Water, water everywhere Heavy rain left part of Monroe Avenue under water Wednesday evening (photo by H. Marc Larson). Scattered showers could continue over the next few days By Leigh Ann Wagner Kroening News-Chronicle Several streets throughout the county were underwater Wednesday as severe thunderstorms ravaged the area for much of the evening. Though no weather-related accidents were reported, local law enforcement agencies were kept busy with calls of stalled vehicles in flooded intersections. Green Bay seemed to be the heaviest hit, with severe flooding near the intersection of Military and Shawano avenues as well as in the downtown areas of Madison Street and Monroe Avenue. "We have several intersections that experience problems during even minor amounts of rain. With this heavy rain, the intersections with flooding problems are numerous," said Green Bay Police Lt. Jude Trimberger. "We have barricades put up in multiple areas to divert traffic, but they'll come down as soon as it ends. The good news is this is a temporary situation, and it will get better." While the Brown County Sheriff's Department Communications Center handled numerous calls for street flooding from De Pere and Allouez to Green Bay's East Side, the Ashwaubenon Public Safety Department reported only minor problems with a stretch of Oneida Street. Despite standing water as much as 3 feet deep in some areas, the Green Bay Metropolitan Sewerage District reported no problems. As of 10 p.m., the district hadn't received any complaints of backups. Brown County wasn't the only area experiencing severe flooding. Six counties in Northeast Wisconsin were under flash-flood warnings. Appleton, Menasha, Seymour, Black Creek and Shiocton received 3-6 inches of rain, with as much as 6 more inches expected before the end of the night. WLUK-TV Channel 11 meteorologist John Chandik said the wet weather and its resulting problems could continue. "As bad as the flooding is now, the worst-case scenario is that we can expect scattered showers over the next few days," he said.
