Officials say the EF-0, the secondary tornado carried winds speeds estimated up to 85 mph and formed on the south/southwest flank of the larger “wedge” tornado that came through the county.

The tornados bring a total of six tornados that have been confirmed to have touched down in Indiana during the storms from March 10-11.
