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 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.

Area forecast discussion, May 10, 6:33 PM CDT, 2 hours 58 minutes before

AREA FORECAST DISCUSSION
NATIONAL WEATHER SERVICE SPRINGFIELD MO
633 PM CDT MON MAY 10 2010

...UPDATE TO AVIATION...

.DISCUSSION...

...SEVERE WEATHER EXPECTED THIS EVENING INTO THE OVERNIGHT HOURS
TONIGHT...

SHORT TERM (TONIGHT THROUGH WEDNESDAY NIGHT)...

ACTIVE WEATHER WEEK CONTINUES WITH A ROUND OF POTENTIALLY
SIGNIFICANT SEVERE THUNDERSTORMS TONIGHT.

STRONG DISTURBANCE EJECTING FROM THE LEE OF THE CENTRAL ROCKIES AT
THIS TIME. AT THE SFC...A WARM FRONT IS DRAPED FROM A DEVELOPING
AREA OF LOW PRESSURE IN SW KS...ROUGHLY BISECTING OK FROM NW TO
SE. A DRY LINE HAS ALSO SURGED EASTWARD OUT OF THE PANHANDLES OF
OK/TX. CONVECTION IS ALREADY FIRING ALONG THESE BOUNDARIES FOCUSED
CLOSEST TO LIFT ASSOCIATED WITH THE SFC LOW AND STRONG PVA. A 100
KT CYCLONICALLY CURVED UPPER JET CONTINUES TO ROUND THE BASE OF
THE TROUGH WITH A BROAD AREA OF STRONG SOUTHWESTERLY LOW LEVEL
WINDS (850 MB) ACROSS TX AND OK. TWO JET CORES ARE SEEN AT THE
850MB LEVEL...THE FIRST STRETCHES ACROSS E TX/OK/KS AND W MO. THE
SECOND IS LOCATED JUST BEHIND THE DRY LINE AND ORIENTED MORE WEST
TO EAST.

OVER THE NEXT FEW HOURS...WILL CONTINUE TO KEEP A CLOSE EYE ON
SUPERCELL THUNDERSTORM DEVELOPMENT ALONG/AHEAD OF THE DRYLINE IN
KS/OK. OUTSIDE OF A FEW ROUGE SHRA...OUR NECK OF THE WOODS WILL
REMAIN QUIET.

THIS WILL QUICKLY CHANGE...HOWEVER...AS WE HEAD INTO THE EVENING
HOURS. NORTHEASTWARD MOVING SUPERCELLS WILL BEGIN TO APPROACH THE
WESTERN CWA BORDER AFTER 7 PM. THE SFC LOW WILL MOVE NE INTO EAST
CENTRAL KANSAS...WITH THE WARM FRONT EXTENDING INTO FAR SW
PORTIONS OF THE CWA. IT IS LIKELY THAT JUST A NARROW CORRIDOR OF
THE WESTERN CWA WILL BE EXPOSED TO THE RICH MOISTURE OF THE WARM
SECTOR...WHICH IS WHERE THE GREATEST INSTABILITY WILL RESIDE.
SUPERCELLS THAT ENTER EXTREME SE KS AND FAR W MO WILL BE PRIMED
FOR AN EXTREME RISK OF SEVERE WEATHER...SPC/S MDT/HIGH RISK AREA
HANDLES THE AREA OF THE RISK VERY WELL. THE 12Z SUITE OF MODEL
OUTPUT OFFERS LITTLE IN THE WAY OF CHANGES TO THE EXPECTATIONS.
LOW LEVEL WINDS WILL BE STRONGLY VEERED...WITH A LARGE...CURVED
HODOGRAPH SIGNATURE. THIS IS SUPPORTIVE OF RIGHT MOVING CELLS...
PARTICULARLY WITH ANY SPLITTING CELLS OR CELLS THAT INTERACT/CROSS
THE SFC WARM FRONT. AS HAS BEEN HIGHLIGHTED...TORNADOES WITH
CELLS ALONG/WEST OF THE HWY 71 CORRIDOR HAVE THE POTENTIAL TO BE
STRONG AND LONG TRACKED. IN ADDITION...THERE IS A WIND AND HAIL
RISK...WITH HAIL TO THE SIZE OF BASEBALLS POSSIBLE IN THE MORE
INTENSE SUPERCELLS.

AS CELLS MOVE NORTHEAST DURING THE LATE EVENING AND INTO THE
OVERNIGHT HOURS THE CONCERN THEN SHIFTS TO WIND AS A STORM MODE
MORPHOLOGY IS EXPECTED. ENVIRONMENTAL WINDS WILL GRADUALLY BECOME
MORE UNIDIRECTIONAL AS THE UPPER WAVE BEGINS TO MOVE NORTH OF THE
AREA AND AS THE COLD FRONT OVERTAKES THE DRY LINE. BOWING LINE
SEGMENTS ARE EXPECTED TO EVOLVE AND SURGE NORTHEASTWARD...
TARGETING AREAS MAINLY ALONG AND NORTHEAST OF THE I44 CORRIDOR.
THE AIRMASS AS YOU GET FURTHER INTO MISSOURI WILL NOT BE AS
UNSTABLE...WHICH WILL DECREASE THE RISK FOR TORNADOES...HOWEVER
WIND FIELDS WILL REMAIN SUPPORT OF DAMAGING GUSTS AND A CONTINUING
RISK OF LARGE HAIL. STORM COVERAGE IS MOST UNCERTAIN ACROSS SOUTH
CENTRAL MISSOURI...AND IT IS POSSIBLE THAT SOME AREAS MISS OUT ON
THIS ACTIVITY.

TUESDAY THROUGH WEDNESDAY NIGHT...FORECAST CHALLENGE FOCUSES
SQUARELY ON THE PLACEMENT AND MOVEMENT OF WHAT WILL BECOME A WARM
FRONT IN OR VERY NEAR SOUTHERN MISSOURI. THIS BOUNDARY WILL
SHARPEN UP A BIT INTO TUESDAY AFTERNOON AND MOST LIKELY BE DRAPED
ACROSS SOUTHERN MISSOURI. DIFFERENTIAL HEATING SUGGESTS A RISK OF
A FEW STORMS DEVELOPING DURING THE LATE AFTERNOON POSING A LOW END
HAIL/WIND RISK. HEADING INTO TUESDAY NIGHT...A SLIGHTLY MORE
MODEST LOW LEVEL JET (40KT OR SO) WILL GRADUALLY INTERACT WITH THE
SFC BOUNDARY TO INITIATE ANOTHER ROUND OF ORGANIZED CONVECTION.
ENOUGH INSTABILITY WILL BE PRESENT TO BE CONCERNED WITH AN INITIAL
RISK OF HAIL/WIND...THOUGH THIS SHOULD TRANSITION TO A HEAVY RAIN
CONCERN HEADING INTO WEDNESDAY MORNING. THE WARM FRONT SHOULD EDGE
NORTH OF THE AREA ON WEDNESDAY...GIVING US OUR FIRST SOMEWHAT
MUGGY DAY OF THE WARM SEASON. THE NEXT IN A STRING OF UPPER
DISTURBANCES WILL GET ORGANIZED TO OUR WEST...HOWEVER ITS ARRIVAL
INTO OUR AREA WILL LIKE WAIT UNTIL LATE WED NIGHT AND MORE SO
THURSDAY. LOW TEMPS WILL BE MILD AND GOVERNED BY CLOUD COVERAGE
RAIN. HIGH TEMPS WILL RETURN TO THE 70S AREA WIDE TOMORROW...
AROUND 80F SOUTH OF THE FRONT...WITH UPPER 70S LOWER 80S ON WED.

GAGAN

LONG TERM (THURSDAY THROUGH MONDAY)...

12Z SUITE OF MODEL OUTPUT CONTINUES TO GENERALLY AGREE WITH THE
OVERALL PATTERN FOR THE EXTENDED FORECAST. A TRANSITION TO A MORE
ZONAL FLOW IS EXPECTED...THOUGH WE WILL CONTINUE TO SEE SMALLER
SCALE DISTURBANCES MOVE THROUGH THIS FLOW REGIME. THE FORECAST
CHALLENGE CONTINUES TO BE TIMING THESE SMALLER SCALE FEATURES. UNTIL
THERE IS BETTER AGREEMENT ON TIMING...THE POP FORECAST REMAINS ON
THE PESSIMISTIC SIDE AS A BAROCLINIC ZONE WILL LINGER IN AND AROUND
THE AREA INTO EARLY NEXT WEEK. THERE WILL BE DRY TIME...THOUGH A BIT
DIFFICULT TO PIN POINT AT THIS PARTICULAR TIME. FOR THIS PACKAGE...
BETTER CHANCES FOR RAIN ARE FOCUSED ON THURSDAY AND SATURDAY.
TEMPERATURE WISE...WE WILL REMAIN BELOW AVERAGE. LOWS WILL GENERALLY
BE IN THE 50S WITH HIGHS VARYING FROM THE 60S ON DAYS RAIN IS
EXPECTED TO THE LOWER 70S ON DRIER DAYS.

509 PM CDT MON MAY 10 2010

THIS HAZARDOUS WEATHER OUTLOOK IS FOR PORTIONS OF THE MISSOURI
OZARKS AND EXTREME SOUTHEAST KANSAS.

.DAY ONE...TONIGHT.

GENERALLY QUIET WEATHER CONDITIONS ARE EXPECTED FOR THE REST OF
THIS AFTERNOON. IT IS EMPHASIZED...THOUGH...THAT THIS LULL IN
THUNDERSTORM ACTIVITY WILL ONLY BE TEMPORARY.

AFTER 7 PM...AN EXTREME SEVERE WEATHER POTENTIAL WILL DEVELOP
WEST OF THE U.S. HIGHWAY 71 CORRIDOR EXTENDING FROM NEAR NEVADA
TO JOPLIN MISSOURI INCLUDING SOUTHEAST KANSAS.

WEATHER HAZARDS EXPECTED...

TORNADOES WITH THE POTENTIAL OF LONG TRACK STRONG TORNADOES...
LARGE HAIL WITH GOLF BALL SIZE HAIL LIKELY AND BASEBALL SIZE HAIL
POSSIBLE IN STRONGER STORMS...
DAMAGING WINDS NEAR 70 MPH...
AND HEAVY RAIN AND LOCALIZED FLASH FLOODING...

AREAS AFFECTED AND TIMING...

SUPERCELL THUNDERSTORMS WILL CONTINUE TO RAPIDLY DEVELOP AHEAD OF
AN EASTWARD ADVANCING DRY LINE IN THE PLAINS. AFTER 7 PM...THESE
STORMS WILL APPROACH AND MOVE INTO AREAS ALONG AND WEST OF THE
U.S. HIGHWAY 71 CORRIDOR. THUNDERSTORM MOVEMENT ACROSS THE PLAINS
INTO SOUTHEAST KANSAS AND FAR WEST MISSOURI WILL PREDOMINATELY BE
TO THE NORTHEAST. THERE IS A POTENTIAL OF RIGHT TURNING SUPERCELLS
THAT WOULD SHIFT STORM MOTION TO THE EAST OR EVEN SOUTHEAST. THE
GREATEST RISK FOR LONG TRACK TORNADOES WILL BE IN AREAS ALONG AND
WEST OF THE HIGHWAY 71 CORRIDOR.

AFTER 9 PM...THUNDERSTORMS ARE ANTICIPATED TO TRANSITION INTO A
SQUALL LINE AND TRACK EAST ACROSS THE REST OF SOUTHWEST MISSOURI.
THE PREDOMINATE SEVERE WEATHER RISKS WILL TRANSITION TO DAMAGING
WINDS UP TO 70 MPH AND QUARTER TO GOLF BALL SIZE HAIL ALONG WITH
LOCALIZED FLASH FLOODING. THE AIRMASS IN AREAS EAST OF THE
HIGHWAY 65 CORRIDOR WILL BE MORE STABLE AS THIS LINE OF STORM
MOVES TO THE EAST...WHICH WILL DECREASE THE RISK FOR TORNADOES.

.DAYS TWO THROUGH SEVEN...TUESDAY THROUGH SUNDAY.

ISOLATED THUNDERSTORMS WILL BE POSSIBLE TUESDAY NEAR A WARM FRONT
ACROSS SOUTHERN MISSOURI. A LIMITED RISK FOR SCATTERED STRONG TO
SEVERE THUNDERSTORMS WITH A POTENTIAL OF LARGE HAIL AND DAMAGING
WINDS WILL BE POSSIBLE LATE TUESDAY AFTERNOON INTO WEDNESDAY
MORNING AS THIS WARM FRONT LIFTS NORTH INTO THE CENTRAL OZARKS.
ADDITIONAL STRONG TO SEVERE THUNDERSTORMS ARE EXPECTED WEDNESDAY
NIGHT INTO THURSDAY WITH A COLD FRONT MOVING THROUGH THE OZARKS.
THE LAST ROUND OF THUNDERSTORMS IS EXPECTED FRIDAY.

FLASH FLOODING EARLY THIS WEEK WILL BE LOCALIZED NEAR
THUNDERSTORMS WITH STRONGER UPDRAFTS AND WHERE THUNDERSTORMS
TRACK OVER THE SAME AREAS. WITH MULTIPLE ROUNDS OF THUNDERSTORMS
EXPECTED DURING THE WEEK AND RAINFALL BECOMING MORE WIDESPREAD
THROUGH THE WEEK...THE FLASH FLOODING AND FLOODING POTENTIAL WILL
INCREASE AS THE GROUND BECOMES SATURATED.

.SPOTTER INFORMATION STATEMENT...

SPOTTER ACTIVATION WILL LIKELY BE NEEDED WEST OF U.S. HIGHWAY 71
AFTER 7 PM. SPOTTER ACTIVATION WILL LIKELY BE NEEDED AFTER 9 PM
AND INTO THE OVERNIGHT HOURS EAST OF U.S. HIGHWAY 71.
