This Hazardous Weather Outlook is for portions of north central
Illinois...northwest Illinois...west central Illinois...east
central Iowa...northeast Iowa...southeast Iowa and northeast
Missouri.

.DAY ONE...TONIGHT

More thunderstorms will gradually develop by late evening and
persist into overnight, with the longest duration and training
storms most favored near U.S. Highway 30 through just south of
I-80. The primary concern will be heavy rainfall rates and
training storms causing flash flooding. An isolated damaging wind
threat exists too, mainly along and south of I-80.

.DAYS TWO THROUGH SEVEN...FRIDAY THROUGH WEDNESDAY

Rounds of heavy rain producing storms are expected into the
weekend, mainly at night and into the mornings, though uncertainty
on area and coverage with each successive round. Flash flooding
will remain a concern, especially Friday night into early Saturday
morning if storms move across areas already soaked from previous
bouts of heavy rainfall. Isolated to scattered damaging wind
threats will continue, depending on how organized storms become.

.SPOTTER INFORMATION STATEMENT...

Spotter activation is possible tonight, mainly along and south of
I-80.
