What the National Weather Service wrote

Thunderstorm winds produced damage in Jennings County.

The wider storm

A highly unstable air mass and 30 kts of effective shear combined with an old outflow boundary crossing central Indiana to produce two rather disorganized thunderstorm clusters. The first cluster of mainly sub-severe storms included a rouge cell that impacted Vigo County. The second cluster, which bowed out while crossing the Seymour area produced damaging winds in Jennings County.

Began near Vernon (38.9900, -85.5800).
