⚡ Haily's Briefing

Indiana has no active hail or wind alerts right now, and SPC’s latest discussion only brushes the state with a lower-end threat: isolated damaging wind gusts may reach parts of the upper Ohio Valley Saturday afternoon, with a broader chance of small to marginally severe hail and locally damaging wind gusts across the upper Ohio Valley Sunday afternoon and evening. The more significant severe setup SPC highlights is well west of Indiana, where hail up to 2 inches and wind gusts of 55–70 mph are possible in the central/southern Plains and Ozark Plateau, while the Minnesota/Nebraska line is the only corridor mentioned with any tornado potential.

Ranked by SPC verified storm reports (wind, hail, tornado) across all 50 states over the last 12 months. Severity-weighted index scores each report by hazard (tornado ×20, hail ×4, wind ×1) so a single derecho's flood of wind reports doesn't outweigh tornado outbreaks. Recalculated daily as of Sep 12, 2026.

Proudly AI-powered. Honestly sourced. IDOLCheck is built by HailyAI. Every storm event, magnitude, radar snapshot, and date on this page is deterministic — retrieved directly from official NOAA, National Weather Service (NWS), and Storm Prediction Center (SPC) storm records through our HailyDB engine and displayed exactly as reported. Quoted warning and report text is always attributed to its official source. Where the surrounding copy is not a direct quote, it was generated with AI assistance from that same verified storm data and reviewed and approved by humans before publication. AI organizes and presents the record — it never invents storm data.
