Overview

Thunderstorms developed in warm and unstable air well ahead of an approaching cold front. These storms produced damaging winds and hail up to golf ball size.

Tornadoes

Note: Survey teams determined that the damage in Monroe, Brown, and Bartholomew Counties was caused by straight line winds of 65-85 mph.
