Our first real severe storm in Bloomington.

 My lights are flickering on and off as I type this but fyi, there are multiple hazards in effect. For Monroe County we have the following:

Severe Thunderstorm Watch until 1:00am

Severe Thunderstorm Warning until 8:30pm

Flash Flood Warning until 9:15pm

This hazardous weather outlook is for central Indiana.

.DAY ONE...This Afternoon and Tonight.

Outlook: Severe thunderstorms expected this evening.

Hazards: Widespread damaging winds likely, frequent lightning, and
heavy rain that may lead to localized flooding.

Timing: Primarily 6 to 11 PM. A second wave of storms may produce
primarily heavy rain across southwestern portions of central Indiana
after 3 AM.

Discussion: An approaching cold front has produced an extremely
strong line of severe thunderstorms to our northwest. This line of
storms is expected to move across portions of central Indiana in the
6 to 11 PM time frame, with widespread damaging winds likely.

.DAYS TWO THROUGH SEVEN...Tuesday through Sunday.

Outlook: Periodic thunderstorms are possible each day. Lightning and
heavy rain are possible with any thunderstorm.

Discussion: A front will linger in the area through the week,
keeping chances for thunderstorms in the forecast.
