More than 111 people have died across six counties after flash flooding from heavy rain began affecting the state last week.

Scattered showers and storms are moving through Chicagoland this evening and will continue tonight. Heavy downpours, gusty winds, and hail are the primary concerns.

A flash flood is a rapid rise of water along a stream or in a low-lying urban area, the National Weather Service said. Flash flooding can result from slow-moving thunderstorms, from numerous thunderstorms that develop repeatedly over the same area, or from heavy rains associated with tropical cyclones.

A New Mexico mountain village is preparing for another round of monsoon rains as it tries to dig out from historic flooding that killed a man and two children.
