The Chicagoland area is preparing for significant rainfall and potential severe storms as a low-pressure system approaches the region.Rain is expected to increase in coverage and intensity late this evening. Some western suburbs may have already accumulated over half an inch of rain on Monday, with the possibility of another 1–2 inches in some areas overnight.Concerns over localized flooding and ponding on roadways are expected to persist from tonight through early Tuesday morning.
m.As a cold front associated with the low-pressure system moves eastward through the region, storms may form along the frontal boundary, posing various hazards, including the possibility of isolated tornadoes.
