Stations around here *only* recorded about 2", but that on top of the rain we've had recently and Ann Arbor just having a lot of flood-prone areas has really caused some dramatic flooding in places....driving around just now, a saw a few small creeks that have turned in to straight up white rapids.

 

More to come tomorrow...lower severe chance but PWATS will be big and storm motion slow

ASOS sucks for rain measurements, not too surprised that the sites around the area were lower than the local CoCoRaHS. What sucks is the rain collection sensor went out at some point at KPTK, I would have loved to know how much they got there.

Heard from my mom about a lot of trees down from this same cell...fortunately nothing right on her property but some farther north and the town just to the north got hit hard.

Seems like it goes in spurts. Can go a long time without getting anything good and then there might be a lot of action in rapid succession.

Maybe spoke too soon. A storm popped up to my northwest moving southeast and appears to be in a good spot to move over me.

...COLD AIR FUNNELS POSSIBLE THIS AFTERNOON AND EARLY THIS
EVENING...

TRAINED SPOTTERS AND EMERGENCY MANAGEMENT OFFICIALS HAVE SPOTTED A
FEW COLD AIR FUNNELS THIS AFTERNOON ACROSS CENTRAL INDIANA. TWO
COLD AIR FUNNELS WERE SPOTTED BY RUSH COUNTY EMERGENCY MANAGEMENT
TO THE SOUTHWEST OF RUSHVILLE AT 410 PM WITH A SMALL THUNDERSTORM.

COLD AIR FUNNELS ARE ASSOCIATED WITH SHOWERS AND THUNDERSTORMS
THAT FORM IN DEEP...COLD CORE...LARGE SCALE LOW PRESSURE SYSTEMS.
THESE FUNNEL CLOUDS ARE SMOOTH AND NARROW. THE SHOWERS AND
THUNDERSTORMS THAT THESE FUNNELS FORM FROM ARE NOT PARTICULARLY
TALL OR INTENSE. THESE FUNNEL CLOUDS NORMALLY PRODUCE A FEW
HUNDRED FEET DOWNWARD FROM THE CLOUDS...ROTATE OR SPIN LIKE A
TOP...AND LAST A FEW MINUTES BEFORE DISSIPATING.

IN RARE INSTANCES THESE FUNNELS MAY BRIEFLY TOUCHDOWN AND CAUSE
MINOR WIND DAMAGE. STAY ALERT AND BE PREPARED TO MOVE QUICKLY TO A
SAFE SHELTER IF A FUNNEL CLOUD APPROACHES THE GROUND.
