The archived warnings, watches and discussions in force at that minute are drawn over the scan, this one among them.

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

Davenport, (KDVN), launched 12:00Z, 11.3 hours before the alert went out and 142 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, Jul 11, 2:55 PM CDT, 3 hours 22 minutes before

AREA FORECAST DISCUSSION
NATIONAL WEATHER SERVICE LINCOLN IL
255 PM CDT FRI JUL 11 2008

.DISCUSSION...
ISSUED 244 PM CDT FRI JUL 11 2008

A WEAK UPPER LEVEL DISTURBANCE WAS PUSHING ACRS WEST CNTRL IL
THIS AFTERNOON HELPING TO SPARK SCATTERED THUNDERSTORMS. TYPICAL
TROPICAL AIR MASS WITH DEW POINTS IN THE LOWER 70S AND A FREEZING
LEVEL OF AROUND 14000 FEET ON THE 12Z ILX SOUNDING ACCOMPANIED BY
RATHER LIGHT WINDS ALOFT. STORMS HAVE BEEN PRODUCING WIND GUSTS
TO 45 MPH...PEA SIZE HAIL AND TORRENTIAL RAINFALL. WAVE SHOULD
EXIT TO OUR EAST THIS EVENING WITH THE ISOLD CONVECTION TO OUR
WEST AND SOUTH HAVE MORE OF A DIURNAL COMPONENT TO IT SO WL
HANDLE WITH SCATTERED WORDING THIS EVENING AND CHANCE POPS
OVERNIGHT FOR ADDL DEVELOPMENT AS CONVECTION ALONG A STRONG COLD
FRONT TRANSLATES EWD TO THE MISSISSIPPI RIVER BY DAWN ON SAT.

SHORT TERM...TONIGHT THROUGH MONDAY
MAIN FORECAST CONCERN WILL BE WITH RAIN CHANCES TONIGHT AND SEVERE
THREAT ALONG COLD FRONT ON SATURDAY. AFTER THAT...A RATHER QUIET WX
PICTURE SHAPING UP THRU WED OF NEXT WEEK. NO REAL MODEL PREFERENCES
AS BOTH THE NAM-WRF AND GFS WERE HANDLING THE MOVEMENT OF THE UPPER
WAVE AND COLD FRONT SIMILARLY. SEVERAL WEAK UPPER LEVEL DISTURBANCES
WERE TRACKING FRM MO EWD INTO CNTRL IL. THE LEAD WAVE PRODUCED THE
SCATTERED STORMS ACRS THE FCST AREA THRU MID AFTERNOON. HOWEVER...
THE WATER VAPOR LOOP STILL SHOWING SOME ENERGY OVR WRN MO BUT VERY
LITTLE IN THE WAY OF CONVECTION ASSOCIATED WITH THAT FEATURE AS
A STRONG CAP EXISTED FURTHER WEST KEEPING CONVECTION MORE ISOLATED.
WITH THE INITIAL WAVE PUSHING TO OUR EAST THIS EVENING...THE
CONVECTION SHOULD BEGIN TO DECREASE IN COVERAGE TO THE WEST WITH
THE LOSS OF DAYTIME HEATING SO WL CARRY SCT/ISOLD WORDING THIS
EVENING AND THEN START TO SHAVE POPS ACRS OUR EAST AND SOUTHEAST
AS THE BETTER SUPPORT FOR CONVECTION WITH THE STRONG COLD FRONT
OVER THE PLAINS SHIFTS TO OUR FAR NW COUNTIES BY DAWN.

THE STRONG UPPER LEVEL WAVE WL DIG SOUTHEAST INTO THE UPPER LAKES
OVR THE NEXT 24 TO 36 HOURS AND DRAG A COLD FRONT ACROSS CENTRAL
ILLINOIS SATURDAY AFTN. IT APPEARS AREAS ALONG AND EAST OF
INTERSTATE 55 HAVE THE THREAT FOR SEEING SOME STRONG TO SEVERE
STORMS DURING THE AFTN AND EVENING HOURS. MODERATE INSTABILITY/CAPES
BUT RATHER WEAK SHEAR AND MORE UNIDIRECTIONAL WIND PROFILES
SUGGEST ANY STORMS THAT DO ORGANIZE WL BE MORE LINEAR WITH THE
MAIN THREAT BEING WITH STRONG WINDS. CONVECTION CHANCES WL START
TO LOWER FROM NW TO SEE EARLY SAT EVENING AND POPS WL BE LEFT IN
THE SLIGHT CHANCE RANGE EARLY SUN MORNING IN OUR EXTREME SE. HIGH
PRESSURE WILL THEN SETTLE INTO THE MIDWEST LATE SUNDAY AND BRING
SLIGHTLY COOLER AND DRIER WEATHER TO THE AREA THROUGH MONDAY.

LONG TERM...TUESDAY THROUGH FRIDAY
UPPER LEVEL WAVE FORECAST BY ALL MEDIUM RANGE MODELS TO BUILD NWD
WITH TIME EARLY NEXT WEEK WHICH SHOULD BRING A GRDL WARMING TREND
AND DRY CONDITIONS TO THE REGION. STILL SEEING SOME WEAK DISTURBANCES
ROTATE ALONG THE NRN PERIPHERY OF THE UPPER LEVEL HIGH AS IT BUILDS
NWD BUT FOR THE MOST PART...THESE DISTURBANCES ARE EXPECTED TO STAY
WEST OF THE MISSISSIPPI RIVER THRU WEDNESDAY. AFTER THAT...SHORTWAVE
ENERGY WL MOVE ACRS SW CANADA INTO NRN MONTANA BY DAY 7 (FRIDAY) AS
THE UPPER LEVEL RIDGE STARTS TO GET DEPRESSED SOUTH AND EAST AHEAD
OF THIS FEATURE. MODELS HAVE TRENDED A BIT SLOWER WITH THE FRONTAL
SYSTEM ASSOCIATED WITH THE MONTANA WAVE SO IT APPEARS OTHER THAN
A SLIGHT CHANCE INCORPORATED INTO THE GRIDS FOR FRIDAY...THE BEST
THREAT FOR ORGANIZED SHOWERS AND THUNDERSTORMS WITH THE COLD FRONT
WL NOT ARRIVE UNTIL NEXT WEEKEND.

SMITH
&&

.AVIATION...
ISSUED 1247 PM CDT FRI JUL 11 2008

WEAK UPPER DISTURBANCE WILL TRACK FROM MISSOURI INTO ILLINOIS
TONIGHT...TRIGGERING SCATTERED CONVECTION ACROSS THE TAF SITES.
LATEST RADAR IMAGERY SHOWS LINE OF STORMS APPROACHING THE ILLINOIS
RIVER THAT WILL LIKELY IMPACT BOTH KPIA AND KBMI OVER THE NEXT 2
TO 3 HOURS. HAVE INCLUDED TEMPO GROUP FOR TSRA AT BOTH SITES TO
COVER THIS. FURTHER SOUTH AND EAST...CONVECTION LOOKS TO REMAIN
MORE WIDELY SCATTERED IN NATURE...SO WILL HANDLE WITH A VCTS. AS
WAVE SLOWLY MAKES ITS WAY ACROSS THE AREA TONIGHT...SCATTERED
THUNDERSTORMS WILL LIKELY CONTINUE AT LEAST THROUGH THE EVENING
HOURS...BEFORE DIMINISHING FROM WEST TO EAST AFTER MIDNIGHT. GIVEN
UNCERTAINTY OF EXACT TIMING OF STORMS INTO ANY ONE PARTICULAR
TERMINAL...HAVE OPTED TO STICK WITH VCTS UNTIL RADAR/SURFACE OBS
MAKE THINGS MORE CLEAR. COLD FRONT WILL DROP SOUTHWARD LATER
TONIGHT...REACHING FAR EASTERN IOWA BY 12Z. AS BOUNDARY DROPS INTO
CENTRAL ILLINOIS...THUNDERSTORM CHANCES WILL BE ENHANCED BETWEEN
14Z AND 18Z. HAVE THEREFORE INCLUDED A PROB30 FOR TSRA AT ALL TAF
SITES DURING THAT TIME FRAME.
