Storms Are Predicted To Stick Around Through Sunday

A stormy night as the first of what will be several severe weather systems rolled through the Tri-State.

Heavy rain, hail, straight-line winds, as well as numerous radar indicated tornadoes, led to power outages and damage from fallen trees.

Center Point Energy reported 22,000 outages at the height of the storm.

Trees fell on homes in the 2200 block of East Monroe Street in Evansville and the 2500 block of Lexington Road in Vanderburgh County.

At least one confirmed tornado on the ground was reported near Madisonville, where over 500 Municipal Utilities are without power.

Heavy rain is expected to continue through Sunday afternoon, leading to what could be historic flooding.
