During the late morning through the afternoon of Monday August 10th, a line of intense thunderstorms known as a derecho brought widespread severe wind damage across Iowa, northern Illinois and northern Indiana.||In northwest Indiana alone, the winds downed hundreds of trees, as well as caused damage to homes, businesses and infrastructure. There were two injuries reported in northwest Indiana within the NWS Chicago/Romeoville County Warning Area (CWA) due to falling trees. It was estimated that over 200,000 customers lost power at the height of the derecho across all of northern Indiana. While much of the damage was due to straight line winds, there was also one tornado documented in northwest Indiana.||The combination of high moisture, explosive instability and very strong atmospheric wind flow for mid-summer had developed quickly over the Corn Belt region on the morning of August 10th. This resulted in a progressive, well-organized complex of storms for hundreds of miles and at times traveling nearly 70 mph. After bringing extensive damage from extreme wind speeds in Iowa that morning, the damage transitioned across northern Illinois from widespread wind damage to narrow, brief and intense swaths associated with compact circulations within the thunderstorm line, some of which were associated with tornadoes.
