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

WESELY/NELSONWhat 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 Hastings, NE wrote its last area forecast discussion before this severe thunderstorm warning went out at May 11, 2:10 PM CDT, 4 hours 35 minutes earlier.
Area forecast discussion, May 11, 2:10 PM CDT, 4 hours 35 minutes before
AREA FORECAST DISCUSSION NATIONAL WEATHER SERVICE HASTINGS NE ...COR LONG TERM DAYS... 210 PM CDT WED MAY 11 2005 .SHORT TERM...PARAMETERS COMING TOGETHER FOR WELL ADVERTISED SEVERE WEATHER EVENING. CONVECTION TO OUR EAST SENDING OUTFLOW TO THE WEST...SURFACE FRONT OVER THE CENTRAL CWFA... AND INCREASING CONVERGENCE SETTING UP OVER NORTH CENTRAL KANSAS IN MODERATE TO VERY UNSTABLE AIRMASS. UPPER SUPPORT TO THE WEST ALREADY KICKING ELEVATED THUNDERSTORMS IN FAR SOUTHWEST NEBRASKA. ANTICIPATE RAPIDLY INCREASING COVERAGE BY LATE AFTERNOON FROM SOUTH TO NORTH...AND THUNDERSTORM NEAR THE BOUNDARY INTERSECTIONS COULD BE TORNADIC. THIS SEEMS TO FAVOR THE SOUTHERN TWO TIER OF NEBRASKA COUNTIES...AND NORTH CENTRAL KANSAS. SEVERE WEATHER EXPECTED WELL INTO THE EVENING...BEFORE SYSTEM ROLLS EAST WITH POTENTIAL FOR SOME HEAVY RAIN. WITH THE EXCEPTION OF A COUPLE OF SPOTS...MOST OF THE CWFA HAS BEEN DRY IN RECENT WEEKS AND COULD TAKE SOME SUBSTANTIAL RAIN. WILL LET SHORT FUSE SITUATION DICTATE HYDROLOGIC ASPECTS AT THIS TIME. LOOKING INTO THURSDAY...EXPECT ONGOING CONVECTION TO BE WORKING ACROSS MOST OF THE EASTERN CWFA IN THE MORNING...AND INCREASED POPS JUST A BIT. QUESTION IS WEATHER ANY CLEARING RESULTS...AND WHILE SOME MAY BRIEFLY OCCUR IN SUBSIDENT WAKE...LIKELY TO REFILL WITH STRATOCU. TEMPERATURES WILL BE MUCH COOLER SOUTHEAST CWFA AS FRONT SHOULD GET SHOVED SOUTHEAST OF THE CWFA. EXPECT MAIN CONVECTION ACTIVITY THURSDAY EVENING TO BE JUST SOUTHEAST OF THE CWFA. LEFT SMALL POPS NEAR FRONT JUST IN CASE. .LONG TERM...00Z FRIDAY THROUGH WEDNESDAY...ANOTHER IN A SERIES OF SHORT WAVES MOVE ACROSS THE AREA THURSDAY NIGHT AND FRIDAY...AND THE MAIN UPPER LEVEL TROUGH MOVES THROUGH LATE FRIDAY. THIS WILL CONTINUE A CHANCE OF SHOWERS OR THUNDERSTORMS IN THE AREA INTO FRIDAY. THE SURFACE FRONT ASSOCIATED WITH THIS SYSTEM HANGS UP JUST TO THE SOUTH OF THE FORECAST AREA. IF THIS WERE TO HANG UP FURTHER NORTH...THEN THERE WOULD BE A GREATER CHANCE OF PRECIPITATION. THE GFS IS FURTHER NORTH WITH THIS SYSTEM THAN THE NAM. AN UPPER RIDGE TRIES TO BUILD INTO THE REGION WITH A SURFACE HIGH PRESSURE. THIS SHOULD HELP TO CLEAR THE SKIES OUT AND BRING AN END TO THE PRECIPITATION. DRY CONDITIONS WILL PERSIST THROUGH THE WEEKEND AND EVEN INTO EARLY NEXT WEEK. ANOTHER LOW PRESSURE SYSTEM MOVES INTO THE REGION LATE MONDAY. THE SURFACE LOW IS SLOW TO MOVE INTO THE FORECAST AREA. KEPT SOME LOW POPS IN FOR TUESDAY AND TUESDAY NIGHT AS THE LOW SLOWLY MOVES ACROSS THE FORECAST AREA. THE LOW WEAKENS ON WEDNESDAY THEN STRENGTHENS AGAIN LATE THURSDAY. WILL KEEP WEDNESDAY AND THURSDAY DRY UNTIL THE LOCATION OF THE SURFACE FRONT IS A LITTLE MORE DEFINITE ON THURSDAY. && .GID WATCHES/WARNINGS/ADVISORIES... NE...NONE. KS...NONE. && MORITZ/WESELY/JCB
