What the National Weather Service wrote
Eyewitness reports and an NWS Storm Survey confirmed a tornado started just east of Engle Lake, knocking down trees in a residential area. As it continued north, some of the strongest damage was sustained to a house, which had some of its roofing ripped off and a wall pushed in. Other houses and farm buildings sustained roof damage and more trees were knocked down or snapped as it continued on crossing highway 6. One large chicken building had its entire outer shell removed. It came to an end just before the Noble/Lagrange county line. Maximum sustained winds were estimated at around 105 mph.

Widespread stratiform rain in the morning gave way to decreasing clouds which permitted scattered showers to develop. Three tornadoes occurred in Indiana. One tornado occurred in Michigan.
