"THUNDERSTORMS WILL PRODUCE HEAVY RAINFALL THIS AFTERNOON AND
TONIGHT. WIDESPREAD RAINFALL OF 2 TO 3 INCHES IS LIKELY NORTH OF
A LINE FROM SUBLETTE ILLINOIS TO DUNNS BRIDGE INDIANA. THIS
INCLUDES THE ROCKFORD AND CHICAGO METRO AREAS AS WELL AS THE
SUBURBS OF THESE CITIES. LOCALLY HIGHER AMOUNTS OF 4 TO 5 INCHES
ARE POSSIBLE ACROSS THE WATCH AREA. THERE IS THE POTENTIAL FOR
VERY HIGH RAINFALL RATES IN SOME OF THE STRONGER STORMS. THE
HEAVY RAIN WILL FALL OVER HIGHLY URBANIZED AREAS OF ROCKFORD AND
CHICAGO."
Ride safely.
Other reports anticipate baseball sized hail and 80 mph winds. I am not riding as I am a wimp.... and I don't trust the folks in cars either...
Current radar is looking pretty good. However, you never know when the storms will boil up. Almost looks like most of this is well North?
thanks "thunder" for the pre-thunder warning....

Where are you seeing 80mph winds?! Weather Channel is forecasting 5-10mph until midnight and then 15-20 after that.
