The wider storm

On the morning of March 11, 2026, an unseasonably warm and moist airmass with strong deep-layer shear produced a severe weather outbreak. A quasi-linear convective system (QLCS) pushed across central Indiana producing widespread damaging wind gusts with significant tree damage and some structural damage. There were also a few reports of flooded roads across portions of south-central Indiana.

Began near Union City (40.2000, -84.8300).
