After a morning complex of non-severe storms on June 7th, redeveloping storms in the early afternoon intensified just south of I-80 and slowly evolved southeastward through the night, producing heavy rainfall rates and at times severe straight-line winds. Widespread rainfall of one and a half to four inches, with isolated totals higher fell across areas south of I-80.

Deaths and injuries are direct and indirect together, as the offices filed them. Damage is property and crops in the dollars of the year, not adjusted for inflation, and only where an office estimated it.
The episode as NWS LOT wrote it up.
After a morning complex of non-severe storms on June 7th, redeveloping storms in the early afternoon intensified just south of I-80 and slowly evolved southeastward through the night, producing heavy rainfall rates and at times severe straight-line winds. Widespread rainfall of one and a half to four inches, with isolated totals higher fell across areas south of I-80. This produced flooding and flash flooding. Scattered reports of roads closed during Sunday mid-afternoon through evening were received. There were a couple reports of water rescues and stranded vehicles. The highest rainfall reports were 4.95 inches near Kouts, IN and 4.07 inches near Hebron, IN, both from CoCoRaHS volunteer observers. There was video confirmation of two brief tornadoes in northern Jasper County, a few miles from the community of De Motte.
The local office's own words before the first event, as it sent them, from the Iowa Environmental Mesonet's archive of National Weather Service text.
NWS Chicago, IL wrote its last area forecast discussion before the first event at Jun 7, 2:56 PM CST, 32 minutes earlier.
AREA FORECAST DISCUSSION
NATIONAL WEATHER SERVICE CHICAGO/ROMEOVILLE IL
356 PM CDT SUN JUN 7 2015
.MESOSCALE DISCUSSION...
355 PM CDT
CONCERNING THE SUPERCELL MOVING INTO NORTHWESTERN INDIANA A FEW
MINUTES BEFORE 4 PM CDT...LATEST SURFACE OBS DO SHOW A MODEST
DISCONTINUITY WITH TEMPS/DEWPOINTS INDICATING A BOUNDARY IN THE
VICINITY OF THE STORM. IT DOES APPEAR THE STORM IS BECOMING ROOTED
WITHIN THE BOUNDARY LAYER WITH VISIBLE SATELLITE IMAGERY SHOWING
SURFACE BASED CUMULUS FROM THE SOUTH BEING INGESTED INTO THE
STORM. RADAR INDICATIONS DO SHOW A SLIGHT PROPENSITY OF BEING
OUTFLOW DOMINANT HOWEVER WILL HAVE TO KEEP A CLOSE EYE ON THIS
STORM FOR A POSSIBLE TORNADO WARNING.

.SHORT TERM...
153 PM CDT
MESOSCALE DISCUSSION...THROUGH THIS EVENING
SHORTWAVE OVER EASTERN IOWA CONTINUES TO PROGRESS STEADILY
EASTWARD AND LOOKING REASONABLY LIKELY THAT ADDED ASCENT WITH THIS
FEATURE WILL BE ENOUGH FOR CONVECTIVE INITIATION OVER THE NEXT
HOUR OR TWO NEAR AND JUST NORTH OF REMNANT OUTFLOW BOUNDARY FROM
THIS MORNING. THIS BOUNDARY EXTENDS FROM BENTON COUNTY WEST TO
SOUTH OF PONTIAC THEN BECOMES INCREASINGLY ILL DEFINED AS IT
EXTENDS WNW TOWARD QUAD CITIES.
AIR MASS TO THE SOUTH OF THE BOUNDARY IS GROWING VERY
WARM...HUMID AND UNSTABLE WITH TEMPS CLIMBING INTO THE MID-UPPER
80S AND DEWPOINTS INTO THE LOWER 70S. THE 18 ILX SOUNDING SUGGESTS
THAT MLCAPE VALUES ARE NEARING 2000 J/KG NEAR AND SOUTH OF THE
OUTFLOW BOUNDARY. MID LEVEL FLOW IS FAIRLY STRONG FOR THIS TIME OF
YEAR WITH 700-500MB FLOW OF 35-45KT NOTED ON AREA VWPS RESULTING
IN 0-6KM SHEAR VALUES OF 35-40KT. WOULD LIKE TO SEE MORE MID-LEVEL
DRY AIR TO ENCOURAGE QUICK DEVELOPMENT OF COLD POOL...BUT GIVEN
THE INSTABILITY SHEAR COMBO CERTAINLY A THREAT OF SEVERE
THUNDERSTORMS WITH MAIN THREAT DAMAGING WINDS.
SPECIAL GOES-R 1 MIN RESOLUTION VISIBLE IMAGERY DOES SHOW SLOWLY
DEEPENING CUMULUS FIELD OVER WC IL IN ADVANCE OF THE SHORTWAVE AND
THIS COULD BE THE FIRST SIGNS OF MORE SIGNIFICANT CONVECTIVE
DEVELOPMENT. STILL APPEARS GREATEST SEVERE THREAT WILL BE SOUTH OF
I-80 SO NO BIG CHANGES PLANNED TO GOING POPS.

.LONG TERM...
324 PM CDT
MONDAY THROUGH SUNDAY...
PRIMARY CONCERN ON MONDAY IS WITH THE POTENTIAL FOR FAIRLY
WIDESPREAD COVERAGE OF SCATTERED SHRA/TSRA AS MID/UPPER
DISTURBANCE DIVES SOUTHEAST IN UPPER TROUGH AXIS DIGGING ACROSS
THE GREAT LAKES REGION. DAY WILL START OUT QUIET WITH EXCEPTION OF
ANY LINGERING CONVECTION IN SOUTHEAST CWA TIED TO COLD FRONT
PASSAGE EXITING TO THE EAST. 850/925 MB TEMPS SUPPORT HIGHS
REACHING THE LOWER-MID 80S AND MODELS ARE SHOWING MIXING POSSIBLY
TO 750 MB OR EVEN A BIT HIGHER. HAVE GONE WITH LIKELY POPS FOR A
FAIRLY LARGE SWATH OF THE CWA/EASTERN 2/3 ESPECIALLY DURING THE
MID-LATE AFTERNOON AS THE SHEARED OUT DISTURBANCE RESULTS IN AN
UPTICK IN UPWARD MOTION. DEWPOINTS ONLY IN THE UPPER 50S TO LOWER
60S WILL LIMIT CAPE VALUES TO THE GENERALLY 500-1000 J/KG...BUT
PRESENCE OF 30-40 KT OF NORTHWESTERLY DEEP LAYER SHEAR COULD AID
IN A FEW STRONG TO MARGINALLY SEVERE STORMS. MAIN THREAT WOULD BE
STRONG WIND GUSTS DUE TO STEEP LOW LEVEL LAPSE RATES AND HAIL DUE
TO COLD MIDLEVEL TEMPS FROM MID/UPPER TROUGH. ACTIVITITY WILL BE
DIURNALLY DRIVEN AND LOSS OF LIFT FROM EXITING TROUGH MONDAY
EVENING SHOULD QUICKLY END ANY LINGERING SHOWERS...SO THE REST OF
MONDAY NIGHT WILL BE QUIET AND SEASONABLY MILD.
ON TUESDAY...HEIGHT RISES AND WEAK SFC HIGH PRESSURE TRANSITING
THE AREA WILL RESULT IN A DRY AND WARM DAY WITH HIGHS LIKELY IN
THE MID 80S DUE TO 925 MB TEMPS BETWEEN +20 AND +22 CELSIUS.
EXCEPTION COULD BE PORTIONS OF LAKESHORE AS WEST-NORTHWEST FLOW
ALOFT COULD WEAKEN ENOUGH TO LET A WEAK LAKE BREEZE SLIP IN TO
IMMEDIATE SHORE AREAS FROM COOK COUNTY TO NORTHWEST INDIANA.
TUESDAY NIGHT WILL BE QUITE MILD AS A STRONG LOW PRESSURE SYSTEM
MOVES NORTH OF THE NORTHERN LAKES...RESULTING IN STEADY TO
OCCASIONALLY GUSTY SOUTH-SOUTHWEST FLOW. VERY WARM AIRMASS WILL
GET ADVECTED EASTWARD AHEAD OF COLD FRONT TRAILING FROM LOW
PRESSURE AREA. 850 TEMPS IN HIGH TEENS CELSIUS AND 925 MB TEMPS IN
LOWER-MID 20S CELSIUS WILL YIELD AT LEAST MID-UPPER 80S NORTH OF
I-80 AND AROUND 90 SOUTH...WITH WARMER TEMPS CERTAINLY POSSIBLE IF
SLOWER FROPA VERIFIES. GIVEN UNCERTAINTY OF FRONTAL TIMING AND
LACK OF UPPER SUPPORT...HAVE KEPT POPS LOW TUESDAY NIGHT INTO
WEDNESDAY.
THE REST OF THE EXTENDED PERIOD LOOKS ON THE WARMER SIDE WITH
PERIODIC OPPORTUNITIES FOR THUNDERSTORMS...SO HAVE CHANCE POPS
THROUGHOUT GENERALLY. HOWEVER WOULD NOT EXPECT ANY DAYS TO BE
TOTAL WASHOUTS. 12Z OPERATIONAL RUNS OF THE GFS AND EUROPEAN DO
INDICATE A POSSIBLY STRONGER UPPER TROUGH AND SFC REFLECTION
PASSING NEARBY THURSDAY NIGHT THROUGH FRIDAY...SO MAY HAVE TO
WATCH THAT PERIOD FOR STRONGER CONVECTION.

//DISCUSSION...UPDATED 18Z...
FORECAST DETAILS FOR THIS AFTERNOON CONTINUE TO REMAIN MURKY WITH
PRETTY MUCH ALL GUIDANCE NOT INITIALIZING WELL ON THE CURRENT
CONDITIONS. INITIAL ROUND OF CONVECTION THIS MORNING HAS BECOME
MORE SCATTERED HOWEVER PROGRESSED FAR ENOUGH EAST/SOUTHEAST TODAY
THAT SECOND ROUND OF DEVELOPMENT REMAINS UNCERTAIN. OUTFLOW
BOUNDARY LAYED OUT WEST-EAST ACROSS PORTIONS OF CENTRAL AND EAST
CENTRAL ILLINOIS THOUGH HAS BEGAN TO WAVE BACK NORTH ON THE NOSE
OF GUSTY SOUTHWEST WINDS. OFF TO OUR SOUTHWEST MID-UPPER 70 TEMPS
WITH UPPER 60/LOW 70 DEWPOINTS ARE GRADUALLY PUSHING NORTHEAST AND
THIS AREA WOULD SEEM TO BE THE FAVORABLE AREA FOR RENEWED AND
POSSIBLY SEVERE THUNDERSTORM DEVELOPMENT THIS AFTERNOON AS UPPER
SHORTWAVE ABOUT TO CROSS THE MISSISSIPPI VALLEY PROVIDES BROAD
SCALE ASCENT OVER THE REGION. MAIN QUESTION IS HOW FAR NORTH DO
THUNDERSTORMS DEVELOP WITH THIS NEXT WAVE AND CURRENT INDICATIONS
ARE THAT IT MAY BE NEAR BUT MORE LIKELY SOUTH OF THE I-80
CORRIDORS...WITH ONLY ISOLATED/WIDELY SCATTERED ACTIVITY FARTHER
NORTH. DID TRY TO TEMPER THE FORECAST SOME BY BACKING OFF FROM
PREVAILING TSRA TO TEMPO TSRA BUT CONFIDENCE AT THIS POINT
CONTINUES TO DECREASE ON TSRA...ESPECIALLY AT ORD.
LOOKING AT TOMORROW...ANOTHER WAVE WILL DROP ACROSS THE AREA WITH
THE POTENTIAL FOR HIGH BASED THUNDERSTORMS TO DEVELOP. BREEZY
NORTHWEST WINDS ARE EXPECTED TOMORROW ALONG WITH PRIMARILY VFR
CONDITIONS.

GUSTY SOUTHWEST WINDS HAZARDOUS TO SMALL CRAFT WILL DIMINISH THIS

AFTERNOON...A DEEPLY MIXED AND WARM AIR MASS OVER LAND COULD YIELD
GUSTS UP TO 20-25 KT IN THE NEARSHORE WATERS DURING THE
AFTERNOON...WITH LIGHTER WINDS OVER THE STABLE OPEN LAKE. THE NEXT
PERIOD OF STRONGER WINDS WILL BE TUESDAY NIGHT INTO WEDNESDAY AS A
STRONG LOW MOVES NORTH OF THE NORTHERN LAKES...WITH SOUTH-
SOUTHWEST WINDS ESPECIALLY ON THE NORTHERN LAKE UP TO 25 KT
DESPITE STABLE CONDITIONS. A COLD FRONT TRAILING FROM THE LOW
WILL CROSS THE LAKE ON WEDNESDAY AND BRING LIGHTER WINDS THE REST
