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.

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 Jackson, MS wrote its last area forecast discussion before this severe thunderstorm warning went out at Feb 27, 10:46 AM CST, 3 hours 43 minutes earlier.

Area forecast discussion, Feb 27, 10:46 AM CST, 3 hours 43 minutes before

AREA FORECAST DISCUSSION...UPDATED
NATIONAL WEATHER SERVICE JACKSON MS
1046 AM CST FRI FEB 27 2009

...SEVERE WEATHER AND HEAVY RAIN ONGOING THIS MORNING AND EXPECTED
TO CONTINUE THROUGH THE DAY...

.DISCUSSION...IVE UPDATE THE FORECAST THIS MORNING TO MAINLY
ACCOUNT FOR SEVERE THUNDERSTORM WATCH 37 WHICH COVERS AREAS ALONG
AND NORTH OF THE INTERSTATE 20 CORRIDOR UNTIL 21Z.  SEVERE WEATHER
IS ONGOING OVER AREAS MAINLY ALONG AND NORTH OF HIGHWAY 82...WITH
SPOTTY ACTIVITY BEGINNING TO DEVELOP FURTHER SOUTH AS DAYTIME
HEATING COMMENCES.  WITH COLD TEMPERATURES ALOFT...-16C @ 500MB AND
-43C @ 300MB OBSERVED ON THE 12Z KJAN RAOB...STORMS THUS FAR HAVE
BEEN EFFICIENT HAIL PRODUCERS WITH SIZES RANGING FROM PEA TO HALF
DOLLAR BEING REPORTED FROM SEVERAL OF THESE STORMS SINCE EARLY THIS
MORNING.  SOME REPORTS OF TREES AND TREES LIMBS DOWN HAVE BEEN NOTED
AS WELL.

FOR THE REST OF TODAY...THE FRONT WILL CONTINUE TO SAG SOUTH AND
EVENTUALLY INTO THE FORECAST AREA WHERE ITLL BASICALLY LAY OUT
AND BECOME NEARLY STATIONARY ACROSS THE AREA.  AS IT DOES SO...ITLL
ENCOUNTER AN INCREASINGLY UNSTABLE AIRMASS AS ANOTHER AREA ASCENT
PUSHES EAST ACROSS THE AREA.  THE 12Z KJAN SOUNDING INDICATES THAT A
WEAK CAP CURRENTLY REMAINS OVER CENTRAL PORTIONS OF THE AREA.
HOWEVER...WHEN THE SOUNDING IS MODIFIED TO REPRESENT SUGGESTED
CONDITIONS LATER THIS AFTERNOON...THE CAP IS NO LONGER AN ISSUE AND
SUGGESTED ML CAPE VALUES RANGE FROM 1500-1700 J/KG.  THE AREA WILL
ALSO SIT IN THE FAVORABLE UPPER LEFT QUAD OF AN UPPER LEVEL JET INTO
THE EARLIER AFTERNOON WHICH IS AND WILL CONTINUE TO AID IN THE
DEVELOPMENT OF STORMS.  MODELS ALSO INDICATE THAT DEEP LAYER WIND
SHEAR WILL INCREASE TO BETWEEN 45-55 KNOTS THIS AFTERNOON.  THESE
AND OTHER SEVERE PARAMETERS INDICATE THAT THROUGH THE AFTERNOON THE
SEVERE AND HEAVY RAIN THREAT WILL INCREASE AND SHIFT FURTHER SOUTH
AND INTO CENTRAL PORTIONS OF THE FORECAST AREA...PARTICULARLY NORTH
OF INTERSTATE 20 AND SOUTH OF HIGHWAY 82.

WHILE HAIL IS THE MAIN THREAT AT PRESENT...WITH SHEAR EXPECTED TO
INCREASE IN THE AFTERNOON...THE RISK OF STRONG DAMAGING WINDS WILL
ALSO INCREASE...AND THE POSSIBILITY OF A TORNADO OR TWO CANNOT BE
RULED OUT AS WELL.  THE POTENTIAL FOR HEAVY RAIN WILL EXIST AS WELL
AS STORMS COULD TRAIN ACROSS THE SAME AREAS RESULTING IN FLOODING.
A FLASH FLOOD WATCH IS IN EFFECT FOR THE AREA MAINLY NORTH OF
INTERSTATE 20 AND EAST OF INTERSTATE 55 THROUGH LATE TONIGHT.  AN
18Z SOUNDING WILL BE CONDUCTED TODAY IN AN ATTEMPT TO PROVIDE A
CLEARER PICTURE OF HOW THINGS WILL PAN OUT ACROSS THE CWA TODAY.

FOR AREAS FURTHER SOUTH OF INTERSTATE 20...MODELS CONTINUE TO
INDICATE THE CAP HOLDING STRONG THROUGH THE DAY.  WHILE SHOWERS AND
THUNDERSTORMS ARE EXPECTED TO DEVELOP OVER THIS AREA THROUGH THE
AFTERNOON...WITH THIS STRONG CAP IN PLACE...ACTIVITY SHOULD BE A
LITTLE MORE SUBDUED THAN OVER AREAS FURTHER TO THE NORTH.

UPDATED GRIDS AND ZONES HAVE ALREADY BEEN SENT.

&&

.AVIATION...THE MAIN FOCUS WILL TRYING TO TIME THE CONVECTION TODAY.
THIS WILL BE TOUGH AS A LARGE WINDOW WILL EXIST WHERE STORMS WILL BE
POSSIBLE FORE SITES ALONG AND N OF I-20. THE WORST OVERALL
CONDITIONS FOR FLYING THROUGH THIS EVENING SHOULD BE ALONG THE
HIGHWAY 82 CORRIDOR (INCLUDING GLH...GWO AND GTR).
OTHERWISE...MULTIPLE STORMS AND STORM CLUSTERS ARE ANTICIPATED FROM
LATE MORNING THROUGH EVENING. OUTSIDE THE STORMS...MVFR CEILINGS
WILL OCCUR FOR MOST SITES. SITES ALONG AND S OF I-20 MAY SEE
CEILINGS EXCEED 3 KFT AS TEMPS WARM TO THE MID 70S...BUT THESE WILL
GET REDUCED NEAR STORMS AND THEN AGAIN BY 01-03Z. COLDER AIR WILL
MOVE IN AFTER MIDNIGHT AND LOOK FOR IFR CEILINGS TO DEVELOP.

IFR TO MVFR CEILINGS WILL REMAIN UNTIL SUNDAY WITH SOME LIFR
CONDITIONS POSSIBLE AS WELL. THERE WILL ALSO BE SOME LIGHT SNOW
DEVELOP OVER THE NE HALF OF THE AREA SAT NIGHT. ALL CONDITIONS
SHOULD IMPROVE BY SUN AFTERNOON. /BB/

509 AM CST FRI FEB 27 2009

THIS HAZARDOUS WEATHER OUTLOOK IS FOR AREAS ALONG AND NORTH OF I-20
ACROSS SOUTHEAST ARKANSAS...NORTHEAST LOUISIANAN MOST OF CENTRAL
MISSISSIPPI.

.DAY ONE...TODAY AND TONIGHT

SCATTERED TO NUMEROUS SEVERE THUNDERSTORMS WILL BE POSSIBLE
FROM LATE MORNING THROUGH THIS EVENING...ESPECIALLY FOR AREAS
BETWEEN HIGHWAY 82 AND I-20. SEVERAL SUPERCELL THUNDERSTORMS AND
OTHER STORM CLUSTERS WILL BE POSSIBLE IN THIS REGION AND THEY ALL
COULD PRODUCE LARGE HAIL...BETWEEN QUARTER AND GOLF BALL SIZE WITH
SOME HAIL STONES POSSIBLY LARGER WITH THE MOST INTENSE STORMS. OTHER
RISKS WILL COME FROM DAMAGING WINDS AND POSSIBLE
TORNADOES...ESPECIALLY FROM ANY SUPERCELL STORM THAT OCCURS CLOSER
TO I-20. GENERALLY SPEAKING...THERE IS NO REAL SPECIFIC TIME WHEN
STORMS WILL OCCUR. FORECASTS MODELS AND CONDITIONS APPEAR TO FAVOR A
LARGE WINDOW OF TIME WHERE MULTIPLE SEVERE STORMS WILL BE POSSIBLE
AND INDIVIDUAL STORMS MOVE EAST SOUTHEAST WHILE ADDITIONAL ACTIVITY
REDEVELOPS BACK TO THE WEST. THE RESULT COULD BE A RATHER HIGH END
EVENT FOR A FOCUSED PORTION OF THE SERVICE AREA.

DUE TO THE REPETITIVE NATURE OF THIS EVENT...SOME LOCATIONS WILL SEE
MULTIPLE ROUNDS OF STORMS WHICH WILL RESULT IN LOCALLY HEAVY
RAINFALL. AREAS EAST OF I-55 AND BETWEEN I-20 AND HIGHWAY 82 LOOK TO
HAVE THE GREATEST POTENTIAL TO SEE 3 TO 5 INCHES OF RAIN. IF THIS
OCCURS...FLASH FLOODING WILL BE POSSIBLE.

AROUND AND AFTER MIDNIGHT...A MORE POTENT UPPER LEVEL DISTURBANCE
WILL HEAD OUR WAY AND HELP TO INCREASE STORM ACTIVITY ALONG THE COLD
FRONT AS IT PUSHES EAST. LOCATIONS ALONG AND EAST OF THE NATCHEZ
TRACE COULD SEE ISOLATED SEVERE STORMS WITH HAIL AND WIND DAMAGE THE
MAIN RISK.

.DAYS TWO THROUGH SEVEN...SATURDAY THROUGH THURSDAY

LIGHT SNOW WILL BE POSSIBLE SATURDAY EVENING INTO EARLY SUNDAY
MORNING FOR AREAS MAINLY ALONG AND NORTHEAST OF A GREENWOOD TO
MERIDIAN LINE. SNOWFALL ACCUMULATIONS SHOULD REMAIN AT OR BELOW AN
INCH. PLEASE CONTINUE TO CHECK BACK TO LATER FORECASTS CONCERNING
THIS POSSIBLE WINTER WEATHER.

.SPOTTER CALL TO ACTION STATEMENT...
THE ACTIVATION OF STORM SPOTTERS...HAM RADIO OPERATORS...AND
EMERGENCY MANAGEMENT PERSONNEL IN SUPPORT OF SEVERE WEATHER
OPERATIONS...WILL BE NEEDED TODAY INTO TONIGHT.
OTHERWISE...ACTIVATION IS NOT EXPECTED THROUGH NEXT THURSDAY.

509 AM CST FRI FEB 27 2009

THIS HAZARDOUS WEATHER OUTLOOK IS FOR PORTIONS OF EAST CENTRAL
LOUISIANA AND SOUTHERN MISSISSIPPI...MAINLY AREAS SOUTH OF I-20.

.DAY ONE...TODAY AND TONIGHT

AN ISOLATED SEVERE THUNDERSTORM MAY BE POSSIBLE SOUTH OF I-20 THIS
AFTERNOON. IF ONE CAN DEVELOP...IT WILL QUICKLY BECOME SEVERE AND
PRODUCE LARGE HAIL...UP TO GOLF BALL SIZE...ALONG WITH DAMAGING WINDS
AND POSSIBLY A TORNADO. THE BEST TIME FRAME FOR ANY SEVERE STORMS TO
DEVELOP WILL BE AFTER MIDNIGHT AS THE COLD FRONT PUSHES THROUGH
SOUTHERN MISSISSIPPI. HAIL AND DAMAGING WINDS WILL BE THE MAIN
CONCERN DURING THIS TIME.

.DAYS TWO THROUGH SEVEN...SATURDAY THROUGH THURSDAY

THE PROBABILITY FOR WIDESPREAD HAZARDOUS WEATHER IS LOW.

.SPOTTER CALL TO ACTION STATEMENT...
THE ACTIVATION OF STORM SPOTTERS...HAM RADIO OPERATORS...AND
EMERGENCY MANAGEMENT PERSONNEL IN SUPPORT OF SEVERE WEATHER
OPERATIONS...MAY BE NEEDED THIS AFTERNOON AND OVERNIGHT. OTHERWISE...
