No major damage reports were received after the storm blew into Ripley County.
The storms did bring some heavy rains, which triggered a flash flood warning and caused part of State Road 262 to flood overnight.
By Wednesday morning, Southeastern Indiana REMC and Duke Energy were reporting a miniscule number of power outages in the tri-state.
