7 inches is a lot to take in that quickly. Hopefully the residents stay safe out there. Flash flooding is very dangerous and people need to take it serious and take precautions.

According to the local news, there are some places getting near 8 inches now.

It does seem to be slowing down though.

It seems to be going through periods of heavy rain and then lightning up. Right now it doesnt look to bad, but I know how quickly things could change.

I'm mostly concerned for the people who live next to rivers. Whole houses were swept away a decade ago.

You should flip on channel 4, they've got one of their anchors out in a truck and she said she's seen dozens of cars stranded and multiple roads shut down due to flooding.

Edti: MMSD now has a rain gauge reading over 10 inches.

Can you please send that rain over here? Though our ground is too dry so start light so we can get a baseline level of moisture in the soil so it can better absorb a good downpour instead of it just all being runoff.

Flash flooding hit Milwaukee and Waukesha counties as heavy rain pounded the area, forcing the Wisconsin State Fair to close early and disrupting events across the region Saturday.
The heavy rain caused the Root River to overflow along Cleveland Avenue, creating dangerous conditions for motorists and pedestrians. Photos and videos sent to TMJ4 from the state fairgrounds showed some vehicles nearly fully submerged and attendees wading through deep water.

Stuff like this is just going to get more common as time goes on. Global warming makes rain events more concentrated instead of more evenly spread out.

Just went out for a bit and there are a good amount of abandoned cars on the road. You can't even tell some of those roads were flooded. Shit is nuts.

Also, there's an annoying number of people that don't know a flashing red or depowered traffic section is a 4 way stop sign.

A couple of friends and family were affected by the flooding.

This morning I drove east from Madison to Milwaukee to check on my parent's house and at first it was okay, but then on my way back the eastbound part of the interstate was suddenly backed up.

If you won't I'll insinuate. I feel bad for them, but I also have a twisted humor.

I've always maintained that a huge number of people who have a drivers licence should never have gotten one.

There's still more predicted tonight, and then rain tomorrow and Tuesday too.
