Montgomery Flood Warning Still in Effect But Fox River Should Be Back Within Its Banks By Sunday

A Flood Warning remains in effect for parts of the Fox River, but the National Weather Service-Chicago says it probably will be lifted by Sunday.

Communities along the Fox, including Montgomery, are still recovering from the April 18 rains that flooded basements, back yards, roads and property along the river.

The Flood Warning continues for the Fox River at Montgomery affecting Kane and Kendall counties. The Fox River at Montgomery is also still at flood levels as of Tuesday, April 30.

"The river will continue to fall to below flood stage by early Sunday morning," according to the Flood Warning.

At Montgomery, the flood stage was 13.3 feet as of 9:15 a.m. Tuesday. Flood stage is 13 feet.

There will be chances of thunderstorms Wednesday night through Thursday night, but at this time, the threat for widespread severe weather appears low, the NWS-C said.
