Thunderstorm Wind in Johnson County, Indiana
Thunderstorm Wind August 12, 2023 · Johnson County, Indiana
Where the report was made, with tornadoes recorded within 15 miles over the years.
What the National Weather Service wrote
Thunderstorm winds downed a few small to medium sized tree branches, while flattening an approximate one-third acre of soybean crop.
The wider storm
Numerous pulse thunderstorms crossed central Indiana from west to east from pre-dawn to mid-morning hours. Despite several strong storms, a stable boundary layer prevented higher wind gusts from mixing down to the surface while a high freezing level melted larger hail aloft before it could reach the ground. One marginally severe cell did, however, track southeastward across Johnson and Bartholomew Counties around 900 AM EDT.
Began near Hopewell (39.5055, -86.2300).
