Did it verify

AUTENWhat 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 Lincoln, IL wrote its last area forecast discussion before this severe thunderstorm warning went out at Aug 18, 9:15 PM CDT, 5 hours 49 minutes earlier.
Area forecast discussion, Aug 18, 9:15 PM CDT, 5 hours 49 minutes before
AREA FORECAST DISCUSSION NATIONAL WEATHER SERVICE LINCOLN IL 915 PM CDT THU AUG 18 2005 .DISCUSSION... SFC MAP INDICATES SFC LOW IN SOUTHERN WISCONSIN... WITH ASSOCIATED COLD FRONT DRAPED THROUGH EASTERN IA AND BACK ACROSS NORTHERN MISSOURI. A WEAKENING WARM FRONT IS STRETCHED IN A N-S FASHION ACROSS CENTRAL ILLINOIS. APPEARS AS THOUGH WEAK CAPPING INVERSION... ALONG WITH SUBSIDENCE ALOFT... SQUASHED ANY CONVECTION CHANCES EARLIER THIS AFTERNOON AND EVENING. HOWEVER... STORMS HAVE BEGUN DEVELOPING ALONG THE COLD FRONT IN NORTHERN MISSOURI... WITH MORE SCATTERED ACTIVITY POPPING UP AFTER SUNSET ACROSS THE SOUTHERN HALF OF THE CWA. SCATTERED CONVECTION... NOT ALONG THE MAIN COLD FRONT... IS LIKELY SPARKING UP IN ASSOCIATION WITH MODEST WARM AIR/THETA-E ADVECTION ASSOCIATED WITH STRENGTHENING LLJ... WHICH STILL REMAINS FOCUSED FARTHER WEST. 18Z ETA SEEMS TO HAVE A FAIRLY GOOD HANDLE ON THINGS... AND INDICATES STRENGTHENING H85 LLJ OVERNIGHT WILL AID IN MCS DEVELOPMENT ACROSS NORTHERN MISSOURI... WHICH SHOULD TRACK EAST OR ESE-WARD ACROSS AT LEAST THE SOUTHERN HALF OF THE CWA. MORE SCATTERED CONVECTION MAY FIRE FARTHER NORTH ALONG AND AHEAD OF THE COLD FRONT... BUT PRIMARY AREA APPEARS TO BE FOCUSED FARTHER SOUTH... CLOSER TO LLJ AXIS. UPPER AIR MAPS INDICATE STRONG 50-60 KT H5 JET AXIS NOSING INTO SOUTHERN WISCONSIN. SO WHILE OVERALL SHEAR HAS BEEN INCREASING... STILL LOOKS LIKE THE STRONGEST SHEAR WILL REMAIN NORTH OF THE AREA IN WISCONSIN... WHERE IT HAS BEEN A BUSY AFTERNOON AND EVENING. ALTHOUGH THE STRONGEST SHEAR REMAINS NORTH... THE 00Z ILX SOUNDING INDICATED STRENGTHENING WIND FIELDS SINCE 18Z... WITH 0-3 KM SHEAR INCREASING TO ABOUT 40 KTS. SOUNDING WIND PARAMETERS INDICATES A PRIMARY THREAT OF STRONG WINDS... WITH STRONGEST SHEAR BELOW 3KM... SUPPORTING LINE SEGMENTS WITH POSSIBLE BOW ECHOES. SOME OF THE LESS ORGANIZED... PULSEY CELLS MAY ALSO BE CAPABLE OF PRODUCING STRONG GUSTY WINDS AS WELL. WILL BE ISSUING A ZONE UPDATE SHORTLY... WHICH BASICALLY INCREASES POPS ACROSS THE SOUTHERN HALF OF THE CWA... IN LINE WITH THE OVERNIGHT MCS THINKING. && .PREV DISCUSSION... CONCERN TODAY IS POSSIBLE REFIRING CONVECTION THIS EVENING AND OVERNIGHT...PLUS THE CONVECTION WITH THE STRONG COLD FRONT ON FRIDAY NIGHT...AND FINALLY THE HIGH PRESSURE THEN BUILDING IN FOR THE EXTENDED PERIODS. .SHORT TERM...TONIGHT THROUGH SATURDAY NIGHT CONVECTION FROM PREVIOUS STORMS OVER NORTHERN AND SOUTHERN ILLINOIS HAVE LEFT BEHIND SIGNIFICANT BOUNDARIES OVER ILLINOIS, SOUTHERN ILLINOIS AND MISSOURI. 18Z SOUNDING FROM ILX SHOWS SOMEWHAT OF A CAP IN THE REGION. THIS PLUS THE SUBSIDENCE BEHIND THE UPPER LEVEL WAVE THAT FIRED THE MORNING CONVECTION IS HELPING TO HOLD DOWN DEVELOPMENT SO FAR. HOWEVER, MSAS DATA SHOWS AIRMASS IN MO AND SOUTHERN IA CONTINUES TO DESTABLIZE IN AFTERNOON HEATING. PROFILER DATA CONTINUES TO SHOW 50-60 KNOTS AT 300MB. MOISTURE CHANNEL DATA STILL SUGGEST MINOR WAVE ROTATING AROUND WESTERN WI LOW CENTER THAT WILL AID IN POSSIBLE STORM DEVELOPMENT THIS EVENING. 5KM WRF ALSO SUGGEST DEVELOPMENT, AS STILL FEEL LEFT OVER LOW LEVEL BOUNDARIES FROM MORNING CONVECTION WILL COMBINE WITH DIFFERENTIAL HEATING TO TRIGGER DEVELOPMENT. MODIFIED POPS FOR TONIGHT TO KEEP JUST CHANCE POPS OVER CWA, WITH THE BEST CHANCE IN THE NORTHWEST SECTION. WARM AND HUMID CONDITIONS WILL BE THE RULE ON FRIDAY, AS THE WARM SECTOR TAKES HOLD OF THE REGION. THE APPROACHING COLD FRONT WILL BE SIGNIFICANT ONE, AS BOTH THE GFS AND NAM ARE IN GOOD AGREEMENT OF A SURFACE LOW IN IA IN RESPONSE TO THE MAJOR UPPER LEVEL TROF MOVING ACROSS THE NORTHERN PLAINS. FOR CWA, EXPECT CONVECTIVE DEVELOPMENT IN IA FRIDAY, MOVING INTO THE ILX CWA DURING THE EVENING FRIDAY AND CROSSING THE AREA IN THE MORNING HOURS. I INCREASED THE POPS AND MODIFIED THE QPF WITH THIS SYSTEM COMING THROUGH. SEVERE POTENTIAL LOOKS FAVORABLE DUE TO THE STRENGTH OF THE UPPER LEVEL SYSTEM AND THE AMOUNT OF UNSTABLE AIR THAT WILL BE AVAILABLE. CAP OF WARM AIR AHEAD OF THE SYSTEM WILL AID IN KEEPING INSTABILITY PRIMED. .LONG TERM...SUNDAY THROUGH THURSDAY HIGH PRESSURE TO BUILD INTO MIDWEST BEHIND SATURDAY COLD FRONT. VERY LITTLE DIFFERENCE BETWEEN LONG RANGE GFS AND EUR OR UK MODELS. SIGNFICANT HIGH PRESSURE CENTER TO REACH SOUTHERN LAKE MICHIGAN BY TUESDAY/12Z...AND THEN MOVING OFF TO THE EAST SOUTHEAST. HAD TO LOWER MORNING LOW AND AFTERNOON HIGH TEMPS PLUS DEW POINT GRIDS FOR SUNDAY THROUGH WEDNESDAY...AS AIRMASS WITH HIGH CENTER IS COOLER AND DRIER...MATCHING GFS MOS AND NMC MANUAL PROG GUIDANCE. && .ILX WATCHES/WARNINGS/ADVISORIES... NONE. HARDIMAN/GOETSCH
