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 flash flood 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

Roanoke, VA (KRNK), launched 12:00Z, 3.3 hours before the alert went out and 55 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, Aug 22, 7:35 AM EDT, 3 hours 45 minutes before

AREA FORECAST DISCUSSION
NATIONAL WEATHER SERVICE BLACKSBURG VA
735 AM EDT SAT AUG 22 2009

.SYNOPSIS...
COLD FRONT PUSHES SLOWLY EAST INTO THE PIEDMONT THIS
AFTERNOON...AS WAVES OF LOW PRESSURE SHIFT NORTH ALONG IT. HIGH
PRESSURE OVER THE GREAT LAKES/MIDWEST USHERS IN COOLER AND DRIER
AIR EARLY NEXT WEEK. A WARM UPPER RIDGE OF HIGH PRESSURE TRIES TO
EXTEND EAST TO THE SOUTHEAST COAST BY THE MIDDLE OF NEXT WEEK.

&&

.NEAR TERM /THROUGH TONIGHT/...

THE NC FOOTHILLS. BEST DYNAMICS WILL TRACK ALONG/EAST OF THE BLUE
RIDGE BY MIDDAY. STILL SEEING BEST POPS HERE WITH SCATTERED
CONVECTION IN THE WEST.

FFG VALUES IN THE PIEDMONT ARE RUNNING IN THE 1.6 TO 2.5 INCH
RANGE FOR 1 HOUR. HEAVY RAIN FROM THUNDERSTORMS MAY CAUSE POCKETS
OF FLASH FLOODING...BUT DUE TO ISOLATED THREAT...AND HIGHER FFG
VALUES...DECIDED TO FOREGO ISSUING A FLASH FLOOD WATCH. ALSO...

WENT WITH A BLEND OF THE ECMWF/SREF/GFS. THE NAM SHOWING TOO MUCH
FEEDBACK...ESPECIALLY AFTER 24 HOURS.

THE FRONT SHOULD STILL BE IN THE PIEDMONT OF OUR CWA BY 00Z THIS
EVENING AS UPPER FLOW PARALLELS IT. ONCE BILL SLIDES NORTH OF 40N
LAT...THE UPPER TROUGH OVER THE OHIO VALLEY WILL SLIDE EAST INTO
OUR AREA BY 12Z SUNDAY...WITH THE FRONT PUSHING TO THE VA
TIDEWATER. DRIER AIR WILL START TO MAKES IT PRESENCE KNOWN LATE
TONIGHT IN THE WEST....WHILE THE PIEDMONT REMAINS LINGERING IN A
HIGHER MOISTURE REGIME...BUT PUSH OF DRY WILL CLEAR MOST OF THE
CWA OF PRECIP TOWARD 12Z SUNDAY.

&&

.SHORT TERM /SUNDAY THROUGH MONDAY NIGHT/...
SUNDAY...AS THE UPPER COLD POOLS SHIFTS OVER THE MTNS...SHOULD SEE
SOME ISOLATED CONVECTION FIRE UP. THIS WILL WANE DURING SUNDAY
EVENING...DESPITE THE UPPER POOL BEING OVERHEAD...AS SUBSIDENCE
FROM THE HIGH WILL DRY THE LOWER LEVELS OUT.

KEPT POPS DRY FOR MONDAY...BUT CANNOT RULE OUT ISOLATED
SHOWERS/SPRINKLES OVER THE AREA...BUT MOISTURE IS LACKING.

THE DRY AIR...LOWER HUMIDITY WILL BRING TEMPS JUST BELOW SEASONAL
NORMS...WITH HIGHS IN THE 70S MTNS...80S EAST...AND LOWS IN THE
50S...LOWER 60S. THE MAIN EMPHASIS BEING THE LOWER HUMIDITY AFTER
THE SULTRY AIR WE HAVE HAD THE PAST WEEK.

&&

.LONG TERM /TUESDAY THROUGH FRIDAY/...
FOLLOWED HPCGUIDE FOR MEDIUM RANGE WHICH INCORPORATE A BLEND OF ENS
MEANS OF BOTH GFS AND ECMWF.

BY THE MIDDLE OF THE WEEK...THE UPPER RIDGE EXPANDS EAST TO THE
COAST AHEAD OF A SLOWLY SOUTHWARD SINKING FRONT NEAR THE END OF
NEXT WEEK. AHEAD OF THE BOUNDARY...THE MIDDLE ATLANTIC SHOULD HEAT
UP ONCE AGAIN WITH H85 TEMPS APPROACHING +18C. FRONTAL BOUNDARY
STALLS TO OUR SOUTH ACROSS SOUTH CAROLINA ON FRIDAY.

&&

.AVIATION /12Z SATURDAY THROUGH WEDNESDAY/...
SHOWERS/ISOLATED STORMS OVER FAR SW VA WILL IMPACT THE BLF-ROA
AREA FOR A FEW HOURS THIS MORNING...BUT NOT CONTINUALLY.
CIGS/VSBYS ARE VARIABLE ATTM...AND UNTIL RAINS TAKE SHAPE...AREAS
FROM ROANOKE EAST TO LYH/DAN WILL FLUCTUATE FROM VERY LOW
CIGS/VSBYS TO VFR CONDITIONS...DUE TO THE HIGH MOISTURE CONTENT IN
THE AIR. LWB ALSO LOOKING THE SAME FOR A FEW HOURS THIS MORNING.

AS THE DAY PROGRESSES...FOCUS WILL SHIFT TOWARD MORE SHOWERS AND
SCT STORMS FROM THE BLUE RIDG EAST. HAVE INCLUDED VCTS AT
ROANOKE/LYH/DAN THIS AFTERNOON INTO EARLY EVENING. WITH THESE
STORMS...CONDITONS WILL VFR...VARYING TO IFR.

THE BLF/LWB AREA WILL BE IN THE AREA OF MORE ISOLATED/SCATTERED
COVERAGE. NOT CONFIDENT THAT THUNDERSTORMS WILL BE THAT GREAT IN
COVERAGE TO INCLUDE HERE...BEHIND THE FRONT.

THE FRONT LINGERS IN THE PIEDMONT THIS EVENING WITH SHOWERS
CONTINUING AT LYH/DAN UNTIL MIDNIGHTISH. AFTERWARDS...FOG WILL
FORM WITH IFR CONDITIONS EXPECTED.

FURTHER WEST...ALSO EXPECTED SOME DENSE FOG AT LWB LATE THIS TAF
PERIOD...WITH MVFR FOG AT BLF/ROA.

DRIER AIR ARRIVING BEHIND THE FRONT SUNDAY WILL ALLOW FOR VFR
CONDITIONS. HOWEVER...STRONG DISTURBANCE ALOFT WILL CREATE
ENVIRONMENT FOR BKN CU...AND SCT/ISOLATED TSRA....ESPECIALLY IN
THE MTNS.

FOR SUNDAY NIGHT ONWARD...SHOULD BE MAINLY VFR EXCEPT FOR THE FOG
