Strong Winds & Fast Moving Overnight Storms

Today is already seeing strong winds and I encountered several places during in the country where dust blowing over the road was causing poor visibility. Winds will continue to increase over the afternoon.

The larger concern will be strong overnight storms that will move very fast across Indiana ahead of the cold front. Overnight temperatures will remain in the lower 70's which will continue to provide energy for storms. These storms will likely be linear in nature and move at remarkable speed of 50+ MPH.

It is the fast approach and darkness and potential for people to be asleep which could make this a dangerous situation. Moderate sized hail also is a very real possibility. Additional information as it becomes available.
