The agency reported that the system could knock down tree limbs and blow around unsecured objects. Saturday's system marks the second consecutive day of adverse weather in central Indiana. On Friday, the remnants of Hurricane Helene pushed through the area, knocking out power and damaging homes and trees. Before Saturday's system hit the area, both AES Indiana and Duke Energy had reported that they had resolved thousands of customers' power outages that were caused by Friday's storms.
