Hoosier

Happened to me too. The flooding sounds pretty bad to my south/west.

Pretty good storm here now. Quality wind and hail.

Tornado warning now for that storm southwest of South Bend.

Cell about to come onshore in Laporte county has a little rotation.

These are the kind of things I used to read about old time tornadoes. Love hearing these personal details.

Check out that office in northwestern CA.

IWX has the path map up as well as other stuff https://www.weather.gov/iwx/SouthBendTornado_6-23-2019 Only moved 2 miles in 10 minutes. That is slow anywhere but especially slow for this part of the country.

Funny how the caption says possible tornado. Ya think? Just another reminder that occasionally you can get something like this on days which really aren't synoptically evident.

Was driving by a local outdoor fest earlier when the heavens opened up. I mean torrential, blinding rain. There were some tents off in the distance but there was a row of porta potties that was much closer to where some folks were. I was wondering if any of them was going to opt for a porta potty to take cover instead of making a lengthy run to a tent. Wasn't able to see what happened since I was just driving by. If I were one of them, I probably would've settled for a porta potty lol. Always have a plan B.

I liked the late sunsets when I was in LAF.

ENH extended southeastward.

Whether or not it happens on the 06z outlook, I think there's a fairly decent chance that tomorrow ends up being an ENH risk around IA/MO/IL.

I haven't checked but anecdotally it seems like it's been cloudier than average for a while.

Well, good news is that can't trend much worse.

I think it's an office by office thing or even just comes down to who did the survey/typed up the summary. I have seen verbose descriptions for EF0/EF1 tornadoes but sometimes not. I think it's more important that they were accurate (or at least as accurate as possible) with the path length, intensity, etc.

8 tornadoes so far in IN (5 in IND, 3 in ILN). Here's an interesting tidbit... that is more tornadoes on June 15, 2019 than occurred on all June 15ths from 1950-2018 combined.

IND tweeted that they found a couple of EF2s... one east of Bloomfield and another near Ellettsville.

Based on the damage pics I have seen and radar data, I am confident that the tornado around Ellettsville is EF2+.

Woman tells how he survived tornado by hanging onto tree near Ellettsville, Indiana Nicole Rood tells how she survived a tornado by holding onto the door handle of a house as she was lifted off the ground in the 6400 block of West Cowden Rd., Saturday, June 16, 2019 near Ellettsville, Ind. Rood's boyfriend Brett Cantrell survived by hanging onto a tree across the road. The couple were in their car when the storm stuck, and exited their car to find a safe place. The tornado destroyed several homes, tore up trees, and left dangerous live power lines scattered around the area. https://www.gettyimages.com/detail/video/nicole-rood-tells-how-she-survived-a-tornado-by-holding-news-footage/1156231248?adppopup=true

Tornado warning south of Peoria.

So let's say that happens. How rare would it be?

Not saying we will get a redux but the 8/24/2016 tornado fest occurred with a remnant MCV. Just shows what they are capable of in the more extreme outcomes.

5% tornado probs in the OH Valley today.

The average number of 82+ days by now is about 10 days. Rough and dirty estimate... could be off by a day or so. In any case, definitely running behind the average for those days.
