What was reported inside it

Time	Report	Where	Remark
Jul 17, 7:28 PM CDT	HAIL 0.5	Cambria, WI

Local storm reports filed while the alert was in force, from inside its polygon or its counties.

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 Milwaukee, WI wrote its last area forecast discussion before this severe thunderstorm warning went out at Jul 17, 2:00 PM CDT, 4 hours 36 minutes earlier.

Area forecast discussion, Jul 17, 2:00 PM CDT, 4 hours 36 minutes before

AREA FORECAST DISCUSSION
NATIONAL WEATHER SERVICE MILWAUKEE/SULLIVAN WI
200 PM CDT MON JUL 17 2006

.DISCUSSION...FCST FOCUS IS ON HANDLING POPS TONIGHT THROUGH
SATURDAY EVENING.

VERY COMPLICATED WX PATTERN THE NEXT 36HRS WITH 3 DISTINCT FEATURES
PLAYING PARTS IN THE SCENARIO TONIGHT THROUGH SATURDAY NIGHT.  H5
S/W WITH A SIGNIFICANT THERMODYNAMIC CONTRIBUTION ASSOC WITH H8
BAROCLINIC ZONE TO THE SOUTH IS GENERATING LARGE AREA OF SHOWERS FM
SRN WI BACK SOUTHWEST INTO IL/IA.  THEN THERE IS THE ROGUE MCV
DROPPING OUT OF SE SDKTA ERLY THIS AFTN...WITH A PRONOUNCED
CIRCULATION SEEN IN THE RADAR LOOP.  THIS FEATURE HAS A MIND OF IT/S
OWN AND NOT HANDLED BY THE MODELS AT ALL. THIS IS A LONG LIVED
COMPLEX FROM LAST NIGHT. WV IMAGERY SUGGESTS IT IS TURNING
EASTERLY...BUT NOT ENTIRLY SURE THIS WILL SURVIVE INTO THE EVENING...
ESPECIALLY AS IT PUSHES INTO AIR ALREADY MASSSAGED BY THE RAINFALL
DOWNSTREAM TODAY.  THE THIRD ELEMENT IS THE NEXT H5 S/W PUSHING EAST
OUT OF THE NRN ROCKIES AND PROGD TO TRACK OVR LK SUPR AND NRN WI ON
SAT.  THE SCENARIO HAS BEEN THAT THE 1ST AND 3RD FEATURES WOULD
INTERACT WITH TIME...PRODUCING AN INVERTED SFC TROF OVER THE AREA BY
SATURDAY. SURFACE CYCLOGENESIS ASSOCIATED WITH THE DYNAMICS ALONG THE
SRN H8 BAROCLINIC ZONE WOULD OCCUR TONIGHT...WITH AN INVERTED TROF
DEVELOPING TO THE NW FM THE SFC LOW ASSOCIATED WITH THE ARRIVAL OF
THE H5 S/W TO THE NORTH.

THIS FIRST BATCH OF PRECIP SHOULD MOSTLY MOVE THROUGH BY EARLY THIS
EVENING. SOME ENHANCEMENT OCCURING ON LEADING EDGE OF PRECIP
SURGE INTO MIDDLE OF CWA...BUT PROFILERS AND MORNING RAOB DATA SHOW
THE LLV JET TURNING WESTERLY TO THE SOUTH WITH LITTLE SUPPORT FOR
PROLONGED LIFT THIS FAR NORTH OF THE BAROCLINIC ZONE. WOULD LIKE TO
DIMINISH PRECIP TO A SLIGHT CHANCE AFTER MIDNIGHT...THROUGH SATURDAY
MORNING AS AREA IS BETWEEN SYSTEMS DURING THIS TIME. AS UPR S/W TO
THE NORTH CLIPS THE AREA ON SATURDAY ACCOMPANIED BY INVERTED SFC
TROF...LINGERING MOISTURE AND AFTN HEATING SHOULD SUPPORT ENOUGH
INSTABILITY TO JUSTIFY THE SHOWERS AND ISOLD STORMS SATURDAY AFTN AND
EVENING.

THEN HIGH PRESSURE BUILDS IN FOR SUNDAY AND MONDAY...WITH THE NEXT
CHANCE FOR RAIN ON LATE MONDAY NIGHT INTO TUESDAY WITH ARRIVAL OF
CANADIAN FRONT.
