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
Dodge City, (KDDC), launched 00:00Z, 1.7 hours before the alert went out and 223 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.

WITH THE WESTERLY FLOW ALOFT PROVIDING AMPLE SHEAR...COULD SEE A FEW STRONG TO SEVERE STORMS DEVELOPING ACROSS THE EASTERN PLAINS...WITH HAIL UP TO 2 INCHES AND WIND GUSTS IN EXCESS OF 60 MPH POSSIBLE. HAVE KEPT ISOLATED POPS ACROSS THE HIGHER TERRAIN AND I-25 CORRIDOR THIS EVENING...THOUGH WITH THE DRIER AIR AT THE SFC...AM EXPECTING STORMS THAT CAN FIRE WILL PRODUCE MAINLY VIRGA WITH GUSTY WINDS UP TO 50 MPH. WEDNESDAY...DECREASING WEST TO NORTHWEST FLOW PROGGED ACROSS THE REGION AS JET CORE CONTINUES TO SLIDE SOUTH AND EAST OF THE STATE. MODELS INDICATING SOME INCREASE IN MID AND UPPER LEVEL MOISTURE AND UVV ACROSS WESTERN COLORADO ALONG WITH LEE TROUGHING PERSISTING ACROSS THE EASTERN PLAINS AS A SHORT WAVE EJECTING OFF DEEP NORTHERN TIER LOW ACROSS THE NORTHERN ROCKIES. MODELS SOUNDING INDICATE SIMILAR SET TO TODAY WITH DEEP MIXING AND AFTERNOON DEW PTS IN THE 30S TO LOW 40S THE HIGHER TERRAIN AND I-25...WITH BETTER LOW LEVEL MOISTURE EAST OF THE SFC TROUGH ACROSS THE FAR EASTERN PLAINS AND INTO WESTERN KANSAS...WITH LATEST SPC DAY2 OUTLOOK HAVING THIS AREA IN SLIGHT RISK ONCE AGAIN.

TEMPERATURES ALOFT ONLY COOL SLIGHTLY AND HAVE KEPT HIGHS AROUND TODAYS READINGS. -MW .LONG TERM... (THURSDAY THROUGH TUESDAY) ...ONE MORE WARM DAY THURSDAY... ...POTENTIAL FOR SIGNIFICANT WEATHER CHANGE FRI-SUN... ...POSSIBLE MINOR SNOW ACCUMULATIONS ON MOUNTAIN PEAKS FRI-SUN... THURSDAY...NORTHWEST FLOW CONTINUES AHEAD OF THE NEXT WEATHER SYSTEM DROPPING INTO THE NORTHERN ROCKIES/NORTHERN PLAINS. PLENTY OF MOISTURE AND INSTABILITY AROUND TO SUPPORT THE CURRENT THUNDERSTORM FORECAST AND NEAR AVERAGE TEMPERATURES. FIRST WEAK COLD FRONTAL PASSAGE MOVES THROUGH EASTERN CO THURSDAY AFTERNOON. I DIDNT MUCH CHANGES TO THIS FORECAST PERIOD. FRIDAY THROUGH SUNDAY...SHORT AND MEDIUM RANGE MODELS ARE FAIRLY CONSISTENT WITH SOME STOUT WEATHER CHANGES FRIDAY THROUGH AT LEAST THE WEEKEND. OBVIOUSLY...THE DEVIL IS IN THE DETAILS. GFS... NAM-WRF...DGEX...AND ECMWF ALL HAVE SIGNIFICANT 500MB HEIGHT CHANGES...588 DAM TO POSSIBLY 576-579 DAM...BY LATE THIS WEEK AND WEEKEND. LARGE LOW MOVES INTO CO AND CENTRAL PLAINS POSSIBLY FRIDAY. ASSOCIATED 1020-1025MB HIGH PRESSURE SYSTEM MOVES INTO THE NORTHERN ROCKIES/NORTHERN PLAINS WITH THE LEADING EDGE OF MUCH COLDER AIR MASS...E.G. COLD FRONT...MOVES INTO THE EASTERN 1/2 OF CO FRIDAY. WIDESPREAD STRATUS/FOG COULD BE POSSIBLE. ALSO...Q-G ANALYSES ARE SUGGESTING SYNOPTIC SCALE ASCENT WITH THE WEATHER SYSTEM FRIDAY AND FRIDAY NIGHT. CURRENTLY HAVE LOW CHANCE POPS AND THEY COULD INCREASED...BUT WILL GIVE IT A LITTLE MORE TIME SINCE THIS IS OUT IN DAY 3/DAY 3 NIGHT FORECAST PERIODS. MODEL MOS GUIDANCE HAS TAKEN HIGH TEMPERATURES INTO THE 70S ACROSS EASTERN CO AND I WOULDNT BE SURPRISED TO SEE TEMPERATURES NOT EVEN MAKE IT INTO THE 70S ACROSS SOUTHEASTERN CO PLAINS IF THE STRATUS/FOG DEVELOPS AND LOW LEVEL COLD AIR ADVECTION CONTINUES. THE RAW NAM-WRF DIGITAL FORECAST HAS HIGHS IN THE 50S ACROSS THE PALMER DIVIDE AND 60S ACROSS SOUTHEASTERN CO FRIDAY. WET BULB ZERO/FREEZING LEVEL HEIGHTS ARE PROGGED TO BE 10K-12K FT MSL ACROSS THE CENTRAL MOUNTAINS INCLUDING PIKES PEAK...SO THE POTENTIAL FOR MINOR ACCUMULATING SNOW ACROSS THE MOUNTAIN PEAKS WILL BE POSSIBLE. CONFINED ANY THUNDERSTORMS TO BE ACROSS THE CONTINENTAL DIVIDE/SAN LUIS VALLEY AS THE MORE UNSTABLE AIR MASS SHOULD BE IN PLACE IN THAT AREA FRIDAY THROUGH THE WEEKEND. HIGH TEMPERATURES FRIDAY THROUGH THE WEEKEND WILL LIKELY BE SOME 15-25 DEGREES COLDER THAN AVERAGE AUGUST TEMPERATURES AND I WOULDNT BE SURPRISED TO SEE SOME AREAS 30 DEGREES BELOW NORMAL TEMPERATURES. TEMPERATURES ACROSS THE HIGH TERRAIN MAY ONLY GET INTO THE 30S/40S THROUGH THE WEEKEND...AND PEOPLE HEADING INTO THE MOUNTAINS SHOULD MONITOR LATER WEATHER FORECASTS AND DRESS APPROPRIATELY IF HEADING INTO THE HIGH COUNTRY/MOUNTAIN PEAKS. I WENT AHEAD AND ADJUSTED TEMPERATURES DOWN QUITE A BIT BASED ON SURROUNDING OFFICES TO THE NORTH AND CONSISTENT MOS GUIDANCE. BESIDES THE RELATIVELY COLDER TEMPERATURES AT THE MOUNTAIN PEAKS...WINDS WILL BECOME BRISK TO WINDY FRIDAY AFTERNOON AND NIGHT AS 30-40KT MOUNTAIN TOP WINDS DEVELOP WITH THE UPPER LEVEL JET STREAK OVERHEAD. MONDAY AND TUESDAY...ENSEMBLE DATA SUGGEST THE LARGE RIDGE TO THE WEST WILL SLOWLY MOVE BACK INTO THE CENTRAL ROCKIES WITH MODERATING TEMPERATURES AND POSSIBLY DRYING OUT...BUT THE TYPICAL DIURNAL SHOWERS/THUNDERSTORMS WILL BE THE GENERAL RULE OR THAN THE EXCEPTION. HOWEVER...THE POTENTIAL CLOSED LOW BECOMES ORPHANED FROM THE MAIN JET STREAM FLOW AND MIGHT MEANDER AROUND THE CENTRAL ROCKIES AND CENTRAL PLAINS INTO EARLY NEXT WEEK. METZE && .AVIATION... ISOLATED TO SCATTERED TSRA EXPECTED ACROSS THE HIGHER TERRAIN AND EASTERN PLAINS TONIGHT AND AGAIN TOMORROW AFTERNOON...WITH BEST COVERAGE ACROSS THE FAR EASTERN PLAINS WHERE ISOLATED MVFR VIS AND CIGS WILL BE POSSIBLE NEAR STORMS. OTHERWISE VFR CONDITIONS EXPECTED WITH ANY STORMS THAT FIRE ACROSS THE HIGHER TERRAIN AND I-25 CORRIDOR WILL BE HIGH BASED AND PRODUCE GUSTY WINDS TO BETWEEN 40 AND 50 MPH THIS EVENING. -MW && .PUB WATCHES/WARNINGS/ADVISORIES...
