Unless something changes very fast here, Indianapolis is in for some very serious trouble of the tornado kind.

From another storm board:

"They are currently evacuating the sports stadium where a baseball game is underway. I believe they are telling people to stay in the infrastructure of the stadium and advising them not to leave in their cars"

This is looking wicked. New cells popping up everywhere. We had heavy rain and pea size hail earlier here in Dayton. We are under Tornado watch until 2am. The Thunderstorm warnings keep coming and going.

If we're lucky here, this will track to the west of town, though I doubt it will miss the 'burbs. To be honest, though, this looks really bad. Only thing good that could be happening right now is if the meso cycled or if for some reason this storm isn't putting a tornado down right now. But this looks pretty bad.

The radar site looks to be in the path of the hook. The radar site is located at Indianapolis Airport so things could get hairy if it drops a tornado before it reaches there. There are a fairly dense area of residential buildings around the airport too which isn't good

The 9:47pm scan now showing some 72dbz returns on BR1 . . .

Leading edge of the storm is starting to enter the cone of silence :(

Good idea, even though downtown Indianapolis doesn't seem to be in the current immediate path - a lot could change in the next 30 minutes.

Funnel cloud reported 2miles east of Danville, off to the west of the city.

Bad news: A TVS just appeared again, and a couplet is reforming. Next scan should see a hook reforming, or have it on top of the radar site
