Some areas of northwestern Wisconsin saw between 5 and 7 inches of rain after storms rolled through Tuesday, flooding several roads. Another round of storms in central and southeastern Wisconsin could also bring flooding and damaging winds Wednesday afternoon into the night.

The National Weather Service Office in Duluth said eastern Douglas and southwestern Bayfield counties saw the heaviest rainfall Tuesday, according to meteorologist Cory Rothstein.

“We were seeing rainfall rates in excess of 2 inches an hour in spots,” Rothstein said.

The town of Gordon reported 5.2 inches of rain, and about 6.5 inches fell about 12 miles northwest of Cable. The storms prompted localized flooding in Superior, as well as water over county roads in Burnett and Washburn counties. Water also covered campsites in the Washburn area of Bayfield County.

Rothstein said on Wednesday morning that reports were still filtering in.

“Just occasional road washouts here and there,” he said. “We haven’t heard of anything more significant yet.”

The storms also brought tree damage and high winds with a gust of 52 miles per hour recorded just west of Ashland. Downed trees were reported in the Spooner area and near the border of Washburn and Sawyer counties where a tree caught fire after falling on a power line.

Xcel Energy’s website shows about 200 customers were without power Wednesday morning, primarily in Vilas County.

Up to a half-inch of rain is expected in northern Wisconsin today. In central and northeastern Wisconsin, the National Weather Service has issued a flood watch for this afternoon and evening.

About 2 to 3 inches of rain is expected, but amounts could be higher in some local areas. The region could see flash flooding of rivers, streams and low-lying areas.

Severe thunderstorms might also cause heavy rainfall and damaging winds in southeastern Wisconsin, prompting the cancelation of the Milwaukee Night Market. The market gathering, which draws up to 100,000 people on four nights each summer, has been rescheduled to Oct. 1.
