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.

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 Binghamton, NY wrote its last area forecast discussion before this tornado warning went out at Jul 29, 5:11 PM EDT, 0 minutes earlier.

Area forecast discussion, Jul 29, 5:11 PM EDT, 0 minutes before

AREA FORECAST DISCUSSION
NATIONAL WEATHER SERVICE BINGHAMTON NY
511 PM EDT FRI JUL 29 2011

.SYNOPSIS...
SCATTERED SHOWERS AND THUNDERSTORMS ACROSS THE REGION TODAY IN
ADVANCE OF A COLD FRONT WHICH WILL MOVE THROUGH THE AREA THIS EVENING.
WITH A VERY MOIST AIR MASS OVER THE AREA ANY THUNDERSTORMS WILL
PRODUCE VERY HEAVY DOWNPOURS. THERE ALSO IS THE POTENTIAL FOR SOME
OF THE STORMS TO BECOME SEVERE ESPECIALLY OVER THE WESTERN
CATSKILLS, SOUTHERN TIER OF NEW YORK AND NORTHEAST PENNSYLVANIA.
HIGH PRESSURE WILL BUILD IN BEHIND THE FRONT BRINGING DRY AND
WARM WEATHER FOR SATURDAY AND SUNDAY.

&&

.NEAR TERM /UNTIL 11 PM THIS EVENING/...
AT 5 PM...UPDATE FOR NEWLY ISSUED TORNADO WATCH. MESOSCALE
ANALYSIS SHOWS AMPLE BULK SHEAR AND LOW LEVEL TURNING OVER NE PA.
MIXED LAYER CAPE REMAINS AMPLE IN THE 1500-2000 J/KG RANGE.

SEVERAL STORMS IN THIS AREA HAVE DISPLAYED ROTATIONAL
CHARACTERISTICS OVER THE LAST 2 HOURS.

THE TORNADO THREAT WILL DIMINISH ONCE THE WARM FRONT MOVES AWAY FROM THE
REGION.

AT 11 AM...AREA OF SHOWERS MOVING ACROSS OUR NY ZONES THIS
MORNING ASSOCIATED WITH A WARM FRONT. THIS HAS HELPED TO MOISTEN
THINGS UP HERE THIS MORNING AND DEW POINTS ARE NOW IN THE 70S
ACROSS ALL BUT OUR EASTERN ZONES. IF WE DEVELOP SOME BREAKS IN THE
CLOUDS ACROSS THE SOUTHERN TIER OF NEW YORK AND NORTHEAST PA AS WE
MOVE TO MID DAY WE WILL INCREASE OUR POTENTIAL FOR SEVERE
THUNDERSTORMS THIS AFTERNOON IN ADVANCE OF AN APPROACHING COLD.
SURFACE TO 1 KM BULK SHEAR VALUES ARE OVER 25 KTS FROM THE CENTRAL
SOUTHERN TIER DOWN INTO CENTRAL PA. MU CAPES ARE AROUND 1000 BUT
WE REALLY NEED SOME SUN TO DESTABILIZE THINGS FURTHER. RADAR NEAR
ERIE AREA INDICATING A POSSIBLE MCV WHICH WILL HAVE TO BE WATCHED.

PREVIOUS DISCUSSION...AT 430 AM, LOCAL RADARS SHOW NO ACTIVITY OVER THE FORECAST AREA BUT
SIGNIFICANT CONVECTION IS OCCURRING ALONG THE COLD FRONT ACROSS
LOWER MICHIGAN AND INTO NEAR SOUTHERN ONTARIO AND EXTREME WESTERN
NEW YORK IN VCNTY OF WARM FRONT. THE CONVECTION ALONG THE WARM
FRONT IN WESTERN NEW YORK IS DIVING SOUTHEAST AND SHOULD REMAIN
WEST OF FA FOR THE NEXT SEVERAL HOURS.

WARM FRONT WILL MAKE SOME PROGRESS OVER THE AREA THIS MORNING
WITH THE POTENTIAL FOR CONVECTION INCREASING TOWARD DAYBREAK.
MODELS CONTINUE TO INDICATE COLD FRONTAL PASSAGE THIS AFTERNOON
AND EVENING. NAM/GFS STILL SHOW SIGNIFICANT DIFFERENCES WITH
AMOUNT OF DESTABILIZATION THIS AFTERNOON WITH NAM SHOWING 1500-2500
J/KG ACROSS THE CENTRAL SOUTHERN TIER, WESTERN CATSKILLS AND NE
PENNSYLVANIA AND THE GFS 500-1500 J/KG. REALITY WILL PROBABLY FALL
SOMEWHERE IN BETWEEN BUT BASED ON CONVECTIVE PARAMETERS THE BEST
CHANCE FOR SEVERE WEATHER WILL BE ACROSS THE ABOVE MENTIONED AREA
AS WARM SECTOR ALONG WITH MORE SUNSHINE IS MOST LIKELY HERE. BULK
SHEAR VALUES 0-6KM AROUND 40-50 KNOTS ALONG WITH MID LEVEL SPEED
MAX AROUND 50 KNOTS MOVING THROUGH THIS AFTERNOON, ALSO SUPPORTS
THE POTENTIAL FOR SOME SEVERE WEATHER. ANY THUNDERSTORMS THAT DO
DEVELOP TODAY WILL ALSO BE ACCOMPANIED BY TORRENTIAL DOWNPOURS
WITH PWATS AROUND 2 INCHES AND WARM CLOUD LAYER OF 11-13K FT.

AS FRONT APPROACHES LATER THIS MORNING THE CHC OF PRECIP WILL
INCREASE FROM THE CHC CATEGORY INTO LIKELY AND CATEGORICAL POPS.
FROPA TIMING APPEARS AROUND 19Z AT SYR, 21Z AT BGM AND 23Z AT AVP.

MAX TEMPS ARE TRICKY AGAIN TODAY AND ALL DEPENDS ON AMOUNT OF
SUNSHINE IF ANY. CURRENT THINKING IS AROUND 80 NRN CWA AND LOWER
TO MID 80 ACROSS THE SOUTHERN TIER AND NE PA.

&&

.SHORT TERM /11 PM THIS EVENING THROUGH MONDAY NIGHT/...
2 PM UPDATE...

SATURDAY NIGHT/SUNDAY...HIGH PRESSURE REMAINS IN CONTROL WITH DRY
WEATHER EXPECTED AND MAINLY CLEAR SKIES. A SFC TROF IS JUST A BIT
FASTER THAN THE PREVIOUS FEW MODELS RUNS AND MAY BRING A SLIGHT
INCREASE IN CLOUDS LATE SUNDAY ESPECIALLY ACROSS THE FAR
NORTHWEST. 850 TEMPS IN THE MID TEENS STILL SUPPORT HIGHS WELL
INTO THE 80S SUNDAY AFTN.

MONDAY...SFC TROF COMES THROUGH WITH CONVECTION POSSIBLE FROM EARLY
MONDAY THROUGHOUT THE DAY. TOWARD AFTN. THE FOCUS SHIFTS A BIT
MORE INTO NEPA.

&&

.LONG TERM /TUESDAY THROUGH FRIDAY/...
2 PM UPDATE...

WITH THE POSSIBILITY OF SEVERE WEATHER THE LONG RANGE FORECAST
WAS DONE EARLIER TODAY WITH HPC GUIDANCE. CONSISTENT TO THE PAST
FEW DAYS A BUBBLE OF HIGH PRESSURE WILL BRING A RETURN TO DRY
WEATHER TUESDAY. BEYOND THAT MUCH UNCERTAINTY EXISTS WITH BOTH THE
GFS AND EURO SHOWING A SYSTEM DIVING DOWN WEDNESDAY INTO THURSDAY
IN THE NORTHWEST FLOW. THE MODELS CONTINUE TO HAVE TROUBLE
RESOLVING EXACT DETAILS THIS FAR OUT SO WILL CONTINUE WITH CHANCE
POPS BOTH DAYS FOR NOW. TEMPS REMAIN JUST ABOVE CLIMO...OR
GENERALLY IN THE MIDDLE 80S.

&&

.AVIATION /21Z FRIDAY THROUGH WEDNESDAY/...
2 PM UPDATE...A COLD FRONT NOW ENTERING WESTERN NY WILL SWEEP ACROSS
THE TERMINALS BY 0Z TONIGHT. CONVECTION IS POSSIBLE AHEAD OF THIS
FRONT...ESPECIALLY FROM KELM/KITH SOUTH AND EAST. WITH THE FRONT
STILL WEST OF THE NORTHERN TERMINALS CONVECTION IS NOT RULED OUT
BUT NOT QUITE AS LIKELY...THUS ONLY A CB GROUP HERE VS. A TEMPO
GROUP OF TSRA. IMMEDIATELY AFTER THE FROPA...MVFR CIGS ARE
POSSIBLE FOR A 1 TO 3 HOUR WINDOW THROUGH EARLY EVENING AT ALL
TERMINALS WITH POSSIBLE IMPROVEMENT TO VFR AFTER THAT.

AFTER A PERIOD OF VFR WEATHER EARLY TONIGHT...MOISTURE TRAPPED
UNDERNEATH AN INVERSION WILL HELP MVFR CIGS TO REDEVELOP
EVERYWHERE. MUCH UNCERTAINTY EXISTS WITH HOW THIS EVOLVES BUT I
FELT THE MOST LIKELY TIME PERIOD WOULD BE AFTER 06Z SO I WENT
PREVAILING HERE. SOME POTENTIAL THAT WE SEE THIS EARLIER THAN
PREDICTED...ESPECIALLY NY TERMINALS. VFR EXPECTED SATURDAY AFTER
15Z.

LIGHT SOUTHWEST WINDS NOW WILL RAPIDLY INCREASE JUST AHEAD OF THE
FRONT. WINDS WILL GENERALLY INCREASE TO AROUND 10 KTS THIS AFTN
OUT OF THE WEST TO WEST-NORTHWEST WITH SOME GUSTS TO 20 KTS
POSSIBLE ESPECIALLY AT KSYR AND THE ELEVATED SITES OF KBGM AND
KITH. WINDS QUICKLY DIE DOWN TONIGHT AND REMAIN LIGHT AT AROUND 5
KTS OVERNIGHT. NORTHWEST WINDS SATURDAY AT AROUND 10 KTS.

OUTLOOK...

FRIDAY OVERNIGHT TO SATURDAY MORNING...SHOWERS END EARLY BUT
SATURATED LOW LAYERS COULD CAUSE MVFR/IFR FOG AND POSSIBLY CIGS.

SATURDAY AFTN TO MONDAY...MAINLY VFR. SOME MVFR/IFR VALLEY FOG
LIKELY WITH SFC HIGH PRESSURE ESPECIALLY AT ELM.
