Dennis Headed This Way

As you have probably heard, hurricane Dennis has made landfall on the Florida panhandle. And that's great news!

For us, not Floridians.

You see, Dennis will weaken greatly and move north, eventually bringing much needed rain to drought-stricken Illinois. Look for the precipitation to be here by late tomorrow night and continue into Tuesday.

UPDATE: Just saw (at 10:00 pm) a story on WAND-TV in Decatur saying we may be in for a lot of rain from Dennis which could cause some flooding problems as it hits the hard dry ground.

UPDATE 2: Just saw on MSNBC that Southern Illinois could get SIX INCHES of rain from Dennis.
