Strong to severe storms moved across Central Indiana late on June 21 and into June 22, bringing damaging winds and heavy rain.
Above is a surface map from 5:00 AM EDT June 22.
The heavy rains caused a couple of dams to fail in Hendricks County. This caused flooding along White Lick Creek in Hendricks and Morgan Counties.
Above is a hydrograph that shows the stage (height) of the creek at Mooresville. The creek there peaked at a Moderate Flood stage of 20.81 feet during the evening of June 22.
Above is a picture of one of the breached dams. (Click to Enlarge)
