What happened
The episode as NWS IND wrote it up.
A vigorous low pressure system developed across the northern plains lowering to 968 millibars on the morning of November 10. Meanwhile, an associated strong cold front moved west to east across central Indiana during the morning and early afternoon. Very moist and slightly unstable air was rapidly returned northward ahead of this front which allowed a severe squall-line to form and push across the state just ahead of the front. Numerous reports of downed trees were reported across most of the counties in the storm's path. The squall-line produced widespread wind gusts from 50 to 70 mph, alhtough very little cloud-to-ground lighning was detected with the line. Gradient winds were very strong ahead of the line which aided the thunderstorm gusts. Property damage was reported in Ipton, Morgan, Hendricks, Randolph, Madison, Hancock and Jackson counties. Damage was mainly done to roofs.
The radar
The Indianapolis radar (KIND), 108 km away, was scanning. The volume nearest the first event began at 13:32 UTC.
