The National Weather Service in Lincoln reports  clusters of thunderstorms producing prolific lightning and heavy downpours will continue to track eastward across central and southeast Illinois through 2pm. 

The Weather Service says while the overall severe weather risk will remain low, excessive rainfall rates within stronger storms will lead to scattered flash flooding. There have been reports of 3 to 5 inches of rain from some of the cells. Motorists are advised to drive with caution and to avoid flooded roadways. We remind you to Turn Around and Don't Drown!
