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
NATIONAL WEATHER SERVICE GRAND RAPIDS MI
415 PM EDT WED AUG 29 2007
LATEST UPDATE...ALL EXCEPT LONG TERM AND AVIATION...
.SYNOPSIS...(415 PM EDT WED AUG 29 2007)
A COLD FRONT OVER SOUTHERN LOWER MICHIGAN THIS AFTERNOON WILL MOVE
SOUTH OF THE STATE BY MIDNIGHT. SCATTERED SHOWERS AND THUNDERSTORMS
WILL ACCOMPANY THE FRONT EARLY THIS EVENING... AND SOME STORMS MAY
BE SEVERE SOUTH AND EAST OF GRAND RAPIDS. COOLER AND DRIER AIR WILL
FILTER SOUTH BEHIND THE FRONT OVERNIGHT. HIGH PRESSURE WILL BUILD
INTO THE GREAT LAKES REGION THURSDAY AND REMAIN IN PLACE OVER THE
HOLIDAY WEEKEND...BRINGING A STRETCH OF DRY WEATHER WITH SEASONAL
TEMPERATURES.
&&
.SHORT TERM... (415 PM EDT WED AUG 29 2007)
CONVECTIVE CLOUD LINE ASSOCIATED WITH THE COLD FRONT AT 330 PM RUNS
FROM JUST SOUTH OF ALMA TO JUST SOUTHEAST OF GRAND RAPIDS... WITH
ANOTHER CLUSTER LOCATED OVER ST JOE COUNTY AND MOVING EAST
NORTHEAST. SURFACE BASED CAPES HAVE CLIMBED OVER 2000 J/KG ALONG AND
AHEAD OF THE COLD FRONT WITH DEEP LAYER SHEAR OF 35 KNOTS... SO A
FEW CELLS COULD PULSE TO SEVERE LEVELS THROUGH SUNSET.
THE FRONT CLEARS THE SRN MI BORDER LATER THIS EVENING... WITH DEW
POINTS IN THE 50S SPREADING SOUTH OVERNIGHT IN LOW LEVEL NORTHERLY
FLOW BEHIND THE FRONT. HIGH PRESSURE RIDGES IN ON THURSDAY FROM THE
NORTHWEST... THEN SETTLES OVERHEAD FOR FRIDAY AND SATURDAY. THIS
WILL LEAD TO PARTLY CLOUDY AND WARM DAYS... WITH CLEAR AND COOL
NIGHTS. RH LEVELS WILL BE RATHER LOW DURING THE AFTERNOON HOURS
LEADING TO QUITE PLEASANT CONDITIONS. MODELS ARE SHOWING SOME 700 MB
MOISTURE SWINGING DOWN FROM THE NORTH ON FRIDAY... WHICH COULD BRING
A BRIEF PERIOD OF CLOUDINESS TO THE REGION.
&&
.LONG TERM... (122 PM EDT WED AUG 29 2007)
UPPER RIDGE IS STILL EXPECTED TO BUILD OVER THE CENTRAL PORTION OF
THE COUNTRY THROUGH THE FIRST HALF OF THE UPCOMING LABOR DAY
WEEKEND. SFC RIDGING WILL OVERHEAD DURING THIS SAME TIME FRAME. DRY
WEATHER ALONG WITH TEMPERATURES AROUND 80 ON SAT AND LOW TO MID 80S
ON SUN CAN BE EXPECTED.
AS THE UPPER RIDGE BREAKS DOWN TEMPORARILY...A WEAKENING COLD FRONT
WILL MOVE DOWN INTO THE AREA DURING THE DAY ON MON. DEEP LAYER
MOISTURE...UPPER ENERGY...AND LOW LEVEL CONVERGENCE WILL ALL BE
LACKING WITH THIS FRONT. WITH THIS IN MIND...WE HAVE MAINTAINED THE
DRY FORECAST FOR MON. THIS FRONT IS EXPECTED TO MOVE NORTH ON
TUE...BUT THE STRONG MOISTURE ADVECTION WILL REMAIN WEST AND
EVENTUALLY NORTH OF THE AREA. AS THE FRONT TRIES TO MOVES THROUGH ON
WED...IT WILL ALSO WEAKEN WITH THE JET EXPECTED TO REMAIN NORTH OVER
CANADA.
&&
.AVIATION...(104 PM EDT WED AUG 29 2007)
FRONT AS OF 17Z EXTENDED FROM NEAR KBEH...TO JUST SOUTH OF KGRR...TO
NEAR SAGINAW BAY. THIS FRONT WILL SLOWLY MOVE SOUTH THIS AFTERNOON
AND EARLY EVENING...CHANGING THE WINDS FROM SOUTHWEST AHEAD OF THE
FRONT TO NORTH/NORTHWEST BEHIND IT. SCATTERED TO NUMEROUS CONVECTION
IS EXPECTED TO FIRE ALONG AND JUST BEHIND THE FRONT BETWEEN 19Z AND
21Z. THE BEST POTENTIAL FOR STORMS WILL BE AT THE SOUTHEAST
TERMINALS AND HAVE INSERTED A TEMPO GROUP THERE. KMKG SEEMS TO BE
PRETTY MUCH OUT OF THE THREAT...SO HAVE ONLY INCLUDED A VCSH THERE
WITH VCTS AT KGRR AND KAZO. STORM THREAT WILL END BY 00Z
EVERYWHERE.
AN AXIS OF LOW LEVEL MOISTURE IN THE WAKE OF THE FRONT IS CURRENTLY
LOCATED ACROSS WI AND NORTHERN LOWER MICHIGAN. THIS MOISTURE IS
EXPECTED TO DIMINISH A BIT THIS AFTERNOON WITH DIURNAL MIXING BEFORE
IT MOVES OVERHEAD THIS EVENING. IT LOOKS LIKE IT WILL NOT BE A
FACTOR TO THE NORTHWEST TERMINALS AS IT PASSES BY. IT DOES LOOK TO
BECOME A FACTOR FOR THE SOUTHEAST TERMINALS AS IT WILL BE OVER THAT
AREA OVERNIGHT WHEN THE MOISTURE WILL TEND TO REDEVELOP. WE HAVE
INCLUDED A BIT OF MVFR STRATUS/STRATOCUMULUS FOR KBTL...KLAN...AND
KJXN FOR THIS REASON OVERNIGHT. FOG SHOULD NOT BE MUCH OF A PROBLEM
AS ENOUGH WIND SHOULD REMAIN UP. LOW LEVEL CLOUD COVER WILL THEN MIX
OUT THURSDAY MORNING INTO A CUMULUS DECK.
&&
.MARINE... (415 PM EDT WED AUG 29 2007)
NORTH FLOW COLD ADVECTION TONIGHT/THURSDAY OVER 70 DEGREE LAKE WATER
WILL UNDOUBTEDLY LEAD TO ROUGH WATERS. HOWEVER THE LARGER WAVES WILL
PROBABLY BE A FEW MILES OFFSHORE OF MUSKEGON/GRAND HAVEN AREAS DUE
TO CONCAVE SHORELINE PROVIDING A BIT OF SHELTER FROM THE NORTH FLOW.
LARGER WAVES SHOULD LINGER LONGER SOUTH OF HOLLAND ON THURSDAY PER
OUTPUT FROM GLERL WAVE MODEL...SO WILL HAVE A LONGER DURATION SMALL
CRAFT ADVISORY THERE.
&&
.HYDROLOGY... (415 PM EDT WED AUG 29 2007)
LIMITED COVERAGE OF STORMS ALONG THE FRONT THIS EVENING NOT EXPECTED
TO LEAD TO ANY SIGNIFICANT HYDRO ISSUES.
&&
.GRR WATCHES/WARNINGS/ADVISORIES...
