clogged with debris, increasing the risk of flooding. This is
especially true in the Chicago metropolitan area.
* ADDITIONAL DETAILS...
- Parts of the Flood Watch area have picked up 3 to 6 inches of
rain in the past 48 hours. As a result, many rivers and
creeks in the watch area are already at bankfull and soils
are saturated. Additional torrential downpours today may lead
to flooding, some of which could be significant particularly
in the Chicago metropolitan area.
