- Gibson County Sheriff Bruce Vanoven said several homes were "completely obliterated" in Gibson County, Indiana; in Newburgh, two roofs collapsed at the Park Place Apartments, injuring three people.
- Deputy Emergency Management Coordinator Keith Hertenstein reported at least 20 homes damaged in the county, while downed trees and power lines left residents without electricity as crews worked active scenes.
