Wow.
 
And, Peru got an F-3 tornado in on the 30th, too!
 
In Huntington, about 35 miles east of Peru, I had a gust of 30 at 1:01 PM (Eastern Standerd, Indiana doesn't do Dlight savings time, so Peru's gust was at 1245pm Indiana time), not much to brag about, huh? I also got 0.37 inches of rain, and lots of lightning.
 
My area had a line of storms a little weaker yesterday afternoon, as well: I recived 1.16 inches of rain in about 45 minutes with yesterdays storms.
 
Total rain for the last five days is 3.64 inches, 520% of normal for this the time frame!

86 degrees. Clear sky.

Tornado Safety Fact:
Like hurricanes, the winds in tornadoes can turn anything not tied down into dangerous shrapnel. It can rip roofs off, destroy buildings and uproot trees. Most thunderstorms don't spawn tornadoes, but all tornadoes ARE spawned by thunderstorms. A thunderstorm that produces large hail is capable of giving birth to a tornado and the more often seen downbursts.
