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.
The nearest sounding before it
Detroit, MI (KDTX), launched 12:00Z, 8.0 hours before the alert went out and 190 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, May 26, 3:42 PM EDT, 20 minutes before
AREA FORECAST DISCUSSION NATIONAL WEATHER SERVICE CLEVELAND OH 342 PM EDT SAT MAY 26 2007 .SYNOPSIS... WARM FRONT WILL CONTINUE TO MOVE NORTH OF THE FORECAST AREA THROUGH THIS EVENING. A COLD FRONT WILL MOVE THROUGH THE REGION SUNDAY AFTERNOON AND EVENING. HIGH PRESSURE WILL BREIFLY BUILD OVER THE COUNTY WARNING AREA MONDAY. ANOTHER COLD FRONT WILL MOVE THROUGH THURSDAY NIGHT. && .NEAR TERM /THROUGH TONIGHT/... WARM FRONT WILL PUSH NORTH TONIGHT. SCATTERED SHOWERS AND THUNDERSTORMS DEVELOPED OVER THE SOUTHERN PORTION OF THE FORECAST AREA. THEY ARE PULSING...THERE IS SOME SHEAR. IT IS POSSIBLE THAT ONE OR TWO OF THE STORMS COULD BECOME SEVERE THROUGH 00Z. IN THE NORTH THEY HAD SHOWERS MOST OF THE MORNING. AIRMASS IS GETTING UNSTABLE...SCATTERED FOR EARLY TONIGHT SHOULD WORK. THERE WILL BE A THREAT AFTER MIDNIGHT MAINLY IN THE NORTH AS THE WARM FRONT WILL BE CLOSE. GUIDANCE MINIMUM TEMPERATURES OK. && .SHORT TERM /SUNDAY THROUGH MONDAY/... COLD FRONT WILL MOVE THROUGH IN THE AFTERNOON AND EVENING. LIKELY POPS LOOK GOOD BUT MAY NOT BE NEEDED IN THE NORTHEAST DURING THE MORNING. LOWRED THE POP IN THE MORNING FOR THE NORTHEAST AREAS TO 30 PERCENT. IT WILL DEVELOP QUICKLY. PLENTY OF SHEAR...THE CAPES ARE HIGH BUT NOT REAL HIGH. SOME SEVERE COULD OCCUR. WILL NOT MENTION IN THE ZONES AT THIS TIME. HIGH PRESSURE BUILDS IN LATE SUNDAY NIGHT AND MONDAY SHOULD BE A DRY DAY WITH PLENTY OF SUNSHINE. GUIDANCE HIGH TEMPERATURES LOOK GOOD FOR SUNDAY...WENT A DEGREE WARMER BASED ON TEMPERATURES UPSTREAM TODAY. MAV GUIDANCE LOOKS OK FOR SUNDAY NIGHT AND MONDAY. && .LONG TERM /MONDAY NIGHT THROUGH SATURDAY/... MODELS AGREE WITH HIGH PRESSURE MOVING EAST MONDAY NIGHT. THE MODELS HAVE BEEN CONSISTENT OVER THE LAST FEW DAYS IN SHOWING SOME PRECIPITATION IN THE RETURN FLOW. STILL ON THE EDGE ABOUT IT...HOWEVER... WILL CONTINUE THE LOW POP THREAT. WEDNESDAY NO REAL TRIGGER BUT WITH A SOMEWHAT MOIST AND UNSTABLE AIRMASS WILL CONTINUE THE 20 POPS. GFS/DIGEX/ECMWF CONTINUE IN MOVING A COLD FRONT THROUGH THURSDAY NIGHT...SOME TIMING ISSUES...WITH THE ECMWF A LITTLE FASTER. RAISING THE POPS TO 50 PERCENT AS AIRMASS MOIST ENOUGH. TROUGHINESS CONTINUES INTO SATURDAY ACCORDING TO THE GFS...WHILE THE ECMWF AND DIGEX HAVE MORE HIGH PRESSURE. WITH THIS PATTERN A LOW POP THREAT SEEMS REASONABLE. && .AVIATION /17Z SATURDAY THROUGH WEDNESDAY/... SCATTERED SHOWERS AND EVEN A RUMBLE OF THUNDER CONTINUE ACROSS THE FORECAST AREA. WIDELY SCATTERED NATURE OF THE STORMS MAKES IT DIFFICULT TO PIN DOWN AN EXACT TIME WHEN EACH TERMINAL WILL BE AFFECTED BUT WILL GO WITH VCTS IN THE SOUTHERN TIER AIRPORTS AND VCSH FURTHER NORTH WHERE AIRMASS IS A BIT MORE STABLE. WARM FRONT ACROSS CENTRAL OHIO WILL PUSH NORTHWARD AND EVENTUALLY OVER LAKE ERIE OVERNIGHT...EFFECTIVELY ENDING PRECIP FOR A BRIEF TIME AT ALL SITES. SHOULD STAY HAZY OVERNIGHT BUT SOUTHERLY WINDS SHOULD PRECLUDE ANY SIGNIFICANT FOG FROM FORMING. TOMORROW A COLD FRONT WILL SWEEP ACROSS THE REGION...SHOWERS AND THUNDERSTORMS WILL ACCOMPANY THIS FRONT AND EXPECT BRIEF PERIODS OF IFR RAIN AT ALL SITES AS THE FRONT MOVES EASTWARD. WILL PROBABLY SEE RAIN CONTINUE AFTER THE END OF THE FORECAST PERIOD BUT TAPER OFF BY EARLY EVENING. FOLLOWING THE FRONT HIGH PRESSURE WILL BUILD OVER THE AREA ALLOWING FOR QUIET WEATHER AND GOOD VFR CONDITIONS THROUGH WEDNESDAY. && .MARINE... WARM FRONT OVER CENTRAL OHIO WILL MOVE ACROSS LAKE ERIE TONIGHT BUT WILL QUICKLY BE FOLLOWED BY A COLD FRONT TOMORROW AFTERNOON. RAPID CHANGES IN WIND DIRECTION OVER THE NEXT 24 HOURS WILL KEEP WAVES TO A MINIMUM BUT THEY MAY PICK UP TOMORROW AFTERNOON BEHIND THE COLD FRONT AS WINDS BECOME NORTHWESTERLY. WINDS AND WAVES SHOULD REMAIN BELOW SMALL CRAFT ADVISORY CRITERIA. HIGH PRESSURE QUICKLY BUILDS IN ON MONDAY AND WILL REMAIN ACROSS THE LAKE THROUGH THE MIDDLE OF THE WEEK. WINDS GRADUALLY TURNING AROUND OUT OF THE SOUTHEAST ON TUESDAY...SOUTH ON WEDNESDAY...AND SOUTHWEST ON THURSDAY. NO HEADLINES ANTICIPATED DURING THE NEXT FIVE DAYS. && && .CLE WATCHES/WARNINGS/ADVISORIES... OH...NONE. PA...NONE.
