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
Roanoke, VA (KRNK), launched 12:00Z, 10.1 hours before the alert went out and 99 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.

CONTINUE TO INCREASE AHEAD OF THE FRONT SLIDING SLOWLY SOUTH
TOWARD THE OHIO RIVER. THERE IS A POTENTIAL FOR MVFR TO IFR FOG AT
LWB WEDNESDAY MORNING BUT LEFT IT OUT OF THE TAF FOR NOW. THICKER
HIGH CLOUDS ADVANCING INTO SOUTHEAST WEST VIRGINIA FROM CONVECTION
IN THE OHIO VALLEY OVERNIGHT WOULD GREATLY LOWER THE THREAT OF FOG
IN LWB.
THIS COLD FRONT WILL BE BRINGING A RETURN OF SHWRS/TSTMS AND BRIEF
PERIODS OF MVFR/IFR WITH HEAVIER RAINFALL...WED-FRI...ESPECIALLY
IN THE AFTERNOON AND EVENING HOURS. WEAK HIGH PRESSURE BUILDS
