Did it verify
Not verified. The Iowa Environmental Mesonet's Cow found no qualifying storm report inside this flash flood 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
Springfield, MO (KSGF), launched 12:00Z, 11.1 hours before the alert went out and 46 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, Jan 12, 3:15 PM CST, 1 hour 52 minutes before
AREA FORECAST DISCUSSION NATIONAL WEATHER SERVICE SPRINGFIELD MO 315 PM CST WED JAN 12 2005 .DISCUSSION... STORMS WERE INTENSIFYING ACROSS WESTERN MISSOURI EARLY THIS AFTERNOON. 18Z SPECIAL SOUNDING DEPICTED CAPPING INVERSION NEAR 800 MB BUT WAS BEING OVERCOME BY FORCING AHEAD OF A FRONT THAT STRETCHED FROM NORTHWEST MISSOURI BACK TO NORTHWEST OKLAHOMA. WATER VAPOR IMAGERY DEPICTED A POTENT TROUGH TRACKING OUT OF THE SOUTHERN ROCKIES. INCREASING LIFT IN ADVANCE OF THIS SYSTEM WILL SUPPORT ADDITIONAL THUNDERSTORM DEVELOPMENT THROUGH THE EVENING. ALTHOUGH INSTABILITY IS MODEST WIND PROFILES ARE IMPRESSIVE WITH 0-6KM SHEAR NEAR 60 KTS. SEVERE WIND GUSTS APPEARS THE GREATEST SEVERE WEATHER RISK IN BOWING SEGMENTS. AN ISOLATED TORNADO STILL CANNOT BE RULED OUT GIVEN THE 0-1 KM AND 0-3 KM HELICITIES NEAR 300. STORMS WILL TRANSLATE ACROSS THE FORECAST DURING THE EVENING AND LIKELY EVOLVE IN A SQUALL LINE. THE FLOODING THREAT WILL CONTINUE AS WELL WITH PRECIPITABLE WATER VALUES OVER AN INCH SUPPORT INTENSE RAINFALL RATES. THE STORM SYSTEM WILL TRACK ACROSS SOUTHERN MISSOURI AND NORTHERN ARKANSAS LATE TONIGHT AND EARLY THURSDAY. 18Z MODEL RUN OF THE ETA SUGGEST THAT A DEFORMATION ZONE MAY SET UP NORTH OF THE TRACK OF THE VORTICITY MAXIMUM. THIS MAY BRING A PERIOD OF LIGHT SNOW TO PORTIONS OF THE AREA LATE TONIGHT AND THURSDAY MORNING AS MUCH COLDER AIR SURGES INTO THE AREA. A COLD AND GENERALLY DRY WEATHER PATTERN WILL SET UP FROM FRIDAY INTO EARLY NEXT WEEK. HOWEVER A PASSING DISTURBANCE MAY BRING SOME LIGHT SNOW ON SUNDAY. FOSTER && .AVIATION... SHOWERS AND THUNDERSTORMS WILL CONTINUE TO INCREASE ACROSS FAR SOUTHEAST KANSAS AND SOUTHWEST MISSOURI THROUGH EARLY THIS EVENING. MVFR CONDITIONS WILL PREVAIL WITH LOCALIZED IFR CONDITIONS IN STORMS. A COLD FRONT WILL PUSH ACROSS THE AREA MID TO LATE EVENING WITH MODERATE NORTHWEST WINDS IN THE WAKE OF THE FRONT TONIGHT. STRATUS MAY LINGER INTO THURSDAY MORNING BUT A GENERALLY IMPROVING TREND CAN BE EXPECTED DURING THE DAY.

WESTERN SECTIONS OF THE OUTLOOK AREA. THE STORMS WILL QUICKLY MOVE
EAST THROUGH THE MISSOURI OZARKS THIS EVENING. THE RISK OF SEVERE
WEATHER SHOULD END IN EASTERN SECTIONS OF THE OUTLOOK AREA BY

A POTENT STORM SYSTEM WILL QUICKLY MOVE EAST INTO EASTERN KANSAS
AND NORTHEAST OKLAHOMA THIS AFTERNOON. THIS SYSTEM WILL INTERACT
WITH A SPRING LIKE AIRMASS ACROSS THE OUTLOOK AREA TO PRODUCE THE
POTENTIAL OF SEVERE STORMS. LIMITED INSTABILITY DUE TO CLOUD COVER

LIKELY INITIATE POTENTIALLY SEVERE THUNDERSTORM DEVELOPMENT LATER
THIS AFTERNOON AND EARLY EVENING. THE AVAILABLE INSTABILITY
COMBINED WITH STRONG WIND FIELDS WILL SUPPORT THE DEVELOPMENT OF
STRONG TO SEVERE STORMS. THE STORMS ARE EXPECTED TO EVOLVE INTO A
SQUALL LINE BY EARLY EVENING...AND MOVE ACROSS THE MISSOURI OZARKS
DURING THE EVENING HOURS. ISOLATED SUPERCELL THUNDERSTORMS AND
TORNADOES MAY BE EMBEDDED WITHIN THE LINE OF STORMS.
THE STORMS WILL PRODUCE HEAVY RAINFALL WHICH COULD LEAD TO
FLOODING. A QUICK ONE TO TWO INCHES OF RAINFALL WILL OCCUR IN SOME
AREAS. WITH AN ALREADY SATURATED GROUND...ANY HEAVY RAIN WILL
QUICKLY TURN INTO EXCESS RUNOFF WHICH COULD RESULT IN FLASH
FLOODING.
.DAYS TWO THROUGH SEVEN...THURSDAY THROUGH TUESDAY.
COLD WEATHER WITH WIND CHILL VALUES OF AROUND ZERO WILL OCCUR OVER
THE UPCOMING WEEKEND AS ARCTIC AIR SURGES SOUTH OVER THE MID
SECTION OF THE COUNTRY. A WEAK DISTURBANCE MAY PRODUCE SOME LIGHT
SNOW ON SUNDAY.
.SPOTTER INFORMATION STATEMENT...
SPOTTER ACTIVATION MAY BE REQUIRED AFTER 4 PM...AND WILL BE MORE
LIKELY NEEDED DURING THE LATE AFTERNOON AND EARLY EVENING HOURS.
SPOTTERS AND EMERGENCY MANAGEMENT ARE ALSO ENCOURAGED TO RELAY
REPORTS OF FLOODING.
