The radar

The Des Moines radar (KDMX), 60 km from the middle of the area, began a volume at 05:50 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 nearest sounding before it

Davenport, (KDVN), launched 00:00Z, 5.8 hours before the alert went out and 221 km from the middle of its area. This is the routine balloon launch nearest before it, the air the forecaster had in hand, not a measurement taken for the alert.

AREA FORECAST DISCUSSION
NATIONAL WEATHER SERVICE DES MOINES IA
340 PM CDT TUE MAY 10 2005

.DISCUSSION...

CONCERNS CONTINUE TO FOCUS ON SVR POTENTIAL AS WELL AS POSSIBLE
FLOODING ISSUES.

CURRENT...SFC BOUNDARY DRAPED ACROSS NE TO SW IA CUTTING ROUGHLY
FROM KDBQ TO KDSM TO KOMA.  ANOTHER WEAK WIND SHIFT FEATURE OVER THE
NORTHERN AREA OF THE STATE. DEVELOPING LOW IN SE COLORADO CONTINUES
TO INCREASE SFC WIND FIELD WEST WITH LL MOISTURE FROM SFC TO 925 MB
STREAMING NORTH ATTM. TD ALREADY APPROACHING 70 F OVER NORTHERN TX.

NOT MAKE MUCH PROGRESS.

SHORT TERM...TONIGHT THROUGH THURSDAY...ACTIVE WX SET UP WITH CAPE
BULLSEYE DEVELOPING OVER SE NE THIS AFTERNOON EVE COMBINED WITH MAX
THETA-E ADV HEADING NORTH INTO NORTHEAST NEBRASKA...NO CHANGES FROM
PREVIOUS THINKING WITH INITIATION TAKING PLACE IN NEBRASKA TOWARD
00Z. HOWEVER...CONCERN IS THE CURRENT FRONTAL POSITION AND EVENTUAL
TRACK OF MCS WITH SVR THIS EVENING AND RAIN OVERNIGHT MAY BE SHIFTED
FARTHER SOUTH. MAX INSTABILITY CONTINUES OVER CENTRAL IA OVN WITH
THETA-E ADV AND MOISTURE TRANSPORT TAKING SYSTEM INTO EAST AND
NORTHEAST IA TOWARD MORNING. INITIALLY ALONG THE BOUNDARY THIS
EVENING WILL BE ENOUGH SHEAR TO SUPPORT SUPERCELLS AND POTENTIAL
LARGE HAIL AND POSSIBLE TORNADO THREAT AS PER SPC...ESPECIALLY ALONG

CONTINUE FOR CENTRAL AND NORTHERN SECTIONS OF FORECAST AREA. WILL BE
ISSUING FLOOD WATCH FOR THE REGION...WITH OPPORTUNITIES FOR ANOTHER
MCS TOMORROW NIGHT...WITH FOCUS SHIFTING NORTHWARD TOWARD THE IA-MN
BORDER. RAINFALL AMOUNTS TNT LOOK TO BE IN THE 1-3 INCH RANGE IN
AXIS OF HEAVIEST RAIN WITH POTENTIAL FOR LOCALLY HIGHER AMOUNTS AS
STRONG H850 LLJ IMPINGES ON BOUNDARY OVER AREA.

MODELS COMING INTO BETTER AGREEMENT FOR WED WITH FRONT SAGGING SOUTH
AND KEEPING MAX SVR THREAT OVER THE SOUTHERN AREAS. MCS AGAIN
EXPECTED TO DEVELOP WITH MAX MOISTURE TRANSPORT AND ISENTROPIC LIFT
AGAIN SETTING UP OVR SOUTHERN NE AND NORTHERN MO. EVOLVING MCS WOULD

MORNING. WITH SYSTEM STILL WEST...MORE ROUNDS OF RAIN AND THUNDER
WILL CONTINUE THU AFTERNOON/EVE WITH RESIDUAL SHOWERS AND
THUNDERSTORMS INTO FRIDAY...GRADUALLY ENDING BY FRI NIGHT.

EXTENDED...SATURDAY THOUGH TUESDAY...MODELS IN GENERALLY GOOD
AGREEMENT INTO THE EARLY WEEKEND FOR TRANSITION TO NW FLOW AND
DRYING...ALLOWING FOR A BREAK FROM THE EXPECTED PATTERN THE NEXT FEW
DAYS. EURO/NAM SUGGEST A SLOWER TRANSITION FROM FRI ON RESULTING IN
TYPICALLY SLOWER ARRIVAL OF NEXT SYSTEM EARLY NEXT WEEK. WITH THAT
TREND...HAVE MODIFIED TEMPS AND PRECIP CHANCES INTO EARLY NEXT WEEK
BY ADJUSTING TIMING A TOUCH FOR POPS LATE MONDAY. BY TUESDAY CHANCES
