May 25, 2006 Santa Claus, IN

May 25th, 2006 by Bill

Yes, Virginia, there is a Santa Claus in Indiana, and it is between Evansville, IN and Louisville, KY. And, yes, we chased all of the way east into southern Indiana in order to see supercells on the final day of Tour 2 in 2006. Several cells formed in southeast IL and moved east through extreme southwest IN. We were on one with an impressive lowering along I-64 near Dale, IN. A tornado appeared imminent for a while, but it didn’t happen for us. A little farther south, the Santa Claus area was subject to hail nearly baseball-size. The mammatus display at Lynnville was excellent.
