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 nearest sounding before it
Green Bay/Straub, WI (KGRB), launched 12:00Z, 6.6 hours before the alert went out and 93 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, Jun 28, 4:00 AM CDT, 9 hours 37 minutes before
AREA FORECAST DISCUSSION NATIONAL WEATHER SERVICE GREEN BAY WI 400 AM CDT WED JUN 28 2006 .SYNOPSIS...LARGE SCALE FLOW ACRS THE CONUS CURRENTLY HAS SEASONABLY STG RIDGE OVER THE INTERMOUNTAIN WEST...AND TROF OVER THE GREAT LAKES RGN. DEAMPLIFICATION AND SLGT PROGRESSION EXPECTED DURING THE NEXT FEW DAYS. THAT WL LEAD TO A SEASONABLY STG AND FAIRLY ZONAL FLOW ACRS THE NRN STATES BY THE WEEKEND. THE TREND BEYOND THAT SEEMED TO BE FOR AT LEAST SOME REAMPLIFICATION NEXT WK...WITH THE RIDGE STILL IN THE W AND A TROF IN THE E. A COUPLE DISTURBANCES DIGGING INTO THE ERN TROF WL BRING ISOLD-SCT CONVECTION THE NEXT 24 HRS. THEN PCPN CHCS WL DEPEND ON THE MVNT OF SHRTWVS AND FRONTAL SYSTEMS IN THE W/WNWLY UPR FLOW. TEMPS WL AVERAGE FAIRLY CLOSE TO SEASONAL NORMALS. .SHORT TERM...TDA/TNGT/THU. PCPN COVERAGE YDA WAS MORE LIMITED THAN EXPECTED...POSSIBLY BECAUSE STG SHRTWV DIGGING INTO THE RGN SLOWED AND DIDN/T REACH THE AREA UNTIL WELL AFTER PK HEATING. THE VORT WL WORK ACRS THE AREA THIS MORNING. ISOLD CONVECTION PERSISTED OVERNIGHT. THE SHRTWV WL SHIFT E THIS MORNING...AND SUBSIDENCE IN IT/S WAKE MAY LIMIT CONVECTION FOR A TIME. A SECOND WEAKER SHRTWV FCST TO ARRIVE THIS AFTN. SYSTEM IS APPARENT ON WV STLT IMAGERY...BUT IT AGAIN APPEARS TO BE MOVG SLOWER THAN PROGGED. EXPECT AN INCR IN THE CONVECTION DURING THE DAY. HOW MUCH WL DEPEND ON THE TIMING OF THE ARRIVAL OF THE SECOND SHRTWV. KEPT POPS IN SCT CATEGORY...AND HIGHEST IN THE E WHERE UPR TEMPS WL BE COOLER. ABOUT THE ERN 2/3 OF THE FCST AREA WAS IN THE SPC DY1 SLGT RISK OF SVR WX...AGAIN FOR HAIL. WL MENTION IN HWO BUT RISK SEEMED TO LOW TO JUSTIFY HAVING EXPLICIT SVR IN GRIDS/ZONES. PCPN SHOULD DIMINISH THIS EVENING...AND PROBABLY END IN THE NW. THE NAM KEPT A WK SFC LOW OVER NE WI INTO THU...AND GENERATED ENOUGH CONVERGENCE TO KICK OFF PCPN AGAIN THU AFTN. GFS ON THE OTHER HAND HAD SHARP SFC RIDGE ACRS THE AREA AND WAS DRY. WENT ALONG WITH THE GFS FOR NOW. EVEN IF THE NAM IS CORRECT...COVERAGE WOULD BE VERY LIMITED AND PROBABLY NOT WORTHY OF BUSTING UP A DRY FCST PERIOD. MIXED 850 MB TEMPS DOWN TO THE SFC FOR AFTN HIGHS. WENT WITH COOLER GFS MOS MINS FOR TNGT AS EXPECT AT LEAST SIG BREAKS TO ALLOW DECENT RADIATIONAL COOLING. .LONG TERM...THU NGT THRU NXT TUE. THE CONTINUED FCST CHALLENGE COMES IN TIMING OF PCPN THIS WEEKEND AND AMT OF WARMING PSBL. WEAK SFC HI BEGINS TO PULL AWAY THU NGT ALLOWING A RETURN FLOW TO DVLP OVR WI. THE LOW LVL JET WL BRING GULF MSTR INTO THE MIDWEST AND INTERACT WITH A WRMFNT STRETCHED FROM NEBRASKA TO SRN IL. ANY PCPN EXPECTED TO REMAIN ALONG AND JUST NORTH OF THE WRMFNT...THUS NO POPS ACROSS NE WI. THE SW WNDS WL HELP BRING MILDER AIR INTO WI WITH WARMER MIN TEMPS...ESP OVR NRN WI. MDLS CONT TO SEND A CDFNT INTO THE NRN PLAINS ON FRI WHILE LIFTING THE WRMFNT TOWARD THE WI/IL BORDER. THE GFS HAS NOW SLOWED THE ADVANCE OF THE CDFNT WHILE THE WRF IS NOW THE FASTEST (INTO NRN MN). EVEN THO THE MEAN FLOW WL HAVE DEAMPLIFIED BY FRI...STILL FEEL THE SLOWER APPROACH IS THE WAY TO GO WHICH HAS BEEN THE MORE CONSISTENT PLAY OVR THE PAST SEVERAL MDL RUNS. ENUF SUNSHINE WL COMBINE WITH SW WNDS AND WAA TO PRODUCE A WARM DAY OVR THE FCST AREA WITH A TOUCH OF HUMIDITY AS DEW PTS CLIMB TOWARD THE 60 DEG MARK. LOCATION OF THE CDFNT WL BE KEY TO PCPN CHCS FRI NGT AND MOST OF THE NEW 00Z MDLS (EXCEPT THE CANADIAN) HAVE SLOWED THE FNT/S ADVANCE A BIT. THERE WL BE A POTENTIAL FOR A SHRTWV TO MOV INTO THE WRN GREAT LKS RGN LTR FRI NGT SO THE INITIAL THOUGHT OF DELAYING POPS WAS PROMPTLY DROPPED. HAVE LEFT A SML CHC POP ACROSS NE WI...BUT DELAYED THAT POP TIL AFTER MIDNGT OVR E-CNTRL WI. CDFNT THEN EDGES INTO WI ON SAT. ENUF DAYTIME HEATING EXPECTED TO ALLOW FOR THE ATM TO DESTABILIZE WITH LIS FALLING BLO ZERO...CAPES RISING TO AROUND 1000 J/KG AND MODERATELY STEEP LAPSE RATES. PLENTY OF MSTR TO BE IN PLACE TO HELP FUEL TSTMS (PW VALUES AROUND 1.5 INCHES) WITH EXTRA LIFT PROVIDED BY THE RIGHT ENTRANCE RGN OF THE UPR JET. HAVE RAISED POPS SLIGHTLY...MORE TOWARD THE MED CHC POP RANGE. ANOTHER DAY IN THE UPR 70S/LWR 80S ANTICIPATED THO TEMPS WL BE DEPENDENT ON HOW FAST CLDS OVERSPREAD THE RGN. SLOWER MOVEMENT OF THE CDFNT HAS PROMPTED LEAVING A CHC OF EVENING SHWRS/TSTMS OVR THE SE HALF OF THE FCST AREA SAT NGT BEFORE DRYING CONDITIONS TAKE OVR. A WEAK BUBBLE OF HI PRES TO DRIFT OVR THE RGN ON SUNDAY SO HAVE KEPT THE DRY FCST GOING. LITTLE (IF ANY) COOLING TAKES PLACE BEHIND THE CDFNT...THUS ANOTHER WARM DAY APRS ON TAP. NOCTURNAL CONVECTION TO REMAIN NEAR STALLED CDFNT TO OUR SOUTH SUNDAY NGT SO PARTLY CLDY SKIES ANTICIPATED. EXTENDED MDLS CONT THEIR TREND OF REBUILDING THE WRN U.S. UPR RDG/ERN U.S. UPR TROF BY THE START OF THE WORK WEEK. THIS PLACES NE WI IN A NW FLOW AND SUSCEPTIBLE TO ANY SHRTWVS DROPPING SE THRU THE MEAN FLOW. GREAT DIFFICULTY TRYING TO TIME THESE INDIVIDUAL SHRTWVS AND PREFER TO PLAY CONTINUITY HERE BY KEEPING A SML CHC POP FOR MON. TUES FCST IS NOT BARGAIN EITHER AS THE UPR TROF TO BE LOCATED JUST TO OUR EAST BUT BNDRY LYR WNDS ARE FROM A DRY NORTHERLY DIR. SINCE MSTR AVAILABILITY STILL IN DOUBT THIS FAR OUT...HAVE OPTED TO KEEP TUE DRY FOR NOW. && .GRB WATCHES/WARNINGS/ADVISORIES... NONE. && SKOWRONSKI/KALLAS WEATHER.GOV/GREENBAY
