRAIN OVER THE SAME AREAS...THE THREAT OF RENEWED
FLASH FLOODING IS INCREASING. THUNDERSTORMS PRODUCING VERY HEAVY
RAINFALL WILL BE POSSIBLE THROUGH THURSDAY MORNING.
* TOTAL RAINFALL AMOUNTS OF 1 TO 4 INCHES WITH ISOLATED HIGHER
AMOUNTS UP TO 5 INCHES POSSIBLE.
* DUE TO RECENT BOUTS OF RAINFALL OVER THE PAST WEEK TO TEN
DAYS...THE GROUND IS NEARLY SATURATED IN MANY PLACES AND
ADDITIONAL RAIN COULD VERY WELL LEAD TO IMMEDIATE RUNOFF AND
RAPID FLOODING...AS WELL AS QUICK STREAM AND CREEK RISES.
FLOODING OF SOME ROADWAYS MAY OCCUR.
PRECAUTIONARY/PREPAREDNESS ACTIONS...
A FLASH FLOOD WATCH MEANS THAT CONDITIONS MAY DEVELOP THAT LEAD
TO FLASH FLOODING. FLASH FLOODING IS A VERY DANGEROUS SITUATION.
YOU SHOULD MONITOR LATER FORECASTS AND BE PREPARED TO TAKE ACTION
SHOULD FLASH FLOOD WARNINGS BE ISSUED.
