episodeNarrativeA potent cyclone crossed northern Illinois, bringing central Indiana into its warm sector. This allowed very strong vertical wind shear courtesy of the system's strong low-level jet stream to combine with the warm sector's adequate instability, producing several severe thunderstorms. Near the greatest shear and instability, small supercell thunderstorms produced severe straight line winds, with one supercell spawning two EF-1 tornadoes in Hancock County.

eventNarrativeThe second tornado touched down approximately 2 miles east-southeast of Ingalls. This tornado was on the ground for about 2 minutes, and traveled approximately 0.3 miles, with estimated peak winds of 100 mph. The tornado inflicted major damaged to a metal barn, removing the roof and exterior walls. Downwind of the barn, 2x4 beams were driven into the ground at different angles. Several trees were damaged, either being snapped or blown over and uprooted.
