Chicago is sitting on a tight gradient for accumulated precipitation, but higher amounts are expected to the south and east of the city, Scott said.
Rain showers dumped 2 to 4 inches of rain in the areas of Blue Island, Harvey, Hammond and East Chicago on Tuesday evening, prompting a Flash Flood Warning for Cook County and Lake County, Indiana. That warning has since expired
Showers started popping up around Chicago by 6 p.m., but the rain picked up significantly on Chicago's Far South Side around 9 p.m.

Earlier Tuesday, a street in the area of 130th and Stony Island became swallowed with floodwater. As of 10 p.m., most of the water had receded.
Video from near Route 41 in Whiting, Indiana shows barricades up, indicating that roads had closed from the high water. Cars were also seen driving through other flooded streets Tuesday night.
And video from Halsted near 129th in Riverdale shows the entrance of the Joe Louis Golf Course was blocked by floodwater at one point. A PACE bus seemed to have stalled nearby and had to be towed away.
Meanwhile, some streets near the Chicago Ford Assembly Plant on 130th were partially flooded.
In some parts, traffic was reduced to one lane as drivers were making their way to their destinations.
Also nearby, one woman who lives on 127th and Saginaw shared video and photos of the minor flooding in her backyard.
Thankfully, ABC7 has not received reports of any injuries or major damage.
Scott said the heaviest precipitation should happen late Tuesday night and early Wednesday morning in areas south and east of the city. Some areas could see 2 to 4 inches of rain during that time frame.

The storm made landfall in Texas as a Category 1 hurricane Monday morning. At least six people have been killed by fallen trees or by drowning and more than 2 million customers are without power across Texas due to torrential rain and powerful winds.
