Several roads were closed across the county due to water flowing over them. 3 water rescues conducted. Total rainfall was around 1.5 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 Burney (39.3132, -85.5962).
