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, 4.6 hours before the alert went out and 167 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.

What forecasters said that day
The local office's own words before this severe thunderstorm warning went out, as it sent them, from the Iowa Environmental Mesonet's archive of National Weather Service text.
NWS Northern Indiana wrote its last area forecast discussion before this severe thunderstorm warning went out at Jun 22, 11:42 AM EDT, 53 minutes earlier.
Area forecast discussion, Jun 22, 11:42 AM EDT, 53 minutes before
AREA FORECAST DISCUSSION...CORRECTED NATIONAL WEATHER SERVICE NORTHERN INDIANA 1142 AM EDT SUN JUN 22 2008 .UPDATE... ATMOS DOWNSTREAM OF LAKE MICHIGAN DESTABILIZING NICELY LATE THIS AM UNDER STRONG INSOLATION. MODIFIED LAPS SNDGS AT 15 UTC YEILD 2-2.5 KJ/KG AND 1000 PLUS J/KG WHEN CONSIDERING A MIXED LAYER INCORPORATING NEAR PBL DRY LAYER. FAVORABLE HIGH EQL/NO CIN WITH WBZ 7.5 TO 8.5 KFT FAVOR MARGINAL TO ONE INCH DIAMETER HAIL...HOWEVER W/ 800+ J/KG DAPE TO INCREASE WITH INCREASED INSOLATION/DEEPER MIXING TO FAVOR ISOLD DAMAGING WIND RISK FURTHER DOWNSTREAM. UPDATED TO ADJUST SEVERE RISK AREA THIS AFTERNOON/EVENING ALONG AND EAST OF OUTFLOW BOUNDARY THAT MOVED ASHORE FROM AM SHRA/TSRA. && .PREV DISCUSSION... /ISSUED 652 AM EDT SUN JUN 22 2008/ AVIATION (12Z TAFS)... CONCERNS FOR AVIATION WITH THE THUNDERSTORM ACTIVITY LATE THIS MORNING THROUGH THE EVENING. VFR CONDITIONS WITH MODEST WESTERLY WINDS WILL BE FOUND OUTSIDE OF STORMS...WITH CIGS AT OR ABV 5K FT. INSIDE STORMS CIGS NEAR 3K FT AT THE LOWEST WITH VSBYS DOWN TO 2 TO 4 SM AND STRONG WIND GUSTS. THUNDERSTORMS SHOULD START TO DECREASE AND END LATE THIS EVENING...LEAVING LIGHT WNW WINDS AND SCT OR FEW CLOUDS OVERNIGHT. PREV DISCUSSION... /ISSUED 401 AM EDT SUN JUN 22 2008/ SHORT TERM... TODAY THROUGH MONDAY NIGHT HIGH PLAINS ENVIRONMENT CONTINUES ACROSS THE SOUTHERN GREAT LAKES. DEEPENING UPPER LOW PRESSURE OVER THE UPPER GREAT LAKES CONTINUES TO BRING VERY UNSTABLE AIR TO THE REGION AS NUMEROUS MID LEVEL SPEED MAXIMA TRANSLATE OVER THE NORTHERN ROCKIES AND MERGES WITH THE GREAT LAKES VORTEX...AMPLIFYING IN THE PROCESS. THE NEXT DISTURBANCE IN A SERIES OF IMPULSES CAN BE SEEN DIGGING INTO THE UPPER MIDWEST ON WATER VAPOR IMAGERY. RADAR DATA CONFIRMS STRONG LIFT ASSOCIATED WITH THIS DISTURBANCE...AS NOTED BY A BROKEN LINE OF HIGH BASED CONVECTION OVER NORTHERN IA INTO WI. LOCALLY...A FEW ACCAS WERE PRESENT ASSOCIATED WITH ONE OF THE MANY SMALL SCALE MID LEVEL DISTURBANCES. ISOLATED THUNDERSTORMS HAVE FINALLY DISSIPATED WITH LACK OF ANY SIGNIFICANT FORCING IN THE REGION. STALLED SFC TROUGH WAS LOCATED ACROSS THE REGION EXTENDING FROM UPPER LOWER MICHIGAN TO SW PORTIONS OF THE CWA. TEMPS ACROSS THE FA WERE GENERALLY IN THE UPPER 50S LOWER 60S...WITH CALM WINDS AS OF 07Z. FORECAST MODELS WERE AGAIN IN GOOD AGREEMENT WITH EACH OTHER...ONLY A FEW SMALL DIFFERENCES NOTED BETWEEN THE GFS AND NAM...MAINLY WITH REGARD TO MOMENTUM FIELDS. UTILIZED THE NAM/RUC/GFS/SREF FOR GUIDANCE. TODAY...AFOREMENTIONED UPPER LEVEL IMPULSE WILL PUSH INTO THE OHIO VALLEY REGION...FORCING LARGE SCALE ASCENT AND COOLING OVER THE REGION. MID LEVEL LAPSE RATES WILL TAKE ON HIGH PLAINS VALUES AS H85 TO H5 LAPSE RATES APPROACH NEAR ADIABATIC VALUES AT 8 C/KM. DISMAL LL MOISTURE IN PLACE WILL BE HIGHLY OFF SET BY AMPLE MID LEVEL COOLING/STEEP MID LEVEL LAPSE RATES/AND ADDED ASCENT ON THE LEFT EXIT REGION OF A POTENT 80-90 KNOT UPPER LEVEL JET STREAK. PROGGED SB CAPE VALUES OF 1100-1600 J/KG WILL BE MORE THAN SUFFICIENT TO ALLOW FOR INTENSE UPDRAFTS...ESPECIALLY IN THE SW WHERE THE AFOREMENTIONED PARAMETERS WILL BE BEST COLLOCATED...INCLUDING 0-6 KM BULK SHEAR OF 30 TO 35 KNOTS. HAVE ADDED SEVERE MENTION IN THE SOUTH DUE TO THESE CONCERNS WITH MENTION OF LARGE HAIL AND DAMAGING WINDS...ESPECIALLY WITH 1)DECENT CAPE IN THE HAIL GROWTH ZONE 2)SUBSTANTIALLY DRY AIR ALOFT/INVERTED V SOUNDINGS/LOW WET BULB ZERO AT APPROX 7KFT AND PROGGED SFC-MID LEVEL THETA-E DIFF OF GREATER THAN 20K. NOT RULING OUT DAMAGING WINDS OR HAIL IN THE NORTH...JUST EXPECT BEST COVERAGE OF SEVERE TS TO RESIDE IN THE SOUTHERN THIRD OF THE FA WHERE BETTER UPPER LEVEL SUPPORT IS EXPECTED. LINGERING SFC TROUGH ACROSS THE FA LOOKS TO BE THE FOCUS POINT FOR INITIATION LATE THIS MORNING/EARLY THIS AFTERNOON. EXPECTING A SITUATION SIMILAR TO YESTERDAY WHERE NUMEROUS TS DEVELOPED/CONGEALED AND PUSHED E/SE WITH THE MEAN FLOW. WEAK 0-3 KM SHEAR /10-15 KNOTS/ LOOKS TO AGAIN LIMIT DEVELOPMENT OF A SELF SUSTAINING LINEAR CONVECTIVE SYSTEM. HOWEVER...SHORTLIVED BOWING SEGMENTS WILL BE POSSIBLE. THINGS WILL WIND DOWN THIS EVENING AS HEATING IS LOST AND UPPER WAKE SUBSIDENCE LOOKS TO SETTLE INTO THE FA. MONDAY...HAVE CONTINUED LOW CHANCE POPS IN THE EAST WHERE CYCLONIC FLOW AND STEEP LAPSE RATES PER H5 TEMPS AT -18C WILL BE IN PLACE...SUPPORTING CONVECTION. NO STRONG CONCENTRATED MID LEVEL IMPULSES ARE PROGGED AT THIS POINT...BUT ONE MAY BE IN THE CARDS GIVEN THE NATURE OF THIS SYSTEM. THIS WOULD INCREASE CONVECTIVE CHANCES AND ALLOW BETTER COVERAGE. WILL HOLD ONTO PREVIOUS FORECAST FOR NOW. HAVE RAISED TEMPS TODAY PER H8 MIXING...WITH H8 TEMPS SIMILAR TO YESTERDAY. HAVE LOWERED HIGHS MONDAY...ESPECIALLY IN THE NW WHERE LONG FETCH SUBSIDENT FLOW WILL HOLD TEMPS IN THE 60S AT BEH...SOME 15 DEGREES BELOW NORMAL. HAVE ALSO LOWERED MINS SOME MONDAY NIGHT...WITH CLEAR SKIES/LIGHT WINDS/AND DRY AIR IN PLACE. LONG TERM (TUESDAY THROUGH SATURDAY)... STRONG CONSISTENCY IN THE MEDIUM RANGE MODELS CONTINUES...WITH LITTLE DIFFERENCE IN THE OPERATIONAL EURO AND THE GFS. A COMPARISON OF THE H500 FIELDS ARE NEARLY IDENTICAL...WITH SOME SLIGHT PLACEMENT DIFFERENCES WITH SFC FEATURES ON WEDNESDAY AND THURSDAY. WILL USE AND BLEND OF NAM12 AND THE GFS FOR THE TUESDAY PERIOD...THEN TRANSITION TOWARDS THE EURO SOLUTION WITH ITS STRONG CONSISTENCY THE LAST FEW DAYS. HIGH CONFIDENCE IN THE TUES/WED TIMEFRAME WITH ABV NORMAL CONFIDENCE IN THE THURS-SAT TIMEFRAME. TUESDAY THROUGH WEDNESDAY... TUESDAY LOOKS TO BE THE BEST DAY OF THE WEEK FOR THOSE WITH OUTDOOR PLANS...JUST BRING ALONG SOME SUNSCREEN AS PLENTY OF SUNSHINE AND DRY CONDITIONS AS SFC RIDGING AND UPPER LVL RIDGING MOVE ACROSS THE REGION. SHRTWV WILL APPROACH TOWARDS EARLY WEDNESDAY AND WILL POSSIBLY BRING SOME SHOWERS AND THUNDERSTORMS EARLY MORNING ON INTO THE REST OF THE DAY. DEPENDING ON THE AMOUNT OF CLOUD COVER DAMPENING THE HEATING/INSTABILITY...DECENT ENVIRON FOR MULTICELLULAR STORMS... MAY BE STRONG WITH GUSTY WINDS AND HAIL AS THREATS. EURO HAS BEEN HINTING THAT THE PRECIP COULD END OVERNIGHT INTO THURSDAY AS LAPSE RATES COLLAPSE...INSTABILITY IS LACKING...SLIGHT RIDGE MOVES OVER THE REGION AND A POSSIBLE LACK OF TRIGGER MAY ALL COMBINE FOR A LULL IN THE PRECIP CHCS. HAVE LOWERED THE POPS FOR THE OVERNIGHT PERIOD TO 25 TO START THE TREND FOR A DRIER OVERNIGHT PERIOD INTO THURSDAY. SLIGHTLY BELOW NORMAL TUESDAY...SEASONAL TEMPS WEDNESDAY. THURSDAY THROUGH SATURDAY... FAIRLY PROGRESSIVE FLOW ACROSS THE NORTHERN TIER OF THE CONUS...WITH SFC HIGH ACROSS THE SOUTHERN APP MTNS AND UPPER LVL RIDGING OVER THE SE STATES. SFC BOUNDARY WELL TO THE WEST...PLENTY OF MOISTURE ACROSS THE REGION WITH DEWPTS INTO THE 60S...WILL CONTINUE LOW END CHC POPS WITH A BETTER CHC IN THE AFTERNOON WITH DIURNAL/PULSE ACTIVITY MOST LIKELY. BUFKIT SUGGESTS THAT SOME CAPPING MAY BE IN PLACE AND LIMIT THE ACTIVITY...TREND TO WATCH AS MID LVL WARMING STARTING TO SHOW A TREND IN THE MODELS AS H850-700 BUMP UP QUICKLY THURSDAY AFTERNOON. BOUNDARY STARTS TO SAG SOUTH AND EAST FRIDAY INTO SATURDAY...DECENT CHCS FOR PRECIP EACH DAY...CHCS SHOULD START TO LESSEN AS YOU GO LATER INTO THE WEEKEND WITH OVER INTO SUNDAY LOOKING MOSTLY DRY. SLIGHTLY ABV NORMAL THURSDAY AND A BIT WARMER FOR FRIDAY...THEN JUST A BIT ABV NORMAL FOR SATURDAY. MODELS AREA STARTING TO HINT A POSSIBLE BIG TIME WARMUP IN ABOUT 8-10 DAYS...SOME SUPPORT FROM THE PNA AND EPO INDEXES...MAY WE HIT OUR FIRST MID 90S OF THE YEAR...WITH HEAT INDICES IN THE 100S? WILL HAVE TO WATCH THE GROUND MOISTURE AS IT WILL PLAY BIG IN LIMITING ANY SIGNIFICANT HEAT. && .IWX WATCHES/WARNINGS/ADVISORIES... IN...NONE. MI...NONE. OH...NONE.
