Did it verify
Not verified. The Iowa Environmental Mesonet's Cow found no qualifying storm report inside this tornado 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.

What forecasters said that day
The local office's own words before this tornado warning went out, as it sent them, from the Iowa Environmental Mesonet's archive of National Weather Service text.
NWS Fort Worth, TX wrote its last area forecast discussion before this tornado warning went out at May 9, 10:50 PM CDT, 29 minutes earlier.
Area forecast discussion, May 9, 10:50 PM CDT, 29 minutes before
AREA FORECAST DISCUSSION...UPDATED NATIONAL WEATHER SERVICE FORT WORTH TX 1050 PM CDT TUE MAY 9 2006 .UPDATE... UPDATE FOR ANTICIPATED SVR STORM WATCH #324 ALONG THE RED RIVER VALLEY AND DOWN THROUGH COLLIN...HUNT AND DELTA COUNTIES THROUGH 6 AM CDT (SEE ADVISORY LINE BELOW). UPDATES ON THE WAY. && .PREV DISCUSSION... /ISSUED 1000 PM CDT TUE MAY 9 2006/ UPDATE... SFC DRYLINE RETREATING BACK WWW...ESPECIALLY S OF I-20 CORRIDOR AND CAP STARTING TO RE-ESTABLISH OVER SRN COUNTIES WHERE SVR STORM WATCH #322 WAS IN EFFECT. WITH NO SFC FOCUS AND BEST MID LVL FLOW UP AROUND RED RIVER...FELT AREAS WACO/SWD TO LAMPASAS AND TEMPLE SHOULD BE IN GOOD SHAPE THE REST OF THE NIGHT...BUT STILL MUGGY AND WARM OVERNIGHT. WCN ALREADY ISSUED TO CANCEL SVR STORM WATCH #322 DOWN THAT WAY. UPDATES OUT SHORTLY. NEXT S/W MOVING ACROSS NRN TX PANHANDLE/WRN OK MAY RESULT IN ANOTHER WATCH OVER RED RIVER COUNTIES OVERNIGHT PER DISCUSSION WITH SPC...HOWEVER CAP STRENGTH STILL AN ISSUE...AS IS SWD EXTENT EXPECTED. STAY TUNED. PREV DISCUSSION... /ISSUED 920 PM CDT TUE MAY 9 2006/ UPDATE... PRE-FRONTAL TROUGH/DRYLINE EXTENDING SWWD FROM STORMS BETWEEN MCKINNEY AND SHERMAN. SEEMS ANOTHER POSSIBLE HEAT-BURST OCCURRED IN NRN COLLIN COUNTY AS MID LVL LAPSE RATES ARE IMPRESSIVE (IN 8-9 DEG C/KM CATEGORY). ML CAPES EARLIER PRESSING 6000 J/KG WITH 35-40 KT 0-6KM BULK SHEAR EAST OF THE BOUNDARY WITH LOW LVL DEW PTS VERY GULF COAST-LIKE (AROUND 75 DEG F)...WHICH IS MAKING THINGS ACROSS THE ERN 1/2 OF N TX VERY VERY MUGGY. HAVE RAISED POPS FROM DALLAS N-E TO SHERMAN...PARIS AND TERRELL WITH SEWD PROGRESSION AND SOME SEVERE WX/HEAVY RAIN LIKELY AS MODERATE RISK (SEE FTWHWOFWD AND SWODY1) IS NOW OUT THROUGH LATE EVENING FOR THIS AREA. ITS HARD TO SAY WHAT WILL HAPPEN AFTER MIDNIGHT...BUT GENERALLY LEFT HIGHEST POPS ACROSS NE 1/3 OF N TX WITH MORE UPSTREAM ACTIVITY OVER THE TX PANHANDLE/WRN OK MVG E/SEWD AS WELL...AS AREA REMAINS IN L/W SPLIT-FLOW ALOFT WITH A S/W MOVING OUT OF THE SRN ROCKIES. HAVE VERY LOW OR LITTLE POPS WSW COUNTIES WITH UNCERTAINTY OF WHAT DRYLINE WILL DO AND ARRIVAL OF FRONT. UPDATE ALREADY OUT. OTHERWISE...MADE TREND ADJUSTMENTS WITH ALL ELEMENTS IN MIND FOR SKY COVER...WINDS...AND DEW PTS/RH. PREV DISCUSSION... /ISSUED 658 PM CDT TUE MAY 9 2006/ UPDATE... HAVE UPDATED THE ZFPFWD TO INCLUDE SEVERE THUNDERSTORM WATCH 322 THROUGH 1200 AM CDT...FOR THE AREA AROUND WACO AND POINTS SOUTHWARD. 65/DD AVIATION... CONVECTIVE TRENDS REMAIN THE MOST SIGNIFICANT CONCERN FOR THIS FORECAST. VFR CONDITIONS WILL PREVAIL THROUGH EARLY WEDNESDAY MORNING ACROSS THE METROPLEX SITES AND MOST LIKELY AT KACT...DESPITE INCREASING ANVIL DEBRIS RESULTING IN HIGH-LEVEL CIGS THROUGH THE EVENING. HOWEVER...CONVECTIVE CELL BETWEEN KAQO-KBMQ MAY CONTINUE TO DEVELOP NORTHEASTWARD TOWARD KACT...AND HAVE INCLUDED VCTS/CB THROUGH 10/08Z. MEANWHILE...COLD FRONT WILL PUSH SLOWLY SOUTHWARD ACROSS THE RED RIVER THROUGH WEDNESDAY MORNING...BUT EARLY INDICATIONS ARE THAT HIGHER CHANCES FOR A COMPLEX OF ORGANIZED THUNDERSTORMS WILL REMAIN NORTHEAST OF THE METROPLEX SITES. THUS...WILL INCLUDE NO MENTION OF TSRA IN METROPLEX TAFS AT THIS TIME...BUT WILL MONITOR CLOSELY THROUGH THE EVENING. STRONG LOW-LEVEL JET WILL ADVECT STRATUS NORTHWARD AHEAD OF COLD FRONT ONCE AGAIN ON WEDNESDAY MORNING...BUT FEEL THAT BULK OF MVFR CIGS WILL OCCUR AT KACT. DISCREPANCIES IN FRONTAL TIMING CONTINUE IN MODEL GUIDANCE...BUT EXPECT WIND SHIFT AROUND 10/12Z FOR THE METROPLEX SITES AND AROUND 10/15Z FOR KACT. A NARROW BAND OF POSTFRONTAL MVFR STRATUS WILL LIKELY DEVELOP AND MOVE SOUTHWARD DURING THE DAY ON WEDNESDAY...WITH CIGS LIFTING/SCATTERING THROUGH THE AFTERNOON. 65/DD DISCUSSION... DIFFICULT FORECAST DUE TO THE UNCERTAINTIES OF THE CAP STRENGTH OVER THE REGION. CAP IS HOLDING SO FAR...AND THERE IS AN APPARENT LACK OF ANY STRONG SYNOPTIC SCALE FORCING THAT WOULD CAUSE THE CAP TO LIFT AND ERODE ACROSS NORTH TEXAS. CAPES ARE EXTREMELY HIGH AND ARE CURRENTLY RUNNING NEAR 6000 J/KG ALONG THE I-35 CORRIDOR. HOWEVER...BOUNDARY LAYER FORCING IS WEAK...AND THE DRY LINE IS NOT WELL DEFINED WHICH IS MITIGATING ANY LOCALIZED FORCING. IF A SHORTWAVE...EVEN A WEAK ONE...APPROACHES THE AREA DURING THE NEXT COUPLE HOURS...STORMS WILL INITIATE AND QUICKLY GO SEVERE. AT THE TIME OF THIS WRITING...TCU IS NOTED OUTSIDE OUR WINDOW IN FORT WORTH...AND VIS SATELLITE INDICATES THAT THE LAMPASAS AREA SOUTHWARD IS ALSO SHOWING SIGNS OF CUMULIFORM BUILD UP. BOUNDARY LAYER MOISTURE IS RATHER THIN...AND AGAIN WITHOUT ANY LARGER SCALE FORCING...RISING PARCELS ARE GOING TO ENTRAIN DRY AIR AND LOSE THEIR BUOYANCY BEFORE REACHING THE LFC. POPS TONIGHT MIGHT BE A LITTLE ON THE HIGH SIDE OVER THE CENTRAL CWA...BUT BECAUSE OF THE POTENTIAL FOR SIGNIFICANT SEVERE WEATHER TO OCCUR...FEEL IT IS BEST TO ERR ON THE SIDE OF CAUTION. IF NOTHING BREAKS THE CAP BY 6 OR 7 PM MOST OF THE CWA WILL BE IN THE CLEAR. THE EXCEPTION WILL BE THE NORTHEASTERN ZONES WHERE ACTIVITY DEVELOPING IN OKLAHOMA WILL ORGANIZE INTO A SQUALL LINE OR MCS ALONG THE FRONT AND MOVE SOUTHEAST AND CLIP THIS REGION LATER THIS EVENING. HAVE KEPT LOW POPS IN THE MORNING HOURS FOR LINGERING ELEVATED CONVECTION BEHIND THE FRONT. FRONT WILL PUSH THROUGH A LITTLE LATER THAN WAS EXPECTED AT THIS TIME YESTERDAY. BREEZY NORTHERLY WINDS AND COOLER TEMPERATURES WILL INFILTRATE THE REGION BEHIND THE FRONT...WITH VERY PLEASANT WEATHER EXPECTED THROUGH FRIDAY. UPPER LEVEL PATTERN WILL TRANSITION AND BRING NORTHWEST FLOW ALOFT TO THE REGION. ONCE THE MOISTURE RETURNS ON SATURDAY...SO WILL THE CHANCES OF RAIN. SOME STORMS MAY BE SEVERE SAT NIGHT THROUGH MONDAY MORNING...AND EXACT TIMING OF POSSIBLE MCS EVENTS COMING DOWN FROM THE HIGH PLAINS IS IN QUESTION AT THIS STAGE. THE BEST CHANCE LOOKS LIKE SUNDAY RIGHT NOW. ANOTHER FRONT SHOULD MOVE THROUGH THE AREA MONDAY WITH CONTINUED NEAR NORMAL TEMPS. TR.92 FWD WATCHES/WARNINGS/ADVISORIES...
