The wider storm

Storms moved across the area during the early morning of 8/12. Initial disorganized storms evolved into two distinct, organized multi-cell clusters. One tracking from Bristol ENE through Middlebury, Constantine, Sturgis, Coldwater, Jonesville, HIllsdale and Moscow. The second tracked from Francesville ENE through Winimac, Rochester, Mentone, Warsaw, Syracuse, and Albion. Both were characterized by downbursting cores which tapped into an exceptional strong mid level jet (winds in excess of 70kts) which lead to extensive tree and powerline damage. Multiple homes were also impacted from falling trees.

Began near Winamac (41.0500, -86.6000).
