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, Apr 1, 7:40 PM CST, 4 hours 26 minutes before

AREA FORECAST DISCUSSION
NATIONAL WEATHER SERVICE WICHITA KS
740 PM CST SAT APR 1 2006

.MESOSCALE UPDATE...
MCS HAS ORGANIZED IN A NORTH TO SOUTH AXIS FROM CENTRAL THROUGH
SOUTH CENTRAL KS EARLY THIS EVENING. AS LOW-LEVEL JET CONTINUES TO
DEVELOP/INTENSIFY THIS EVENING...LOW-LEVEL SHEAR WILL STRENGTHEN
WITH 0-1 KM SRH ALREADY AT 150-200 M2/S2. OUR EXPECTATIONS ARE THAT
THIS MCS WILL CONTINUE TO PROGRESS SLOWLY EASTWARD ACROSS
CENTRAL/SOUTH CENTRAL KS THIS EVENING. FOR THE NEXT 1-3
HRS...ANTICIPATING A FEW SUPERCELL STRUCTURES AND POSSIBLE BOW ECHO
CONFIGURATIONS. DAMAGING WIND GUSTS...LARGE HAIL AND A TORNADO OR
TWO REMAIN POSSIBLE IN THESE AREAS.

CARUSO

.MESOSCALE UPDATE.../605 PM CST SAT APR 1 2006/
RUC MODEL CONTINUES TO SHOW BEST INSTABILITY DEVELOPING OVER SOUTH
CENTRAL KS OVER THE NEXT COUPLE HRS WITH CAPES OF 1200-1600 J/KG.
0-1 KM HELICITY WILL INCREASE TO 100-200 M2/S2. RUC AND SURFACE
ANALYSIS DATA SUGGESTS STRONGEST LOW-LEVEL MOISTURE CONVERGENCE IN
THIS AREA AS WELL. THEREFORE...BEST POTENTIAL FOR A DISCRETE
SUPERCELL APPEARS ALONG AND SOUTHWEST OF A LINE FROM GREAT BEND TO
NEWTON TO ARKANSAS CITY OVER THE NEXT FEW HOURS.

CARUSO

.PREVIOUS DISCUSSION.../311 PM CST SAT APR 1 2006/

FORECAST CONCERNS FOR THIS PACKAGE WILL DEAL WITH SEVERE WEATHER
CHANCES FOR TONIGHT...POSSIBLE WIND ADVISORY FOR CENTRAL KANSAS
TOMORROW FOLLOWED BY ANOTHER CHANCE OF CONVECTION FOR MIDDLE OF NEXT
WEEK.

TONIGHT
THUNDERSTORMS ARE DEVELOPING RAPIDLY OVER WESTERN SECTIONS OF KANSAS
SOUTHWARD INTO THE TEXAS PANHANDLE ALONG A DRY-LINE. WE ARE STILL
EXPECTING THIS ACTIVITY TO MOVE INTO CENTRAL/SOUTH CENTRAL KANSAS BY
THIS EVENING...HOWEVER LATEST SURFACE ANALYSIS SHOWS THE CAP
WEAKENING ACROSS SOUTHERN KANSAS ALONG A WARM FRONT WHICH CURRENTLY
STRETCHES FROM NORTHEAST OKLAHOMA THROUGH KBVO TOWARDS KWLD. THIS
BOUNDARY IS EXPECTED TO MIGRATE NORTHWARD INTO SOUTHERN KANSAS AND
WILL HAVE TO BE WATCH VERY CLOSELY AS LOW LEVEL HELICITY WILL BE
ENHANCED...THUS INCREASING THE TORNADO POTENTIAL FOR ANY STORMS THAT
ENCOUNTER IT. ADDITIONAL THUNDERSTORMS COULD INITIATE ALONG THIS
BOUNDARY BY LATER THIS AFTERNOON. THE STORMS ARE EXPECTED TO EVOLVE
INTO A ORGANIZED LINE WHICH WILL RACE EAST ACROSS THE STATE WITH
LARGE HAIL AND DAMAGING WINDS.

SUN-MON
CURRENT WATER VAPOR IMAGERY SHOWS ANOTHER POTENT SHORT WAVE NOW
MOVING OVER IDAHO WHICH WILL ROTATE THROUGH THE MAIN TROUGH AXIS ON
SUNDAY. VERY COLD AIR ALOFT ASSOCIATED WITH THIS IMPULSE COULD SPARK
OFF SOME INSTABILITY SHOWERS/EMBEDDED THUNDERSTORMS FOR SOME OF OUR
NORTHEAST COUNTIES SUNDAY AFTERNOON. ALL THE PRECIP ACTIVITY SHOULD
SHIFT EAST OF THE AREA BY SUNDAY EVENING. A WIND ADVISORY WILL
LIKELY BE NEEDED FOR MUCH OF CENTRAL KANSAS TOMORROW...AS STEEP
1000-850MB LAPSE RATES SUGGEST MIXING AT A PREMIUM ALONG WITH A
TIGHT PRESSURE GRADIENT FROM SURFACE LOW. WE WILL LET NIGHT SHIFT
EVALUATE THIS FURTHER. COOLER TEMPS AND LIGHTER WINDS WILL BE ON TAP
FOR MONDAY AS SURFACE HIGH PRESSURE BUILDS INTO THE AREA...THUS
MAKING FOR A VERY PLEASANT DAY.

TUES
SURFACE HIGH PRESSURE WILL SHIFT EAST INTO THE MISSISSIPPI VALLEY
REGION WITH SOUTHERLY WINDS RETURNING THE REGION...AS A WARM FRONT
LIFTS NORTHWARD INTO OKLAHOMA. TEMPS SHOULD WARM ABOUT 5 DEGREES OR
SO FROM MONDAYS HIGHS. MODELS STILL LATCHING ON TO A SHORT WAVE
MOVING ACROSS THE AREA NORTH OF THE WARM FRONT TUESDAY NIGHT. MODEST
850-700MB THETA E ADVECTION IN CONJUNCTION WITH THIS IMPULSE
SUPPORTS OUR GOING CHANCES OF PRECIP. COULD SEE CHANCES BOOSTED BY
LATER SHIFTS IF SIGNAL REMAINS CONSISTENT.

EXTENDED: WED-SAT
TEMPS WILL REMAIN WARM AND ABOVE NORMAL WITH A DECENT CHANCE OF
ACTIVE WEATHER FOR WEDNESDAY INTO THURSDAY...FOLLOWED BY A SLIGHT
COOL DOWN FOR FRIDAY AND SATURDAY.

NO BIG CHANGES WERE MADE TO THIS EXTENDED PERIOD AS MEDIUM RANGE
MODELS STILL SHOW VERY GOOD AGREEMENT. RICH GULF MOISTURE WILL
CONTINUE TO STREAM NORTHWARD INTO THE REGION FOR WEDNESDAY AS UPPER
TROUGH APPROACHES FROM THE WEST...THUS SETTING THE STAGE FOR ANOTHER
POSSIBLE EPISODE OF SEVERE WEATHER. OTHERWISE...PRECIP CHANCES
SHOULD TAPER OFF FOR THURSDAY AS DRIER AIR PUSHES IN FROM THE WEST.
MEANWHILE...STRONG CONFLUENT FLOW OVER THE GREAT LAKES LOOKS TO
SLOW DOWN THE EASTWARD PROGRESSION OF UPPER LOW FOR FRIDAY...WHICH
COULD RESULT IN VERTICAL STACKING OF THE SYSTEM. ONCE THE SYSTEM
FILLS AND BECOMES ABSORBED BY THE CONFLUENT FLOW...SLIGHTLY COOLER
AIR WILL SINK SOUTHWARD INTO KANSAS FOR FRIDAY/SATURDAY.
