(WBBM NEWSRADIO) -- The city of Chicago and southeast Cook County was under a Flash Flood warning until 10 p.m. Wednesday, the National Weather Service announced.

It's the second wave of major rainfall that has hit the region this week. Sunday, up to 8 inches fell in some areas, causing flash flooding and forcing the Metropolitan Water Reclamation District of Greater Chicago to release stormwater and sewage into Lake Michigan.
