Meteorologists at the northern Indiana office of the National Weather Service have slightly less confidence in the extent and/or coverage of severe weather in its 37-county warning area this afternoon and evening. An updated “Hazardous Weather Outlook” that the northern Indiana office issued at 10:57 a.m. EDT reflects this change. It reads, “Spotter activation may be needed this afternoon.” The outlook that the office issued early this morning (4:47 a.m. EDT) reads, “Spotter activation will be likely by this afternoon.” The change from “will be likely” to “may be needed” reflects the change in confidence in the extent and/or coverage of today’s severe weather.
