Episode Narrative Showers and thunderstorms developed across northwest Illinois during the late afternoon and early evening hours on Wednesday June 22nd, and developed southeastward into northern Indiana. Sporadic reports of wind damage were received across northern Indiana as these storms strengthened, with a few reports of tornadoes and significant straight line wind damage. The areas of most prominent damage were noted across southern White county, southern Kosciusko county, and in Huntington county south of Huntington. Many locations received 1 to 2 inches of rain during the course of this storm, with localized amounts in excess of 3 inches with the heavier showers and thunderstorms.
Event Narrative The second of two tornadoes developed in a corn field south of CR 100 S and west of CR 100 E and moved southeast crossing the previous tornado path near CR 200 S and continued southeast crossing CR 200 E south of CR 300 S before dissipating in a wooded area. Extensive damage was noted with this intense EF2 tornado especially in an heavily wooded area east of CR 100 E and south of CR 200 S with evidence of a multiple vortex structure noted in extensive tree and crop damage that occurred here. Additional structural damage to homes, barns and other outbuildings was common along the remaining path of this tornado.
