Impending Floods: Heavy Rainfall Threatens Southeast Wisconsin and Metro Detroit

A flood watch has been issued for southeastern Wisconsin due to the forecasted heavy rain, with one to three inches expected and the possibility of even higher amounts. The dry ground will cause runoff, leading to potential flooding in poor drainage, urban, and low-lying areas. The storm system, tracking directly over the region, will bring rain throughout Monday and into the night, with embedded thunderstorms possible. This storm is different from previous ones as it will pivot around an area of low pressure, bringing rain in from the northeast.
