Flood Warning Remains in Effect for Southern Wisconsin 
A Flood Warning has been issued for Dane, Green, Jefferson, Lafayette, Rock, and Walworth counties until 6:45 p.m. Tuesday. Also, a Flood Watch, Winter Weather Advisory, and Dense Fog Advisory are in place for portions of southern Wisconsin. 
Several counties have reported flooding in several locations. Many reports are out of Green and Rock counties where several inches of water are over roadways. The Pecatonica River, Rock River, Root River, Turtle Creek and Sugar River are expected to exceed flood stage over the next 24 hours. Minor to moderate flooding is anticipated. 
As the GOP Senate caucus says, 'who needs those stupid wetlands?'
