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.

What forecasters said that day

The local office's own words before this tornado warning went out, as it sent them, from the Iowa Environmental Mesonet's archive of National Weather Service text.

NWS Wichita, KS wrote its last area forecast discussion before this tornado warning went out at May 12, 3:18 PM CDT, 55 minutes earlier.

Area forecast discussion, May 12, 3:18 PM CDT, 55 minutes before

AREA FORECAST DISCUSSION
NATIONAL WEATHER SERVICE WICHITA KS
318 PM CDT WED MAY 12 2010

.DISCUSSION...

MAIN FORECAST CONCERN WILL BE CONVECTIVE EVOLUTION OVERNIGHT INTO
THU MORNING.

SYNOPSIS:
STRONG SURFACE FRONT CURRENTLY EXTENDS FROM NEAR KSLN TO NEAR MEDICINE
LODGE AND IS NOW STARTING TO VERY SLOWLY PUSH EAST. STRONG
CONVERGENCE ALONG THIS FEATURE HAS FINALLY RESULTED IN RAPIDLY
DEVELOPING STORMS OVER THE LAST HALF HOUR. IN THE UPPER LEVELS THE
SHORTWAVE IS SITUATED OVER NORTHERN CO/WY AND IS PUSHING VERY SLOWLY
EAST. A PV ANOMALY LOBE IS NOW ROTATING SOUTHWEST OF THE UPPER LOW
OVER WESTERN NM.

TONIGHT:
BY 00Z EXPECTING STORMS TO BE ONGOING ALONG THE FRONT AS IT
PROGRESSES SLOWLY EAST. NOT TOO SURE HOW MUCH IN THE WAY OF ISOLATED
STORMS THERE WILL BE AND THUS FEEL MOST OF THE ACTIVITY WILL BE
RIGHT ALONG THE FRONT. DEEP SHEAR VECTORS NEARLY PARALLEL TO THE
FRONT WILL ONLY ADD TO THE LACK OF ISO CELLS THAT WOULD BE ABLE TO
MOVE OFF THE BOUNDARY. WITH AN ABUNDANCE OF LOW LEVEL CAPE FEEL THE BEST
TOR THREAT WOULD BE AS THE STORMS INITIALLY DEVELOP ALONG THE
BOUNDARY...ESPECIALLY IF THEY CAN INGEST SOME LOW LEVEL VORTICITY
ALONG THE FRONT. SO MAIN SEVERE THREAT WILL BE EXTREMELY LARGE HAIL
AND FLOODING WITH THE THREAT OF LONGER TRACK TORS PRETTY LOW.

ONE OF THE BIG CHANGES FROM YESTERDAY'S MODEL RUNS IS HOW FAR WEST
THE FRONT ENDED UP. THIS WILL REDUCE THE CHANCES FOR SE KS TO
EXPERIENCE SVR STORMS PRIOR TO 06Z...BUT WILL INCREASE THE CHANCE
FOR THE ICT AREA TO EXPERIENCE A STORM EARLY THIS EVENING.

THU-FRI:
WILL GO WITH A SLIGHTLY SLOWER FRONTAL MOVEMENT SINCE THIS HAS BEEN
THE TREND AND THUS BY 12Z THU THE FRONT WILL STILL BE LINGERING
AROUND SE KS WHICH SOME CONVECTION PERSISTING ALONG IT. MEANWHILE
MUCH DRIER AND COOLER AIR WILL FILTER-IN ACROSS CENTRAL AND SOUTH
CENTRAL KS FOR THU. BY 06Z FRI THE PRECIP WILL BE SOUTHEAST OF THE
FORECAST AREA AS WEAK SURFACE HIGH PRESSURE BUILDS INTO THE FORECAST
AREA.

SAT-WED:
A WEAK SHORTWAVE IS EXPECTED TO LIFT OUT OF THE DESERT SW AND OUT
INTO THE PLAINS BY LATE FRI NIGHT. AS THIS OCCURS MOISTURE WILL
AGAIN SURGE NORTH AND WILL SPREAD PRECIP CHANCES ACROSS THE AREA
FROM SW TO NE STARTING FRI NIGHT WITH MUCH OF THE AREA EXPECTED TO
GET WET FOR SAT INTO SUN. GIVEN LACK OF UPPER WINDS AND WELL DEFINED
INITIATING BOUNDARY...FEEL CONFIDENT A WIDESPREAD SEVERE EPISODE IS
NOT ON TAP FOR THE WEEKEND. FEEL THE MAIN THREAT MAYBE FLOODING. BY
MON BOTH THE GFS AND ECMWF AGREE ON LIFTING THE SHORTWAVE FAR ENOUGH
EAST TO PUSH PRECIP OUT OF THE FORECAST. CONFIDENCE AFTER THE MON
TIME FRAME DECREASES AS THE GFS AND ECMWF START TO VARY ON THEIR
SOLUTION. FOR NOW WILL LEAVE PRECIP OUT AND WILL CONTINUE THE
WARMING TREND AS SOME RETURN FLOW SETS UP ACROSS THE AREA.

LAWSON

&&

.AVIATION...18Z TAFS KRSL/KSLN/KHUT/KICT/KCNU
COLD FRONT EXTENDS FROM KPTT TO KSLN. IT HAS BECOME QUASI-
STATIONARY AT THIS TIME AND SHOULD BEGIN TO MOVE TONIGHT TO THE
SOUTHEAST. FRONTOGENESIS INCREASING ALONG THE FRONT...MEANING THAT
STORMS ARE BECOMING MORE LIKELY AS THE AFTERNOON PROGRESSES.

KSLN-KRST ARE NOT IN THE TSRA THREAT. THEY WILL REMAIN AROUND 2SM
BR WITH CIGS BETWEEN 003 AND 010 FEET WITH LIGHT RAIN AND DRIZZLE.
GUIDANCE WANTS TO MOVE THIS OUT EARLIER TONIGHT...BUT THINK THIS
WILL LAST UNTIL DAYBREAK.

AS THE FRONT MOVES SOUTHEAST TONIGHT...THE REMAINING TAF SITES
/KHUT/KICT/KCNU/ WILL EVENTUALLY EXPERIENCE THESE CONDITIONS.
UNTIL THEN...THUNDERSTORMS INCREASING IN CHANCE THIS EVENING WITH
LARGE HAIL...STRONG WINDS AND TORNADOES BEING A THREAT. RIGHT
NOW...THERE IS ENOUGH UNCERTAINTY WHERE WE DID NOT PUT TSRA IN
THE TAF...ONLY WENT WITH CB IN THE CLOUD FORECAST FOR NOW AND WILL
UPDATE IS UNCERTAINTY DECREASES.
