The wider storm

A slow-moving cold front interacted with a warm and moist environment to trigger clusters of thunderstorms across north-central Illinois during the late afternoon and evening of June 6th. Some of the storms produced rainfall of 1 to 3 inches in a short period of time, leading to localized flash flooding. The flooding was primarily focused along and north of an Abingdon to Lacon line.
