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.

Area forecast discussion, Apr 25, 5:18 PM EDT, 1 hour 42 minutes before

AREA FORECAST DISCUSSION
NATIONAL WEATHER SERVICE STATE COLLEGE PA
518 PM EDT MON APR 25 2011

.SYNOPSIS...
A NEARLY STATIONARY FRONTAL BOUNDARY OVER NORTHERN PENNSYLVANIA
WILL LIFT NORTHWARD INTO NEW YORK STATE ON TUESDAY. A VERY MILD
BUT UNSETTLED WEATHER PATTERN WILL CONTINUE THROUGH MID-WEEK..AS
A STRONG COLD FRONT APPROACHES THE AREA FROM THE WEST. THE COLD
FRONT IS FORECAST TO PUSH ACROSS THE KEYSTONE STATE ON THURSDAY.
COOLER WEATHER APPEARS IN STORE FOR THURSDAY INTO FRIDAY BEHIND
THE FRONT. THE FIRST PART OF THE WEEKEND LOOKS FAIR AND DRY WITH
SEASONAL TEMPERATURES.

&&

.NEAR TERM /UNTIL 10 PM THIS EVENING/...
SEVERE THUNDERSTORM WATCH #202 IN EFFECT UNTIL 02Z/10PM LOCAL
TIME...COVERING MOST OF NORTHERN AND WESTERN PA.

LATEST OBSERVATIONAL DATA INDICATES A STATIONARY FRONT IS RETREATING
NWD ACROSS N/CNTRL PA..AS WEAK SURFACE LOW PRESSURE OVER FAR ERN
IND APPROACHES THE REGION. CLEAR SKIES AND STRONG SURFACE HEATING
IN THE WARM SECTOR SOUTH OF THE FRONT /WITH TEMPERATURES CLIMBING
THROUGH THE 70S/ HAS RESULTED IN STRONG BOUNDARY LAYER
DESTABILIZATION..BOOSTING MLCAPE VALUES TO 500-1500 J/KG. VWP DATA
INDICATES VERTICAL SHEAR PROFILES ARE SUFFICIENT FOR SUPERCELL
DEVELOPMENT..WHICH IS SUPPORTED BY ISOLD CELL THAT MOVED ACRS NRN
CLEARFIELD/SE ELK AND NOW INTO CAMERON/N-CLINTON COS. LARGE HAIL
UP TO GOLF BALL SIZE HAS BEEN REPORTED WITH THIS STORM.

&&

.SHORT TERM /10 PM THIS EVENING THROUGH 6 PM TUESDAY/...
THE FRONT WILL CONTINUE TO LIFT NORTH OVERNIGHT WHICH SHOULD
SHIFT THE FOCUS FOR THE BEST CHANCES OF RAIN NORTHWARD AS WELL. IT
WILL BE A PRETTY MILD NIGHT IN MOST AREAS WITH IT EVEN BEGINNING
TO FEEL A BIT MUGGY AS DEWPOINTS CREEP UP INTO THE 50S AND 60S.

TUESDAY WILL BE WARM AND SOMEWHAT HUMID WITH SIMILAR INSTABILITY
COOKING UP IN THE WARM SECTOR WITH DAYTIME HEATING. AS THE UPPER
RIDGE BUILDS TWD THE NERN US AND CAN MARITIMES...OUR FLOW WILL
TURN MORE SOUTHWESTERLY KEEPING ANOMALOUS WARMTH AND
MOISTURE/PWATS ESTABLISHED OVER THE REGION. NAM/GFS MAKE A MESS OF
THE MAINLY LIGHT CONVECTIVE QPF THAT THEY WANT TO PRETTY MUCH KEEP
SCATTERED OVER THE REGION ALL DAY. THE CANADIAN AND ECMWF ARE MORE
CONSERVATIVE EARLY IN THE DAY...WHICH LOOKS REASONABLE...BEFORE
BUYING INTO SOMETHING THAT LOOKS MORE LIKE WHAT THE SREF DOES WITH
THE BEST CHANCES OF PRECIP DEVELOPING IN THE AFTERNOON...MAINLY
OVER THE WESTERN HALF OR SO OF THE FCST AREA. WITH GUIDANCE BEING
PRETTY MUCH ALL OVER THE MAP...THAT PART OF THE FORECAST IS A LOW
CONFIDENCE ONE.

&&

.LONG TERM /TUESDAY NIGHT THROUGH MONDAY/...
ACTIVE AND MILD WEATHER PATTERN WILL CONTINUE THROUGH MID-
WEEK...IN ADVANCE OF A STRONG COLD FRONT APPROACHING FROM THE
MIDWEST. THE COLD FRONT WILL SWEEP EWD ACRS THE REGION ON
THURSDAY AND ALLOW COOLER AIR TO INVADE THE AREA INTO FRIDAY. A
BRIEF PERIOD OF FAIR/DRY WX APPEARS IN STORE FOR SATURDAY AS HIGH
PRES MOVES OVER THE REGION. ANOTHER FRONTAL SYSTEM WILL BRING
UNSETTLED CONDITIONS BACK INTO THE FCST FOR SUNDAY INTO EARLY NEXT
WEEK.

THE THREAT OF SEVERE WEATHER AND LOCALLY HEAVY RAINFALL WILL
CONTINUE EARLY IN THE PERIOD /SLGT RISK APRIL 26-28/...AS A LARGE
UPPER TROUGH AND ATTENDANT COLD FRONT SHIFTS EWD THROUGH THE GREAT
LAKES SWD ACRS THE OH VLY/MID-SOUTH. A STRONG SLY FLOW WILL
CONTINUE TO TRANSPORT VERY MILD AND MOIST AIR INTO PA AHEAD OF
THE APPROACHING COLD FRONT...WITH PERHAPS A WRN ATLC/TROPICAL
CONNECTION. AFTN DESTABILIZATION OF WARM/HUMID AIR MASS ALONG
WITH SEVERAL S/WV DISTURBANCES EJECTING NEWD OUT AHEAD OF THE
TROUGH SUGGESTS PERIODS OF SHOWERS AND TSTMS...SOME OF WHICH MAY
BE STRONG/SEVERE AND CAPABLE OF PRODUCING HVY RNFL.

MDLS ARE IN GOOD AGREEMENT IN TIMING THE MAIN SYNOPTIC COLD
FRONT THRU THE AREA ON THURSDAY. THE 12Z GFS AND 15Z SREF SLIGHTLY
OUTPACE THE 12Z EC AND GEM GLOBAL. A CONTINUED THREAT OF STRONG TO
SVR TSTMS ALONG WITH LOCALLY HEAVY RAIN WILL PERSIST ALONG/AHEAD
OF THE CFROPA. COOLER/BELOW NORMAL AIRMASS WILL MOVE INTO THE
AREA IN THE WAKE OF THE FRONT...AS THE UPPER LEVEL TROUGH LIFTS
NEWD FROM THE GRT LKS. THE COOL AIR ALOFT AND CYC/NW FLOW THIS
TIME OF YEAR SUGGESTS SCT INSTABILITY TYPE SHOWERS ESPECIALLY OVR
THE FAVORED WESTERN HIGH TERRAIN. HIGH PRES RIDGE SHOULD ARRIVE
LATER FRI INTO SATURDAY AND PROVIDE FAIR AND DRY CONDITIONS.

ANOTHER FRONTAL SYSTEM WILL LIKELY AFFECT THE AREA SUNDAY INTO
EARLY NEXT WEEK. MEDIUM RANGE MDL DIFFS INCREASE SIGNIFICANTLY BY
THIS TIME...WITH THE GFS MUCH MORE PROGRESSIVE THAN THE ECMWF.
EXPECT TEMPERATURES TO MODERATE BACK TWD SEASONAL LEVELS AHEAD OF
THIS FEATURE.

&&

.AVIATION /20Z MONDAY THROUGH SATURDAY/...
SCT STRONG TO SEVERE TSTMS WILL BE ACRS NRN AND WRN SXNS EARLY
THIS EVENING. EXPECT VFR CONDS TO PREVAIL IN MOST AREAS THRU THE
PD.

OUTLOOK...
TUE...TSRA POSSIBLE...MAINLY W MTNS LATE.
WED...WIDESPREAD SHOWERS AND THUNDERSTORMS.
THU...MORE SHOWERS AND THUNDERSTORMS WITH THE COLD FRONT. GUSTY
WINDS AS WELL.
FRI...GUSTY WINDS...ALSO SHOWERS...ESPECIALLY ACROSS THE WEST.

&&

.CLIMATE...
HARRISBURG RAINFALL TO DATE IS 7.45". THIS MAKES IT THE SECOND
WETTEST APRIL ON RECORD...SECOND ONLY TO 1983 WHEN 7.96" OF RAIN
FELL. WITH SEVERAL DAYS YET TO GO IN THE MONTH...WE STILL HAVE
SEVERAL CHANCES AT ADDITIONAL PRECIPITATION AND A POSSIBLE SHOT AT
THE RECORD.
