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 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, May 29, 5:29 PM CDT, 2 hours 37 minutes before
AREA FORECAST DISCUSSION
NATIONAL WEATHER SERVICE HASTINGS NE
529 PM CDT SUN MAY 29 2011
.UPDATE...SENT AN UPDATE TO THE FORECAST TO ACCOUNT FOR ADDITION
OF SEVERE THUNDERSTORM WATCH UNTIL 11 PM CDT THIS EVENING ACROSS
SMITH...JEWELL...OSBORNE...AND MITCHELL COUNTIES IN NORTH CENTRAL
KANSAS...WHERE PROXIMITY OF WARM FRONT AND PRESENCE OF AMPLE
INSTABILITY WILL ALLOW ANY STORMS THAT ARE ABLE TO DEVELOP ACROSS
THIS AREA TO RAPIDLY BECOME SEVERE...WITH LARGE HAIL AND DAMAGING
WINDS EXPECTED TO BE THE PRIMARY THREAT. NO OTHER CHANGES MADE TO
INHERITED FORECAST AT THIS TIME.
&&
.PREV DISCUSSION... /ISSUED 342 PM CDT SUN MAY 29 2011/
SHORT TERM...THROUGH 12Z TUESDAY...PRIMARY FORECAST CONCERNS CENTER
UPON CHANCES FOR PRECIPITATION TONIGHT THROUGH MONDAY NIGHT...AS
WELL AS POTENTIAL SEVERE WEATHER. MORNING UPPER AIR ANALYSIS
INDICATES A TROUGH OVER THE WEST COAST WITH RIDGING OVER THE EAST.
MID AND UPPER LEVEL FLOW ACROSS THE CENTRAL PLAINS REMAINS FROM
THE SOUTHWEST AS A RESULT...AND A MID LEVEL LOW IS NOTED AT THE
BASE OF THE UPPER LEVEL TROUGH. AN 80KT MID LEVEL JET STREAK IS
ALSO NOTED ROUNDING THE BASE OF THE MID LEVEL LOW. AT THE SURFACE
A WARM FRONT IS NOTED EXTENDING FROM NORTHWEST KANSAS INTO NORTH
CENTRAL KANSAS AND ON INTO SOUTHEASTERN NEBRASKA. PERSISTENT LOW
LEVEL WAA AND RESULTANT ISENTROPIC UPGLIDE AND SATURATION
CONTINUES TO PROMOTE STRATUS ACROSS MUCH OF NEBRASKA STILL NORTH
OF THE WARM FRONT...WITH CLEAR SKIES OBSERVED FARTHER SOUTH.
DRY CONDITIONS SHOULD PERSIST FOR THE MOST PART THIS AFTERNOON AND
EVENING...WITH THE ONLY EXCEPTION PERHAPS RESIDING ACROSS OUR
EXTREME SOUTHEAST...ALONG AND SOUTHEAST OF THE WARM FRONT. PROXIMITY
SOUNDINGS FROM THE OPERATIONAL GFS...NAM AND LAPS CONTINUE TO
INDICATE VERY WARM MID-TROPOSPHERIC TEMPERATURES REMAIN IN THE
AREA...WHICH SHOULD KEEP SURFACE-BASED CONVECTION AT BAY. THAT BEING
SAID...THERE IS SOME CONCERN THE CAP COULD WEAKEN JUST ENOUGH
TOWARDS SUNSET AS THE MID LEVELS COOL...AND THERE COULD BE JUST
ENOUGH LOW LEVEL CONVERGENCE AND RESULTANT FORCING ALONG THE WARM
FRONT...FOR CONVECTIVE INITIATION DURING THE EVENING HOURS.
ALTHOUGH NOT LIKELY...SHOULD THUNDERSTORMS DEVELOP THEY WOULD LIKELY
QUICKLY TURN SEVERE WITH SBCAPE VALUES NEAR 5000J/KG ALONG AND SOUTH
OF THE WARM FRONT. IN ADDITION...DEEP LAYER BULK SHEAR IN EXCESS OF
40KTS WILL ALSO BE PRESENT. GIVEN ALL THIS...WENT AHEAD AND
INTRODUCED SLIGHT CHANCE POPS TO OUR EXTREME SOUTHEAST FOR THIS
EVENING...AS WELL AS SEVERE WORDING IN THE HWO.
A STOUT LLJ NEAR 70KT IS STILL EXPECTED TO PUSH INTO THE AREA
OVERNIGHT TONIGHT...WITH THE BULK OF LOW LEVEL THETA-E ADVECTION
EXPECTED ACROSS OUR EXTREME NORTH/NORTHEAST. PRECIPITATION IS NOT
LIKELY TONIGHT...HOWEVER FORECAST PROXIMITY SOUNDINGS SUGGEST
PARCELS ASCENDING FROM AROUND 600MB WOULD HAVE VERY LITTLE CIN WITH
50-100J/KG CAPE. GIVEN THE POTENTIAL ELEVATED INSTABILITY AND
FORCING ALONG THE NOSE OF THE LLJ...WENT AHEAD AND INTRODUCED SLIGHT
CHANCE POPS ACROSS OUR NORTH/NORTHEAST 06Z-12Z MONDAY.
AN INCREASING LOW LEVEL PGF AND VERY STRONG LOW TO MID LEVEL WINDS
WILL RESULT IN A VERY WINDY DAY ACROSS THE CWA ON MONDAY. AT THIS
TIME IT APPEARS THE STRONGEST LOW LEVEL PGF WILL RESIDE ACROSS OUR
EASTERN CWA. THAT BEING SAID...FORECAST PROXIMITY SOUNDINGS SUGGEST
OUR DEEPEST MIXING WILL OCCUR ACROSS OUR WEST/SOUTHWEST. MIXING TO
NEAR 600MB...PERHAPS HIGHER...IS CURRENTLY FORECAST WITH WINDS NEAR
60KTS READY AND WAITING. ASSUMING SOME LOSS IN WIND INTENSITY DURING
MOMENTUM TRANSFER TO THE SURFACE STILL YIELDS WIND GUSTS IN EXCESS
OF 50KTS AT THE SURFACE AND AS A RESULT...KEPT THE HIGH WIND WATCH
GOING FOR OUR WEST. ALSO WENT AHEAD AND ISSUED A WIND ADVISORY FOR
POINTS FARTHER EAST WHERE WINDY CONDITIONS WILL ALSO EXIST...BUT THE
GUST POTENTIAL WILL NOT BE AS HIGH.
MODEL GUIDANCE CONTINUES TO SUGGEST A COLD FRONT WILL SURGE ACROSS
THE CWA DURING THE LATE AFTERNOON AND EVENING HOURS MONDAY. ALTHOUGH
THERE ARE DISAGREEMENTS BETWEEN THE OPERATIONAL GFS AND NAM
REGARDING FROPA TIMING...THE OVERALL CONSENSUS IS CONVECTION WILL
INITIATE ALONG THE BOUNDARY AND PUSH ACROSS THE CWA...WITH LOCATIONS
NORTH OF I-80 MORE FAVORED FOR SEVERE WEATHER DUE TO INCREASED MID
LEVEL DPVA AND WAA AHEAD OF A NEGATIVELY TITLED SHORT WAVE AXIS.
SBCAPE VALUES OF 2000-3000J/KG ARE CURRENTLY EXPECTED AHEAD OF THE
SURFACE FRONT...WITH DEEP LAYER BULK SHEAR VALUES APPROACHING 50KTS.
OBVIOUSLY THESE CONDITIONS WILL PROMOTE ROBUST UPDRAFTS
WITH THE POTENTIAL FOR SIGNIFICANT HAIL PRODUCTION. GUSTY WINDS WILL
ALSO BE A PRIMARY SEVERE THREAT ON MONDAY. CONVECTION IS EXPECTED TO
QUICKLY PUSH EAST AS A LOW LEVEL COLD POOL HELPS PROPEL THE LOW
LEVEL BAROCLINIC ZONE EASTWARD...WITH PRECIPITATION EXPECTED TO COME
TO AN END BY 06Z TUESDAY OR SHORTLY AFTER.
LONG TERM...TUESDAY THROUGH SUNDAY. BEHIND THE WEATHER MAKER
SYSTEM ON MONDAY...TUESDAY WILL BE A DRY DAY WITH SFC BOUNDARY WELL
TO THE EAST AND THE UPPER LOW LIFTING FM THE DAKOTAS INTO MANITOBA.
THE UPPER RIDGE AXIS WILL BE ORIENTED ACROSS THE SOUTHEAST THIRD OF
THE CONUS WHILE ANOTHER UPPER LOW DIGS ALONG THE WEST COAST.
WESTERLY DRY DOWNSLOPE FLOW WILL BE IN PLACE ACROSS OUR REGION AND
IN THE COOLER AIRMASS TEMPS WILL CLOSER TO SEASONAL HIGHS IN THE
UPPER 70S TO LOWER 80S.
TUESDAY NIGHT INTO WEDNESDAY...SOUTHERLY RETURN FLOW DRAWS MOISTURE
BACK INTO OUR REGION WITH SFC DPS RISING FROM THE 40S TUESDAY NIGHT
BACK INTO THE 60S ON WEDNESDAY. GOOD MID LEVEL WAA IS PROGGED AS
WARM FRONTAL BOUNDARY LIFTS NORTH AND INCREASING INSTABILITY/SHEAR
IS PROGGED IN THE VCNTY OF THE FRONT. THE GFS LIFTS BOUNDARY
FARTHER NORTH FASTER THAN NAM SO ITS SOMETHING TO KEEP AN EYE ON FOR
POSITION BUT CANNOT COMPLETELY RULE OUT STRONG/SEVERE STORM
POTENTIAL IN VCNTY OF BOUNDARY. INSTABILITY PROGS INDICATE
2000/3000 J/KG CAPE ALONG THE BOUNDARY WITH SHEAR PARAMETERS AROUND
30KTS. CONVECTIVE CHCS CARRY INTO WEDNESDAY NIGHT AS HIGH PLAINS
CONVECTION MAY MOVE INTO AREA AS ENERGY TRANSLATES NE IN SW FLOW
ALOFT.
THE UPPER RIDGE AXIS BUILDS NORTH ONTO THE PLAINS ON THURSDAY AS THE
UPPER TROUGH DEEPENS OVER THE ROCKIES. THE UPPER RIDGE AXIS SHIFTS
EAST BY THE END OF THE WEEK WITH MORE SOUTHWESTERLY FLOW ALOFT
SETTING UP ACROSS THE PLAINS...THEN RIDGE AXIS RETROGRADES/REBUILDS
ACROSS THE PLAINS OVER THE WEEKEND. CANNOT COMPLETELY RULE OUT
CONVECTIVE POTENTIAL THURSDAY NIGHT INTO THE FIRST PART OF THE
WEEKEND UNTIL RIDGE AXIS AN BE REESTABLISHED BUT PREFER TO NOT
BLANKET POPS ATTM AND WILL GO WITH A MAINLY DRY FCST FOR NOW.
PREV DISCUSSION... /ISSUED 1242 PM CDT SUN MAY 29 2011/
AVIATION...18Z KGRI TAF. LIFR CONDITIONS TO CONTINUE AT KGRI
THROUGH THE AFTERNOON...WITH VFR CONDITIONS HOPEFULLY PRESENTING
THEMSELVES BY THIS EVENING. THE WARM FRONT...CURRENTLY LOCATED
NEAR THE NEBRASKA/KANSAS BORDER...WILL CONTINUE LIFTING NORTHWARD
TODAY. LOCATIONS NEAR AND NORTH OF THIS WARM FRONT...INCLUDING
KGRI...WILL CONTINUE OBSERVING LOW CEILINGS AND VISIBILITY
RESTRICTIONS IN FOG AND -DZ. IMPROVING CONDITIONS WILL NOT BE
OBSERVED AT THE TERMINAL UNTIL THE WARM FRONT CLEARS THE AREA.
FORECAST CONFIDENCE IS FAIRLY HIGH AT THIS TIME...HOWEVER IT IS
IMPORTANT TO REMEMBER THAT IMPROVING CONDITIONS ARE HIGHLY
DEPENDENT UPON THE SPEED OF THE SURFACE BOUNDARY. ANY DEVIATION IN
FRONT SPEED WILL HAVE SIGNIFICANT IMPACTS TO THE GOING FORECAST.
THE LOW LEVEL WIND FIELD WILL REMAIN FROM THE EAST UNTIL THE FRONT
CLEARS...AT WHICH TIME WINDS WILL TRANSITION TO THE
SOUTH/SOUTHEAST AND INTENSIFY.
