NWS Indianapolis has confirmed that a very brief EF0 tornado touched down in Rush county on Friday. Survey information is posted below.
The line of severe thunderstorms took on a bowed structure as it entered
northwest Rush County on Friday evening. Numerous areas of severe,
straight-line wind damage were observed near the Arlington area.
However, one homestead east of County Road 700 West on County Road 300
North did exhibit signs of damage that appeared tornadic. Based on the
storm survey coupled with radar data...it has been determined that the
damage at this homestead was consistent with an EF-0 tornado, with winds
of approximately 85 mph. This tornado occurred at
approximately 9:32 PM EST and was very short-lived...on the ground for
less than a tenth of a mile and less than a minute. A few trees were
downed...with one blown through the back side of a tin shed. Also, the
roof was removed from an outbuilding on the premises.
