The radar

The State College radar (KCCX), 140 km from the middle of the area, began a volume at 17:43 UTC, the scan nearest the moment this went out.

The archived warnings, watches and discussions in force at that minute are drawn over the scan, this one among them.

Did it verify

Not verified. The Iowa Environmental Mesonet's Cow found no qualifying storm report inside this severe thunderstorm warning while it was in force. That is not proof nothing happened: reports are thin where few people live.

Cow counts a report within 15 km of the polygon while the warning was in force: a tornado for a tornado warning; hail of 1 inch or more, a gust of 58 mph or more or wind damage for a severe thunderstorm warning; a flash flood report for a flash flood warning.

The watch it was issued in

What forecasters said that day

The local office's own words before this severe thunderstorm warning went out, as it sent them, from the Iowa Environmental Mesonet's archive of National Weather Service text.

NWS State College, PA wrote its last area forecast discussion before this severe thunderstorm warning went out at Jun 6, 1:24 PM EDT, 16 minutes earlier.

Area forecast discussion, Jun 6, 1:24 PM EDT, 16 minutes before

AREA FORECAST DISCUSSION...UPDATED
NATIONAL WEATHER SERVICE STATE COLLEGE PA
124 PM EDT MON JUN 6 2005

.SHORT TERM (REST OF TODAY)...
ANOTHER QUICK UPDATE TO REWORK WORDING AND POPS FOR THE REMAINDER
OF THE DAY.  WW413 CONTINUES THROUGH 6 PM...AND ADDITIONAL TSTORMS
ALREADY DEVEOPING ALONG NEXT SHORTWAVE AHEAD OF COLD FRONT IN W PA
WILL BRING ROUND 2 OF SEVERE WEATHER FOR CENTRAL PA THIS AFTERNOON.

&&

.PREVIOUS DISCUSSION...
(ISSUED 945 AM EDT MON JUN 6 2005)

SHORT TERM (REST OF TODAY)...
UPDATED FOR SEVERE THUNDERSTORM WATCH #413.

PREVIOUS DISCUSSION...
(ISSUED 320 AM EDT MON JUN 6 2005)

SHORT TERM (TODAY)...
AFTER WHAT HAS BEEN A QUIET SPRING FOR SEVERE WEATHER THUS
FAR...CENTRAL PA WILL HAVE ITS BEST CHANCE SO FAR THIS SEASON FOR
STRONG TO LOCALLY SEVERE STORMS LATER TODAY. MOISTURE NOT A
PROBLEM... AS SFC DEWPOINTS WILL AVERAGE IN THE MIDDLE 60S WITH
DEEP LAYER PWATS 1.5. RESULTING MODEL CAPES EXCEED 2500 J/KG*2
IN BOTH NAM/GFS BUT LOW LEVEL MOISTURE APPEARS OVERDONE IN
FORECAST SOUNDINGS...SO THINK 2000 J/KG*2 IS A GOOD UPPER LIMIT.
UNIDIRECTIONAL SHEAR WILL SUPPORT STORMS ORGANIZED INTO LINES WITH
WIND GUSTS THE MAIN SEVERE WEATHER THREAT...ALONG WITH HAIL.
MAGNITUDE OF VERTICAL WIND SHEAR MAY BE A LIMITING FACTOR FOR
THESE STORMS...BUT GIVEN THE AVAILABLE CAPE THINK THE STAGE IS SET
FOR AN ACTIVE DAY OF STORMS ACROSS CENTRAL PA.

CONVECTION CURRENTLY DYING OVER NORTHWEST PA WITH AN IMPRESSIVE
OUTFLOW BOUNDARY STILL EVIDENT JUST EAST OF PBZ EXTENDING
NORTHWARD TO NEAR KBUF. UPPER LEVEL SHORTWAVE AND OLD OUTFLOW
BOUNDARY SHOULD BE SUFFICIENT TO INITIATE NEW CONVECTION BY LATE
MONDAY MORNING...SPREADING WEST TO EAST ACROSS CENTRAL PA DURING
THE AFTERNOON AND INTO THE EVENING. FWC MOS MAX TEMPS APPEAR
SUPERIOR TO MAV THIS MORNING...AS MOST AREAS WILL START OFF
SEVERAL DEGREES WARMER THIS MORNING THAN YESTERDAY. SOUTHERN AND
SOUTHEAST SECTIONS MAY FLIRT WITH 90 BEFORE STORMS MOVE IN LATER
TODAY.

LONG TERM (TONIGHT THROUGH SUNDAY)...
UPPER TROF WILL PUSH A WEAK SFC COLD FRONT/TROF ACROSS THE REGION
BY TONIGHT...BRINGING AN END TO THE CONVECTIVE ACTIVITY BY LATE
EVENING. UPPER LEVEL RIDGING RETURNS ON TUESDAY WITH 850 TEMPS
AGAIN WARMING TO +18C...SO ANOTHER WARM AND MUGGY DAY IS IN STORE
ON TUESDAY.  BUT GIVEN THE INCREASING RIDGING/CAP AND LACK OF AN
AVAILABLE TRIGGER...THINK TUESDAY WILL BE QUIET DESPITE PWATS
BUILDING WELL OVER 1.5.

REMAINDER OF WEEK WILL FEATURE MORE OF THE SAME WARMTH AND
HUMIDITY AS LARGE UPPER RIDGE CENTERS ALONG THE MID ATLANTIC
COAST. WITH THE UPPER RIDGE AXIS TO OUR EAST...THE AREA IS
SUSCEPTIBLE TO SHORTWAVE ENCROACHMENT FROM THE WEST WHICH COULD
EASILY INITIATE MAINLY AFTN/EVENING CONVECTION ON ANY AFTERNOON
FROM WEDNESDAY THROUGH SUNDAY. TRUE SUMMER WEATHER IS FINALLY HERE.

AVIATION...
WITH DEWPOINTS IN THE MID 60S WIDESPREAD LIGHT HAZE AND FOG WILL
AFFECT MUCH OF THE REGION THROUGH THE PD WITH MVFR VISIBILITIES.
ISOLD IFR VIS IN FOG/HAZE EXPECTED THROUGH LATE MORNING. CONVECTION
WILL DEVELOP THIS AFTN PRODUCING SCT MVFR VIS AND CIGS WITH ISOLD
IFR CONDS THROUGH THE EVENING HOURS.

.CTP WATCHES/WARNINGS/ADVISORIES...
PA...NONE.
