The wider storm

On August 10th, an intense derecho brought severe to extreme winds to much of the Midwest with winds estimated as high as 130 to 140 mph in Iowa. As the derecho neared Indiana, the storms were not quite as intense, but did produce measured winds up to 70 mph and caused significant tree damage and power outages to the local area. Over 100,000 people were without power at one point with power outages lasting several days across portions of the state.

Began near Hoosier (39.0900, -87.1600).
