Torrential rain in south-central Minnesota

Heavy rain that started Saturday evening in south-central Minnesota continued through the night, adding up to more than a half-foot by Sunday morning in some areas and flooding roads.

Flash flood warnings were issued overnight from New Ulm, Mankato and Faribault to the north and west. Among the hardest-hit areas were parts of Sibley and Nicollet counties, where weather spotters reported flooded roads overnight as storm after storm moved across the same area.
