...THE FLASH FLOOD WARNING REMAINS IN EFFECT UNTIL 830 AM CDT FOR
EAST CENTRAL WILL AND SOUTHEASTERN COOK COUNTIES...
At 336 AM CDT, Automated rain gauges indicated storm total rainfall
of four to five inches had occurred in a few areas of Richton Park,
Steger, and Crete. Flash flooding is already occurring across the
