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
Slidell Radar S, LA (KSIL), launched 12:00Z, 8.4 hours before the alert went out and 157 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, Jun 27, 2:45 PM CDT, 39 minutes before
AREA FORECAST DISCUSSION NATIONAL WEATHER SERVICE MOBILE AL 245 PM CDT WED JUN 27 2007 .SHORT TERM...(TONIGHT THROUGH FRIDAY NIGHT)...AS WAS THE CASE YESTERDAY...THIS AFTERNOONS THUNDERSTORMS WERE FIRING ALONG THE BOUNDARY OF DRY AND MOIST AIR AS SHOWN ON WATER VAPOR IMAGERY. EXPECT THESE THUNDERSTORMS TO CONTINUE TO DEVELOP ALONG THE BOUNDARY AND SLOWLY DRIFT WEST INTO SOUTHEAST MISSISSIPPI FOR THE NEXT FEW HOURS. WILL WAIT AND ADJUST EVENING POPS JUST BEFORE SENDING OUT ZONES AFTER HAVING A LOOK AT LATEST RADAR PICTURES. THUNDERSTORMS WILL HANG ON INTO THE EVENING BUT SHOULD DIMINISH BETWEEN 1000 PM AND MIDNIGHT. THIS BOUNDARY WAS ASSOCIATED WITH A COUNTERCLOCKWISE CURL OVER CENTRAL FLORIDA AS SHOWN ON WATER VAPOR IMAGERY. FOR THE REST OF TONIGHT STORMS WILL DISSIPATE AFTER MIDNIGHT WITH A FEW SHOWERS DEVELOPING OFFSHORE LATE TONIGHT. SHOULD BE LESS COVERAGE OF STORMS ON THURSDAY AND FRIDAY AS RIDING REMAINS ACROSS THE AREA BOTH AT THE SURFACE AND ALOFT. THIS RIDGE WILL SLOWLY BREAKDOWN AS THE TROUGH OVER TEXAS SLOWLY DRIFTS TO THE EAST THROUGH THE END OF THE WEEK. THERE IS ALSO A WEAK TROUGH WELL OFFSHORE THAT SLOWLY DISSIPATES FRIDAY AND FRIDAY NIGHT. STUCK PRETTY CLOSE TO GFS NUMBERS ON HIGHS AND LOWS WITH TEMPERATURES GENERALLY NEAR CLIMATE NORMALS 91/71 FOR THIS TIME OF YEAR. .LONG TERM...(SATURDAY THROUGH WEDNESDAY)...TYPICAL SUMMERTIME PATTERN CONTINUES THROUGH SUNDAY WITH DAILY SCATTERED SHOWERS AND THUNDERSTORMS DEVELOPING DURING THE HEAT OF THE DAY. THE WEAK FRONT THAT WAS MENTIONED IN THE PREVIOUS DISCUSSION HAS SLOWED DOWN SOME AND NOW APPEARS TO BE NEAR THE AREA LATE SUNDAY AND MONDAY. THIS WILL PROVIDE AN ADDITIONAL FOCUS FOR SHOWERS AND THUNDERSTORMS. STILL UNCERTAIN HOW FAR SOUTH THE FRONT WILL GET AS THE GFS SENDS IT SOUTH OF THE FORECAST AREA BY LATE MONDAY WITH A DRIER AIRMASS TUESDAY AND WEDNESDAY. HOWEVER...CONSIDERING THE TIME OF THE YEAR...THE FRONT WILL LIKELY STALL NEARBY AND WASH OUT THUS MAINTAINING THE MOIST AND UNSTABLE AIRMASS. WILL MAINTAIN AT LEAST ISOLATED POPS FOR THE FIRST HALF OF NEXT WEEK DUE TO THE UNCERTAINTY. && .MARINE...LITTLE CHANGE IN THE MARINE FORECAST AGAIN THIS PACKAGE. EASTERLY WINDS GENERALLY 10 KNOTS OR LESS IN THE BAYS AND SLIGHTLY HIGHER OVER THE GULF WATERS THROUGH THURSDAY AS THE HIGH PRESSURE RIDGE PERSIST. WINDS BECOMING SOUTH FRIDAY THEN WESTERLY SATURDAY AS RIDGE MOVES OFF TO THE EAST AND LEAVES A WEAK HIGH PRESSURE CIRCULATION TO THE SOUTH AND SOUTHWEST OF THE MARINE AREA. WAVE HEIGHTS GENERALLY 1 TO 3 FEET THROUGH THE PERIOD...EXCEPT BRIEFLY HIGHER NEAR ISOLATED THUNDERSTORMS...GENERALLY EARLY MORNING TO EARLY AFTERNOON. && .FIRE WEATHER...A MOIST AIRMASS WILL REMAIN ACROSS THE REGION THROUGH THE FORECAST PERIOD. SCATTERED SHOWERS AND THUNDERSTORMS WILL DEVELOP EACH AFTERNOON. THIS WILL KEEP RELATIVE HUMIDITY VALUES WELL ABOVE CRITICAL VALUES. && .PRELIMINARY POINT TEMPS/POPS...
