After a tornado in Southern Indiana on Tuesday evening, Beryl continues to affect weather around the state. NWS announced early Wednesday that a wind advisory is in effect, with wind gusts of 25-35 mph expected, for parts of Central Indiana.

Beryl prompts flood watch in northwest Indiana overnight into Wednesday

Beryl's remnants are expected to continue to impact the Midwest through Wednesday, as the NWS has issued a flood watch for portions of northwest Indiana and southern Illinois through Wednesday afternoon.

Expected "excessive rainfall" has the potential to cause localized flooding and for creeks and streams to overtop their banks. Additional rainfall of 2-4 inches in the region could cause travel impacts and other dangerous conditions.

The Indianapolis metro area is outside the flood watch area, but remains under a hazardous weather outlook through Wednesday, with high winds gusting up to 50 mph anticipated alongside a continued threat of thunderstorms.

By 9 p.m. Tuesday, the NWS forecast scattered showers and thunderstorms, mainly before 1 p.m. Wednesday, before the skies begin to clear into the remainder of the week. Wednesday's high temperature is expected to hit the mid-70s.

A tornado warning remained in effect in eastern Indiana through 9:15 p.m. Tuesday, as the severe thunderstorm that rolled through the state moved toward the Ohio state line near Liberty.

Mount Vernon tornado causes gas leak, other damage in southwest Indiana

Black Township Fire Department Chief Jay Price said the department's 911 center communications were downed by the Mount Vernon tornado, which delayed response by firefighters who were on a medical call when the tornado formed.

Price said the tornado caused some roof collapses at a trailer park and a major gas leak, among other damage, but hadn't caused any known injuries as of late Tuesday afternoon.

Mount Vernon is a southwest Indiana city just west of Evansville, nestled along the Ohio River. It is home to roughly 6,300 residents.

Photos taken by staff of the Evansville Courier & Press also show a train that was derailed in the storm, power poles split in half and overturned tractor trailers left in the tornado's path.
