Excessive thunderstorm rains produced flash flooding and relatively rapid rises on the larger tributaries in west and southwest Wisconsin. There was at least two feet of water over some roadways across southern Clark County and northern Jackson County, along with flash flooding in some of the steeper terrain of Trempealeau County. A car was washed off the road northwest of Tomah (Monroe Co.).
