Repeated rains have caused some localized flash flooding and have made other others quite soggy and susceptible to flooding. A flash flood warning is in effect for Redwood, southeastern Yellow Medicine and southern Renville counties until 7:30 a.m.

A flash flood watch for possible flash flood as the rain continues has been issued for much of southern Minnesota.
