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 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.

The nearest sounding before it

Green Bay/Straub, WI (KGRB), launched 12:00Z, 11.9 hours before the alert went out and 116 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.

.SHORT TERM...

TONIGHT AND THURSDAY - FORECAST CONFIDENCE...MEDIUM

WEAK FRONTAL BOUNDARY NOW SITUATED FROM NORTHWEST IOWA INTO

NORTHWEST IOWA. THIS WEAK LOW WILL PROGRESS TO THE NORTHEAST
TONIGHT AND THE FRONTAL BOUNDARY WILL PICK UP SPEED AND MOVE
THROUGH SOUTHERN WISCONSIN LATE TONIGHT AND THEN OUT OF THE CWA BY
LATE THURSDAY MORNING. UPPER LEVEL SUPPORT IS VERY WEAK AS TROUGH
CONTINUES TO MOVE NORTHEAST INTO SOUTHERN CANADA. ATMOSPHERE REMAINS
MOIST AND UNSTABLE WITH MUCAPE VALUES BETWEEN 500-1500 J/KG. THE
LACK OF ANY MEANINGFUL FLOW ALOFT POINTS TOWARD THE WEAK FRONTAL
BOUNDARY AS THE MAIN FOCUS FOR ANY SHOWERS AND THUNDERSTORMS
TONIGHT. NOT CONFIDENT IN MODEL QPF...BUT OVERALL THINKING IS
SHOWERS AND THUNDERSTORMS WILL SPREAD ACROSS WESTERN PORTIONS OF
CWA MAINLY LATER THIS EVENING AS FRONTAL BOUNDARY MOVES INTO
WESTERN WISCONSIN. AS FRONT MOVES THROUGH SOUTHERN WISCONSIN
DURING OVERNIGHT HOURS...SHOWERS AND THUNDERSTORMS ARE EXPECTED
MAINLY ALONG AND SOUTH OF THE FRONT. PW VALUES OF AROUND 2 INCHES
AND MOIST SOUNDINGS WILL LEAD TO EFFICIENT RAIN PRODUCERS. FRONT
PUSHES SOUTHEAST OF CWA BY MID MORNING WITH A FEW LINGERING
SHOWERS AND POSSIBLY A THUNDERSTORM LATE MORNING INTO THE EARLY
AFTERNOON.

THURSDAY NIGHT THROUGH SUNDAY - FORECAST CONFIDENCE MEDIUM

HIGH PRESSURE SETTLES IN LATER THURSDAY INTO THE EARLY PART OF THE
WEEKEND. DRIER AIR AND SEASONABLE TEMPERATURES ARE ON TAP FOR THE
PERIOD. HIGH PRESSURE MOVES SOUTHEAST BY SATURDAY WITH LOW LEVEL
FLOW SWITCHING TO THE SOUTHWEST ONCE AGAIN. LOW PRESSURE DEVELOPS
ACROSS THE PLAINS LATE SATURDAY INTO SUNDAY...WHILE WEAK COLD
FRONTAL BOUNDARY MOVES INTO NORTHERN WISCONSIN.

.LONG TERM...

SUNDAY NIGHT THROUGH WEDNESDAY - FORECAST CONFIDENCE MEDIUM

UPPER LEVEL TROUGH MOVES INTO THE NORTHERN PLAINS AND UPPER
MISSISSIPPI VALLEY...WITH A SURFACE LOW DEVELOPING IN THE
PLAINS...AND FRONTAL BOUNDARY PROGRESSING THROUGH WISCONSIN SUNDAY
AFTERNOON THROUGH MONDAY EVENING. BOTH GFS AND ECMWF ARE IN FAIRLY
GOOD AGREEMENT WITH TIMING OF THE FRONTAL PASSAGE ACROSS CWA ON
MONDAY WITH GFS SLIGHTLY SLOWER. KEEPING CHANCE POPS DURING THIS
TIME PERIOD. HIGH PRESSURE AND DRIER WEATHER MOVES IN FOR TUESDAY
INTO WEDNESDAY OF NEXT WEEK.

POSSIBLE WITH ANY STORMS.

BEST CHANCE FOR THUNDERSTORMS COMES LATER TONIGHT INTO THURSDAY
