A flood fatality occurred as the victim was clearing debris from a private pond. After the debris was cleared, a whirlpool formed in the pond and the man was sucked underneath.
Wider weather episode
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.
