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.

AREA FORECAST DISCUSSION...UPDATED NATIONAL WEATHER SERVICE PEACHTREE CITY GA 540 AM EDT MON APR 3 2006 .SHORT TERM...(TODAY THROUGH WEDNESDAY) CURRENT SATELLITE LOOP SHOWS AN ENHANCED V SHAPED MOISTURE PLUME ASSOCIATED WITH FRONTAL SYSTEM MOVING THROUGH THE MID MS/TN/OH VALLEYS. CURRENTLY THERE IS A LINE OF SHRA/TSRA ORIENTED SW TO NE MOVING E THROUGH TN. CURRENT WATCH BOXES COVER MOST OF THE STATE OF TN AND NORTHERN AL AND N GA. THE BULK OF THE SEVERE WX SEEMS TO BE MOVING DUE E AND SHOULD STAY N OF THE GA BORDER. THERE ARE SOME STORMS BACK ACROSS NORTHERN MS/AL THAT MAY MAKE THERE WAY INTO GA. WOULD NOT BE A SURPRISE TO SEE A FEW SEVERE STORMS AS IT MOVES INTO NW GA...BUT SHOULD CALM DOWN AFTER THAT. MODELS SHOWING THE POSSIBILITY OF A FAVORABLE JET CONFIGURATION AND PVA ALONG WITH STRONG WINDS ALOFT HOWEVER...WITH THE LACK OF SURFACE HEATING INSTABILITY WILL BE LIMITED WITH CAPES BELOW 1000 AND LIS AROUND -1 TO -3. LOOKS LIKE THE BEST CHANCE FOR FOR SEVER WX ACROSS THE STATE WILL BE THIS AFTERNOON AS THE SYSTEM EXITS THE AREA. THE BIG FACTOR WILL BE IF THERE WILL BE ENOUGH MOISTURE LEFT AND WILL THERE BE ENOUGH SUNSHINE TO PRODUCE SOME SURFACE INSTABILITY AT HE SAME TIME. AS THIS SYSTEM EXITS THE AREA A VERY TIGHT GRADIENTS SETS UP BEHIND IT SO WILL ISSUE WIND ADVISORY FOR THE ENTIRE CWA FROM 18 TO 00Z AND CONTINUE THE ADVISORY THROUGH 03Z FOR NE GA.
