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.

JMC PREV DISCUSSION... /ISSUED 327 PM CDT THU MAY 31 2007/ DISCUSSION... FORECAST CHALLENGES/CONCERNS FOCUS ON SEVERE THUNDERSTORM/HEAVY RAIN/FLOODING POTENTIAL TONIGHT THROUGH FRIDAY. RATHER COMPLEX SCENARIO EXPECTED TO UNFOLD TONIGHT. CURRENTLY...SHOWERS/THUNDERSTORMS ARE BREAKING OUT ACROSS WEST/NORTHWEST/NORTHERN KANSAS AND SOUTHERN NEBRASKA IN ZONE OF 850-700MB WARM/MOIST ADVECTION AHEAD OF SHORTWAVE ENERGY ROTATING SOUTHEAST OUT OF THE NORTHERN/CENTRAL ROCKIES. ANTICIPATE THIS ACTIVITY TO CONTINUE TO MOVE/DEVELOP EAST/SOUTHEAST THROUGH THE EVENING HOURS...WITH MORE DEVELOPMENT POSSIBLE FARTHER SOUTHWEST OVER WESTERN/SOUTHWEST KANSAS...AS SHORTWAVE ENERGY AND COLD FRONT ENCROACH FROM THE NORTHWEST. LOW-LEVEL MOISTURE CONTINUES TO SURGE NORTHWARD INTO SOUTHERN AND WESTERN KANSAS PER SATELLITE IMAGERY AND SHORT-TERM MODEL GUIDANCE. ANTICIPATING A RATHER ACTIVE NIGHT...WITH ONE OR MORE THUNDERSTORM COMPLEXES PROGRESSING ACROSS KANSAS...AIDED BY STRONG LOW-LEVEL MOISTURE TRANSPORT AHEAD OF SHORTWAVE ENERGY. THINKING CURRENT ACTIVITY OVER NORTHWEST/NORTHERN KANSAS MAY AFFECT PORTIONS OF CENTRAL KANSAS BY THIS EVENING...WITH MORE ACTIVITY POSSIBLY MOVING/DEVELOPING INTO SOUTH-CENTRAL KANSAS LATER TONIGHT. GIVEN FAIRLY SATURATED GROUNDS OVER MAINLY CENTRAL KANSAS...DECIDED TO GO WITH A FLASH FLOOD WATCH 7PM THIS EVENING THROUGH 1PM FRIDAY FOR RENO...HARVEY AND MARION COUNTIES ON NORTHWESTWARD. CONDITIONS ALSO LOOK FAVORABLE FOR STRONG/SEVERE STORMS...ESPECIALLY BEFORE MIDNIGHT GENERALLY WEST OF THE TURNPIKE...GIVEN AMPLE DEEP LAYER SHEAR AND INCREASING INSTABILITY. MAIN THREATS WILL BE LARGE HAIL AND DAMAGING WINDS. IN FACT...GIVEN PERPENDICULAR ORIENTATION OF 700-500MB WINDS AND DECENT 0-3KM SHEAR...THINKING ONE OR MORE FORWARD PROPAGATING COMPLEXES WILL BE POSSIBLE...ENHANCING DAMAGING WIND POTENTIAL. STILL SOME UNCERTAINTY ON TIMING...LOCATION AND AREAL COVERAGE OF ANY THUNDERSTORM COMPLEX(ES). ADDITIONALLY...STORMS SHOULD BE FAIRLY PROGRESSIVE (ESPECIALLY BEFORE MIDNIGHT) WHICH MAY TEND TO DECREASE WIDESPREAD VERY HEAVY RAINFALL AMOUNTS. HOWEVER...FELT IT PRUDENT TO ISSUE THE WATCH GIVEN 3 HR FLASH FLOOD GUIDANCE OF ONLY 1.5 INCHES ACROSS CENTRAL KS. THUNDERSTORM POTENTIAL WILL CONTINUE ON FRIDAY...WITH BOUNDARY SLOWING DOWN SOMEWHERE OVER THE TURNPIKE/FLINT HILLS. DECIDED AGAINST EXTENDING THE FLASH FLOOD WATCH PAST 1 PM GIVEN THUNDERSTORM COVERAGE UNCERTAINTY...BUT CONTINUED HIGH PRECIPITABLE WATER VALUES WILL CONTINUE HEAVY RAIN THREAT. STRONG/SEVERE THUNDERSTORMS APPEAR POSSIBLE GENERALLY ALONG/SOUTHEAST OF THE TURNPIKE AHEAD OF THE FRONT...ESPECIALLY IF SUFFICIENT DESTABILIZATION OCCURS. LINGERING FRONTAL BOUNDARY...ALONG WITH SUBTLE SHORTWAVE ENERGY CONTINUING TO ROTATE SOUTHEASTWARD ON SOUTHERN PERIPHERY OF UPPER MIDWEST LOW SHOULD RESULT IN CONTINUED CHANCES FOR THUNDERSTORMS ACROSS MAINLY SOUTH-CENTRAL AND SOUTHEAST KS FRIDAY NIGHT THROUGH SATURDAY NIGHT. GIVEN THE FRONTAL BOUNDARY SLOWING DOWN OR MAYBE EVEN STALLING ALONG THE OKLAHOMA BORDER...COULD BE LOOKING AT CONTINUED HEAVY RAIN POTENTIAL...ESPECIALLY ACROSS SOUTHEAST KANSAS ON FRIDAY NIGHT/EARLY SATURDAY. THINGS SHOULD DRY OUT BY SUNDAY...AS NORTHWEST FLOW ALOFT DEVELOPS OVER THE CENTRAL CONUS AND SURFACE HIGH PRESSURE APPROACHES FROM THE NORTHWEST. MEDIUM RANGE MODELS ARE COMING INTO BETTER AGREEMENT IN BREAKING DOWN WESTERN CONUS RIDGE IN RESPONSE TO SHORTWAVE ENERGY COMING ONSHORE. STILL QUITE A BIT OF SPREAD BETWEEN VARIOUS MODELS AND GFS ENSEMBLES...BUT CONSENSUS IS FOR ABOVE NORMAL TEMPERATURES AND BREEZY CONDITIONS BY WEDNESDAY...WITH THUNDERSTORM CHANCES POSSIBLY INCREASING WITH THE POTENTIAL FOR A COLD FRONT TO APPROACH FROM THE NORTHWEST. KLEINSASSER AVIATION... COMPOSED FOR THE 18Z TAFS AT 1128 AM CDT...NOT A LOT OF TAF CONCERNS FOR THE FIRST 6 HOURS AS WARM AIR IN THE MID LAYERS KEEPING THINGS CAPPED. MAIN CONCERN WILL BE CONVECTIVE COMPLEX AFTER 06Z/FRI ACROSS CEN KS NEAR KRSL AND KHUT AND POSSIBLY KICT. WOULD PREFER TO GO WITH VCTS AFTER 06Z IN CEN KS UNTIL WE SEE WHERE THIS COMPLEX WILL TRACK.
