What the National Weather Service wrote

Aerial flooding photographs from Hancock County 911 center show flooding at and near Arrowhead golf course including a flooded roadway. Total rainfall ranged from 2.3 to 3.1 inches.

The wider storm

The final round of rain in a stretch of 4 days brought rain amounts of 2-4.5 inches of rain to central Indiana in addition to the 3-5 inches that had fallen. This led to additional widespread flash flooding and exacerbated ongoing creek and river flooding to a point that many main stem rivers ended up reaching major flood stage.

Began near Spring Lake (39.7557, -85.8454).
