At first thought you might think that the title of this entry is an exaggeration, but take a closer look at the graphic on the left. This graphic shows the five wettest months of all time in Rockford since records began in 1906. As of 7am this morning we have received 13.15" of rain this month. That puts us less than half an inch behind the all time record, which was set 20 years ago. As you can see in the graphic to the right, that record could fall by this time tomorrow as more heavy rain is in the forecast. It is simply amazing.
Even though the Flash Flood Watch has been lifted in Winnebago, Ogle, Boone, and McHenry counties we are not in the clear just yet. Our flash flooding concerns for the entire Stateline viewing area will remain elevated through Friday night. -ADAM
