An area of convergence, combined with 35 to 40 knots of shear, over 2000 J/KG of CAPE and plenty of moisture all set the stage for thunderstorms to develop over southern Lake Michigan and work southeast. Pockets of wind damage were reported, along with some hail and flooding due to already wet conditions.

Flash Flood in KOSCIUSKO, INDIANA
From 07-JUL-17 12:38:00 to 07-JUL-17 20:00:00 (EST-5)
Location: ETNA GREEN
Flood cause: Heavy Rain
Property damage: 0.00K
Crop damage: 0.00K
Reported by: Broadcast Media

Training thunderstorms over much of southwestern Kosciusko county dropped between 4 and 6 inches of rain in the span of a few hours, causing widespread flooding and areas of flash flooding. At least a dozen roads were closed at one point due to water flowing over them. South Bruner Street, just northeast of Palestine, was washed away over Magee Robbins Ditch when the water flow exceeded the drainage pipe limits. This resulted in residents on the other side being stranded for several hours until the water receded and temporary repairs could be made.
