Apex of bow with the first line is targeting Brown County, Columbus, and Seymour areas.

IND issued a t-storm warning that ends at your back door. Looks like there could be some strong winds rolling through Indy that looks to run right up Pendleton Pike.

"Gilbert Sebenste (via spotternetwork.org) @ 19:43 UTC -- (S) Funnel -- -- Spotter is 1 miles SSW of DE KALB, IL (DeKalb county) [41.917/-88.762] -- Funnel cloud begin at 2:35 PM, starting to dissipate at 2:43 PM. I am looking at it 1 mile west-northwest of this location, on the underside of a towering cumulus cloud. Came halfway to the ground, before gradually lifting. Moving almost due north. Rope-shaped funnel with a pointed end; no debris on the ground noted; likely a landspout. Funnel has just lifted at 2:45 PM."

SPC has not been cancelling the watch in IN behind the line. They might be thinking the storms in S IL/MO will strengthen as they enter the western part of the watch area. Glancing at the vis satellite shows clearing behind this initial MCS.

You're probably right about the reason that it's not being cancelled, but I believe that it's up to the local NWS office to cancel the Watch, although they may consult with SPC.

Interesting, I always thought it was the other way around with the SPC consulting with the NWS office but ultimately having the final call. It makes more sense that the NWS office would cancel it

This.    There is sporadic sunshine in southern IL between the line in IN and the line presently crossing the MS river near Cape Girardeau.  KFVS tv is live for that region.

May have been a microburst just se of Fortville.  I did see a couple trees down and numerous large branches.  Amazing what a mile or two difference can make.  Yes, the watch may be cancelled for most of IN now, but I am still suspicious of a possible round two. Still in slight svr on latest day one convective outlook.  Clearing skies to my western horizon and in IL might allow just enough recovery to pop some additional storms.  500 mid level helicity in southern IL with some good shear.  Will have to wait and see what happens later this evening if anything.

From the latest SPC meso discussion, perfect timing, and a case where the local NWS re-instituted the watch perhaps? 
 DISCUSSION...The intensity of convection across WW 433 has decreased
   over the last 30-60 minutes in some area from western TN into
   eastern AR. Other areas, mainly western KY/southern IL and portions
   of southern AR, have increased in intensity. In the short term, WFOs
   PAH, MEG and LZK have addressed the continued strong wind threat
   will local aerial extensions as needed....
Further north, across western KY/southern IL, the line has been
   intensifying and surging eastward. This is likely being driven by
   the expansive cold pool across AR/MO as well as stronger deep flow
   in the vicinity of stronger forcing occurring with a weak shortwave
   impulse migrating across the mid-MS Valley region. This portion of
   the line may continue to produce damaging wind gusts and PAH has
   addressed this by expanding WW 433. A line of storms moved across
   parts of western/central KY early today, but recent observations
   show conditions have likely recovered somewhat across western
   portions of WFO LMK. This may require an additional watch later this
   evening depending on trends as the line approaches this previously
   disturbed airmass.

Somehow all of us missed a big tornado that touched down in the South Bend / Mishawaka area this evening.  Lead story on WTHR from Indpls and of course the local South Bend stations.  Northern IN NWS will do the survey tomorrow.   But check out some you tube videos.    Amazing.   WTHR.com has some good photos and video.  I remember seeing the warning for rotation but didn't think much of it.   I have seen photos of a rope tornado and also a stovepipe.  Much more info to come tomorrow.  Hit near U.S. 20 bypass and Ironwood/Ireland road area on north.

I saw it happening but was too busy to post anything about it at the time. NWS didn't put out a warning until spotters reported a funnel cloud. It was right on the warm front.
