Did it verify

Not verified. The Iowa Environmental Mesonet's Cow found no qualifying storm report inside this tornado 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.

500 AM CDT THU APR 3 2008

THIS HAZARDOUS WEATHER OUTLOOK IS FOR A LARGE PART OF ARKANSAS.

.DAY ONE...TODAY AND TONIGHT

EXCESSIVE RUNOFF FROM HEAVY RAIN LAST WEEK AND MONDAY NIGHT WILL
CONTINUE TO CAUSE FLOODING OF RIVERS...STREAMS AND LOW WATER
CROSSINGS...MAINLY IN EASTERN ARKANSAS. THIS INCLUDES THE BLACK
RIVER...THE LOWER WHITE RIVER AND THE CACHE RIVER.

A WARM FRONT...OVER LOUISIANA THIS MORNING...WILL MOVE NORTH DURING
THE DAY REACHING SOUTHERN MISSOURI EARLY THIS EVENING. SCATTERED
SHOWERS AND THUNDERSTORMS WILL CONTINUE IN ADVANCE OF THE FRONT AS
WARM AND MOIST AIR OVERRUNS THE FRONTAL BOUNDARY. SEVERAL UPPER
LEVEL DISTURBANCES RIPPLING THROUGH THE UPPER FLOW WILL KEEP A
CHANCE OF PRECIPITATION IN THE FORECAST EVEN AFTER THE FRONT HAS
MOVED THROUGH.

A DEEP TROF OF LOW PRESSURE OVER THE WESTERN UNITED STATES THIS
MORNING WILL MOVE INTO THE NATIONS MID SECTION BY FRIDAY MORNING.
LOW PRESSURE WILL DEVELOP OVER THE TEXAS PANHANDLE THURSDAY
AFTERNOON AND WILL TRACK OFF TO THE NORTHEAST..DRAGGING A STRONG
COLD FRONT ABOUT HALFWAY THROUGH THE STATE BY MORNING. SEVERAL
ADDITIONAL UPPER LEVEL DISTURBANCES WILL TRAVERSE THE SURFACE FRONT
AS IT MOVES THROUGH THE STATE WITH WIDESPREAD SHOWERS AND
THUNDERSTORMS THE RESULT.

A GENERAL TWO TO THREE INCH RAINFALL...WITH LOCALLY HIGHER
AMOUNTS...IS EXPECTED FROM THIS STORM SYSTEM AND MUCH WILL FALL ON
AREAS WHERE THE GROUND IS STILL SATURATED FOR PREVIOUS HEAVY RAIN.
IT WILL NOT TAKE MUCH RAIN FOR FLASH FLOODING TO OCCUR. AS SUCH...A
FLASH FLOOD WATCH IS IN EFFECT FOR THE NORTHERN HALF OF ARKANSAS
FROM THIS MORNING THROUGH FRIDAY AFTERNOON. THE SITUATION WILL BE
MONITORED CLOSELY...GIVEN THAT ADDITIONAL RAIN WILL AGGRAVATE
EXISTING HIGH WATER PROBLEMS.

STRONG TO SEVERE THUNDERSTORMS ARE ALSO POSSIBLE WITH THE FRONTAL
PASSAGE WITH DAMAGING WINDS AND LARGE HAIL THE PRIMARY THREAT.
HOWEVER...WIND PROFILES THROUGH THE LOWER ATMOSPHERE CONTINUE TO
REMAIN SUPPORTIVE OF TORNADOES DURING THIS TIME FRAME. THE BEST
CHANCES OF SEEING SEVERE WEATHER WILL BE OVER WESTERN ARKANSAS
...ROUGHLY WEST OF A MOUNTAIN HOME TO LITTLE ROCK TO WARREN LINE
WHERE A MODERATE RISK OF SEVERE WEATHER LIES. HOWEVER...ANY PART OF
THE FORECAST AREA IS SUSCEPTIBLE TO SEEING SEVERE WEATHER WITH THIS
STORM SYSTEM.

.DAYS TWO THROUGH SEVEN...FRIDAY THROUGH WEDNESDAY

FLOODING WILL CONTINUE FOR SEVERAL MORE DAYS ALONG THE BLACK AND
CACHE RIVERS...AND THE LOWER REACHES OF THE WHITE RIVER.

THE COLD FRONT WILL CLEAR THE REMAINDER OF THE STATE FRIDAY MORNING
WITH
STRONG TO POSSIBLY SEVERE THUNDERSTORMS POSSIBLE OVER THE SOUTH
UNTIL THE FRONT FINALLY DOES CLEAR. THE AXIS OF HEAVY RAIN WILL
SHIFT OVER THE SOUTH AS THE FRONT MOVES INTO THIS PART OF THE STATE.
EVEN THOUGH SOUTHERN ARKANSAS HAS NOT SEEN NEARLY THE AMOUNT OF RAIN
THAT THE NORTH HAS...SOME LOCALIZED FLOODING COULD STILL OCCUR.

.SPOTTER INFORMATION STATEMENT...

SPOTTER ACTIVATION MAY BE REQUIRED THIS AFTERNOON THROUGH FRIDAY
AFTERNOON.
