Heavy rain today with an additional 0.5 to 1.5" of rain expected. There is a possibility for training storms to occur in northeast Iowa and far southwest Wisconsin which could cause 2 to 4" of rain to occur in these locations. This rain is falling on top of already saturated soils which increases the potential flooding threat. Rivers are expected to rise with this additional rain.

Storms move in this afternoon and continue through the evening. Large hail will be the main threat for any storm that can become severe with damaging winds as a secondary threat.

Freezing rain builds into north central Wisconsin this evening and continues through the overnight. Ice accumulations are focused in Taylor and northeast Clark Counties. The highest accumulations are in eastern Taylor County where up to 0.3" of ice could occur.

Another round of precipitation - mainly showers and thunderstorms - arrives this afternoon into Saturday. Temperatures over the next 5 days will mainly be in the upper 30s to around 50, around and a bit cooler than normal for early April.
