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.

What forecasters said that day
The local office's own words before this severe thunderstorm warning went out, as it sent them, from the Iowa Environmental Mesonet's archive of National Weather Service text.
NWS Louisville, KY wrote its last area forecast discussion before this severe thunderstorm warning went out at Jan 2, 11:47 AM EST, 2 hours 15 minutes earlier.
Area forecast discussion, Jan 2, 11:47 AM EST, 2 hours 15 minutes before
AREA FORECAST DISCUSSION UPDATE NATIONAL WEATHER SERVICE LOUISVILLE KY 1147 AM EST MON JAN 2 2006 ...SEVERE WX THREAT THROUGH EARLY EVENING... .EARLY AFTERNOON UPDATE... UPDATED ZONES TO ADD SEVERE THUNDERSTORM WATCH AND SEVERE WORDING IN FORECAST. THUNDERSTORMS ARE DEVELOPING RAPIDLY AHEAD OF A LINE OF STRONG STORMS. THESE STORMS WILL CONTINUE TO DEVELOP IN VERY UNSTABLE AIR ACROSS CENTRAL KENTUCKY. STORMS WILL REACH BOWLING GREEN BEFORE 1 PM CST...LOUISVILLE BETWEEN 2 AND 3 PM EST AND LEXINGTON AFTER 4 PM EST. OTHERWISE NO CHANGES TO FORECAST. LATE MORNING UPDATE... QUICK UPDATE TO RAISE HIGH TEMPERATURES AND ADJUST TIMING OF THUNDERSTORMS. LINE OF THUNDERSTORMS IS MOVING ACROSS WESTERN KENTUCKY AND WILL BE MOVING INTO LMK FAR WESTERN COUNTIES BETWEEN 17Z AND 18Z. LINE OF STORMS CONTINUES TO HOLD TOGETHER WITH STRONG WARMING AHEAD OF THE LINE. TEMPERATURES ARE ALREADY NEAR OR AT RECORD HIGHS FOR THIS DATE. AIR HAS BECOME VERY UNSTABLE WITH SURFACE BASED LIS --6 TO -8 AHEAD OF THE LINE. EXPECT LINE OF STRONG/SEVERE STORMS TO CONTINUE TRACKING TO THE EAST REACHING INTERSTATE 65 CORRIDOR MID AFTERNOON AND INTERSTATE 75 LATE AFTERNOON TO EARLY EVENING. HAVE MADE MINOR ADJUSTMENTS TO TO TIMING ON GRIDS TO REFLECT THIS. REST OF FORECAST APPEARS ON TRACK. SCHOLZ PREVIOUS DISCUSSIONS... EARLY AM UPDATE... BULK OF THE INITIAL WARM ADVECTION PCPN HAS EXITED THE FCST AREA AS OF 11 UTC. STILL SOME RESIDUAL -TSRA WILL REMAIN POSSIBLE EARLY THIS MORNING AHEAD OF APPROACHING MID-LEVEL DRY SLOT. WILL LOWER POPS FOR THE MORNING HOURS INTO THE CHANCE/SCATTERED CATEGORY. BASED ON MSAS LIFTED INDEX FIELDS...INSTABILITY OVER THE SWRN 1/2 OF THE CWA HAS BECOME SFC BASED...THOUGH MAGNITUDES ARE RATHER WEAK. BEST INSTABILITY AXIS IS CLOSER TO N-S ORIENTED TROF AXIS FROM ERN MO INTO ARKANSAS. CLUSTER OF SEVERE AND POSSIBLY TORNADIC STORMS FORMED OVERNIGHT IN THE STL AREA CLOSE TO THE SFC LOW AND AT THE NOSE OF THIS INSTABILITY AXIS. INSTABILITY AXIS AND SFC TROF STILL FORECAST TO MIGRATE EWD...ALLOWING FOR A THREAT OF CONVECTIVE REDEVELOPMENT OVER THE CWA THIS AFTN. SVR STORMS STILL A GOOD POSSIBILITY AREA WIDE THIS AFTN (SEE PREV DISC)...BUT BASED ON WHATS HAPPENED NEAR STL...AM CONCERNED ABOUT POTENTIAL FOR ISLTD TORNADO NEAR THE SFC LOW TRACK...AS IT HEADS EWD INTO PARTS OF SRN INDIANA BY 21/00 UTC. HOWEVER THE SFC LOW IS EXPECTED TO FILL SOMEWHAT BY THEN...ALLOWING LOW LEVEL WIND FIELDS TO LESSEN...PERHAPS DIMINISHING TORNADO POTENTIAL THERE. SOMETHING WELL CONTINUE TO WATCH AS THE DAY PROGRESSES. SINCE WELL SEE A PERIOD OF LITTLE/NO PCPN TODAY...AND SINCE TEMPERATURES ARE ALREADY NEAR FCST HIGHS IN SRN KY...WILL INCREASE MAX TEMPS FOR MOST AREAS...INTO THE LOWER 70S NEAR THE KY/TN LINE. SCT-BKN LOW CLOUDS WILL LIKELY PERSIST...BUT PROBABLY NOT ENOUGH TO COUNTER MAGNITUDE OF WARM ADVECTION. CS .SHORT TERM (TODAY-TONIGHT)... PRONOUNCED UPPER WAVE APPROACHING THE CWA EARLY THIS MONDAY MORNING. SYSTEM IS PROGRESSING SLOWER THAN MODEL DATA INDICATED 24 HOURS AGO. CLUSTERS OF TSRA HAVE FINALLY DEVELOPED OVER THE VICINITY AS OF 07 UTC. THIS ACTIVITY IN ASSOC WITH THE NOSE OF STRENGTHENING LLJ...WHICH IS FCST TO TRANSLATE EWD ACROSS THE LMK CWA BETWEEN NOW AND 12 UTC. SO WE EXPECT THE THREAT FOR TSRA TO ALSO CONTINUE EASTWARD DURING THE PRE-DAWN HOURS. ORGANIZED CONVECTION A GOOD POSSIBILITY GIVEN THE ENVIRONMENTAL SHEAR...THINKING THE MAIN THREAT WOULD BE ELEVATED HAILERS THROUGH 12 UTC. ALSO...AS EVIDENCED EARLIER ON PAH RADAR...STORMS WILL HAVE A TENDENCY TO BACKBUILD TO THE SW GIVEN THE WIND FIELDS...SO SOME SPOTS OF HEAVY RAIN ARE POSSIBLE. WELCOME TO JANUARY BULK OF THIS PCPN SHOULD MOVE N/E OF THE LMK CWA AFTER 12-15 UTC OR SO THIS MORNING AS MID-LEVEL DRY SLOT OVERSPREADS THE CWA. BY 18-21 UTC...SFC LOW FCST TO MOVE INTO IL/IN BORDER REGION...WITH TROF AXIS STRETCHING DOWN INTO MIDDLE TN. ALONG THIS AXIS...MODEST SFC BASED INSTABILITY EXPECTED TO FORM...THEREFORE WE THINK ANOTHER ROUND OF TSRA SHOULD COMMENCE. WITH DRY SLOT ALOFT...THIS COULD PROMOTE COLD POOL GENERATION WITH DAMAGING WIND POTENTIAL ALONG WITH LARGE HAIL. ISLTD TORNADO POSSIBLE ACROSS PORTIONS OF THE SE CWA...WHERE 1KM HELICITIES FCST TO BE RATHER HIGH THIS AFTN. THREAT FOR CONVECTION SHOULD VACATE THE CWA SOMETIME BETWEEN 00 AND 03 UTC THIS EVENING...THOUGH IT COULD EXIT QUICKER AS MODELS SOMETIMES UNDERESTIMATE ORGANIZED STORM VELOCITIES. BOTH GFS/NAM MOS INDICATE FAIRLY HIGH POPS CONTINUING AFTER 00 UTC. I BELIEVE THIS IS CENTERED AROUND A SECONDARY TROF/FRONT DROPPING DOWN INTO THE CWA TONIGHT AS INDICATED BY THE NAM. WILL CONTINUE ONGOING FCST OF SHOWERS LIKELY TONIGHT. NAM BUFKIT SHOWING POTENTIAL FOR LOW STRATUS BY 12 UTC TUESDAY. REGARDING TEMPERATURES...NEAR RECORD VALUES LIKELY TODAY ASSUMING WE GET A BREAK IN THE PRECIPITATION. SOUTHERLIES COULD ALSO GET A LITTLE GUSTY IN THE WARM SECTOR TODAY. CS .LONG TERM (TUESDAY-SUNDAY)... TUESDAY THROUGH WEDNESDAY... VERTICALLY STACKED UPPER LEVEL AND SURFACE LOW WILL MOVE SOUTHEAST ACROSS THE SOUTHERN APPALACHIANS TUESDAY. LIGHT RAIN AND DRIZZLE TUESDAY MORNING SHOULD END DURING THE DAY...HOWEVER...NORTH WINDS AND REMAINING LOW LEVEL MOISTURE WILL KEEP LOW CLOUDS LOCKED IN MUCH OF THE DAY. THE AIR BEHIND THIS UPPER LOW IS NOT COLD AT ALL...SO TEMPERATURES TUESDAY SHOULD STILL RISE ABOVE SEASONAL VALUES...WITH TEMPERATURES IN THE MID TO UPPER 40S LIKELY. FOR HIGHS TUESDAY...WENT WITH COOLER ETA OVER THE GFS. FEEL THAT GFS FAILS TO RESOLVE COOLER AIR AT LOW LEVELS IN THE FACE OF NORTH WINDS. A RIDGE OF HIGH PRESSURE MOVES OVERHEAD TUESDAY NIGHT AS THE LOWER OHIO VALLEY WILL BE BETWEEN SYSTEMS. WINDS WILL LESSEN. LOW CLOUDS AND TEMPERATURES WILL BE A CHALLENGE TUESDAY NIGHT. WITH BOUNDARY LEVEL WINDS BECOMING LIGHT...MOISTURE AND LOW CLOUDS MAY CONTINUE THROUGH THE NIGHTTIME HOURS. SOUTH WINDS WILL INCREASE WEDNESDAY AFTERNOON AHEAD OF A TROUGH THAT WILL EXTEND SOUTHWARD FROM LOW PRESSURE MOVING TOWARDS THE GREAT LAKES. THIS SYSTEM WILL MOVE FARTHER NORTH AND WILL HAVE MUCH LESS MOISTURE AVAILABLE THAN TODAYS SYSTEM. WILL HOLD OFF ON PRECIP CHANCES UNTIL WEDNESDAY NIGHT...WHEN FRONTAL PASSAGE MAY BRING A FEW LIGHT SHOWERS OR FLURRIES. THURSDAY THROUGH SUNDAY. UPPER AIR PATTERN WILL AMPLIFY SIGNIFICANTLY ACROSS THE CONUS BEGINNING THURSDAY AS A WESTERN RIDGE BUILDS WHILE A DEEP FULL LATITUDE TROUGH DEVELOPS ACROSS THE EASTERN STATES. ON THURSDAY...A STRENGTHING NORTH/SOUTH UPPER JET WILL DEVELOP ACROSS THE CENTRAL U.S. THIS WILL DIG SOUTH AND BRING NORTHERLY LOW LEVEL FLOW TO THE LOWER OHIO VALLEY. TEMPERATURES WILL STEADILY FALL TO NEAR SEASONAL NORMALS BY FRIDAY AND SATURDAY.
