(WAND) - Excessive rainfall is expected to wrap up the workweek across central Illinois.

Showers and thunderstorms will continue to build starting midmorning and linger throughout your Saturday.
 
While a chance for some hail exists Friday, the opportunity remains less than 10 percent and isolated to the I-70 corridor.
 
The widespread issue remains the heavy rainfall that many central Illinoisans can expect. 
 
Nearly 2.5" is forecasted for communities south of I-72 leading to flooding concerns.
 
The ground remains saturated from recent storms and therefore leaves nowhere for incoming rain to runoff to.
 
This will lead to sitting water and potentially some flooded roadways.
 
Avoid flooded roadways at all costs and find an alternative route.
