Just saw damage from the stream. Starbucks flattened. What is it with the Indianapolis area lately?

In all seriousness I read an article the other day on research that showed the traditional tornado alley moving east and now situated from AL/TN line northward with a greater frequency of tornadoes in the late summer and fall period to be expected.

Going to be somewhat miraculous if there aren't any fatalities out of this, given the area that it tracked through and the pretty much unanticipated tornado threat today.  On the plus side, without doing a deep dive, it looks like the warnings were issued in timely fashion.
