Track and detailed damage information will be released once further review of data from Grant County Emergency Management is received. This will be no earlier than the afternoon hours of July 29th.

Just picked up 1.62". My garden said thanks.

IWX obviously isn't bailing due to the south trend, mainly because of their thought that we are still in the game south of 30 with the warm front, as you alluded to earlier. From discussions, I got the idea that they aren't very happy with SPC's demoting us to slight, but of course they won't come out and say it, hence their post.

Wake low?

Got dumped on with .77" in less than half an hour earlier this afternoon. The same line went severe in Ohio.

It's gonna rain.

It's frustrating that I had three tornadoes within a few miles of my house and I couldn't see any of them. All three were embedded in the line that was producing widespread 65-70 MPH straight-line gusts.

Near the intersection of W 100 N and N 800 W, additional tree damage was observed and an outbuilding lost several roof panels. Along W 200 N, a number of trees were damaged at one property. Across the street, a mobile home lost its roof. The tornado appears to have lifted prior to reaching the Yake Subdivision, just south of the Wabash River.

Here, nearly two dozen trees were damaged, including multiple trees snapped at least halfway up their trunks. Tree damage appeared to continue into a tree line off to the northeast. Throughout its nearly 8-mile-long path to the northeast, sporadic instances of tree damage occurred until it approached State Route 5, just northwest of I-69. Here, the tornado caused almost total destruction to a newly built barndominium. Only the eastern wall was left standing with debris lofted at least 100 yards into adjacent fields. Tree damage continued east-northeast of here where at least two tree trunks were snapped. The tornado lifted just east of I-69, along S 200 E. Huntington, IN – 2.5 Miles Northeast Tornado Rating: EF1 Estimated Peak Wind: 95 mph Path Length: 0.65 miles Maximum Width: 25 yards Fatalities: 0 Injuries: 0 Start Date: June 11, 2026 Start Time: 10:44 PM EDT Start Location: 2 NW Bowerstown / Huntington County / IN Start Lat/Lon: 40.9122 / -85.4743 End Date: June 11, 2026 End Time: 10:45 PM EDT End Location: 2 NW Bowerstown / Huntington County / IN End Lat/Lon: 40.9178 / -85.4644 Survey Summary: In an open area north of US 24 and east of State Route 9, an incredibly brief tornado appears to have touched down and impacted a single residence. Here, a two-story home completely lost its roof and debris was deposited into adjacent fields. Hardly any rafters remain and no roof decking is present. Intense dirt and insulation splatter was noted on the east and north side of the home. Additionally, a detached garage to the south-southeast of the home was demolished by the tornado. A property less than 500 yards to the northeast was not impacted, suggesting the tornado quickly lifted beyond 600 N.

That dude was embedded within the line with 70-75 MPH straight line winds around it. Substantial damage caused by falling trees in Huntington, as well as the towns of Andrews, Roanoke, and Wabash, which are all located along US 24, basically the path that the radar indicated tornado took, from the town of Wabash to Ft. Wayne. I couldn't see anything from my house and wasn't going chase blind, but from radio traffic last night, if there was one on the ground, it went just north of town. NWS will be here this afternoon.

Wow! Easy chase lol. Nice grab

You catch smallies from the bank?
