Bush Issues Disaster in Ind. After Storms
Advertisements [?]

After a week of thunderstorms, the area's forecast was finally improving Friday, said Indiana Emergency Management Agency spokesman Alden Taylor.

"We are holding our own," he said. "It's not getting worse, and it is getting better, but it is getting better slowly."
