This Hazardous Weather Outlook is for portions of north central
Illinois...northeast Illinois and northwest Indiana.

.DAY ONE...Today and Tonight.

Weather hazards expected...

Elevated Flooding Risk.
Limited Thunderstorm Risk...with an associated:
Level 1 of 5 Damaging Wind Risk...up to 60 mph.
Limited Non Thunderstorm Wind Risk.

DISCUSSION...

There is a slight chance of thunderstorms this afternoon.

Thunderstorm chances will increase tonight. There is a very low,
around 5 percent chance, of a localized severe weather threat
developing tonight. If severe weather were to occur, localized
damaging winds would be the primary threat.

Of greater concern, areas of heavy rainfall are likely tonight.
Rainfall could be sufficient in localized areas to result in flash
flooding of low lying and poor drainage areas.

Finally, winds could gust to around 40 mph for a time this
morning south of I-80. Also, wind gusts over 40 mph are possible
tonight, especially in the Chicago area and south and east of the
I-57 corridor, including northwest Indiana.

.DAYS TWO THROUGH SEVEN...Tuesday through Sunday.

Tuesday...
Limited Thunderstorm Risk.
Elevated Non Thunderstorm Wind Risk.

.SPOTTER INFORMATION STATEMENT...

Due to the very low threat of severe weather, spotter
activation is not expected tonight. However, any reports of
flooding, damaging winds, and measured heavy rainfall totals
would be greatly appreciated.
