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, Aug 13, 4:50 PM EDT, 1 hour 29 minutes before

AREA FORECAST DISCUSSION
NATIONAL WEATHER SERVICE GRAND RAPIDS MI
450 PM EDT SAT AUG 13 2011

LATEST UPDATE...ALL BUT AVIATION...

.SYNOPSIS...(450 PM EDT SAT AUG 13 2011)
THE SLOW MOVING LOW PRESSURE SYSTEM...CENTERED OVER SOUTHERN LAKE
MICHIGAN DURING THE MID AFTERNOON WILL MOVE EAST TO WESTERN
NEW YORK BY SUNDAY MORNING THEN OFF THE EAST COAST BY MID MORNING
MONDAY. SHOWERS AND ISOLATED THUNDERSTORMS WILL CONTINUE INTO SUNDAY
AFTERNOON.  A LARGE SLOW MOVING HIGH PRESSURE SYSTEM WILL BRING
MOSTLY CLEAR SKIES AND PLEASANT MID SUMMER TEMPERATURES MONDAY AND
TUESDAY.

&&

.SHORT TERM...(450 PM EDT SAT AUG 13 2011)
(THIS EVENING INTO TUESDAY)
THE PRIMARY ISSUE IS THE CONVECTION THIS EVENING. THERE WILL BE SOME
INSTABILITY IN THE GRR CWA INTO SUNDAY AFTERNOON... THUS THE TREAT
OF SHOWERS AND THUNDERSTORMS WILL CONTINUE INTO SUNDAY AFTERNOON.

THE BEST INSTABILITY IS JUST OUT AHEAD OF THE SURFACE LOW. THE
SURFACE LOW AT 20Z WAS OVER SOUTHERN LAKE MICHIGAN. THE LINE OF
STORMS WILL BE EAST OF THE CWA BY EARLY THIS EVENING IS IT MOVES
AHEAD OF THE SURFACE LOW TAPPING THE BEST INSTABILITY AS IT GOES
EAST. THE CONVECTIVE LINE SHOULD BE EAST OF THE CWA BY 7 PM.

THERE IS SOME WRAP AROUND MOISTURE WITH THIS SYSTEM AS IT IS A
DEEPENING UPPER TROUGH WITH CLOSED UPPER LOW AT 500 MB AT 20Z. AS
SEEN ON BOTH THE WATER VAPOR LOOPS AND RUC MODEL FORECAST THERE IS
BOTH A CLOSED UPPER LOW OVER NORTHERN LOWER MICHIGAN AND A STRONG
SHORTWAVE ASSOCIATED WITH CONVECTION OVER SOUTHERN LAKE MICHIGAN.
THE SHORTWAVE OVER LAKE MICHIGAN TAKES OVER THE AS THE DOMINANT
SYSTEM OVER TIME TONIGHT. THIS WILL RESULT IN A DEFORMATION ZONE
RAIN BAND OVER OUT CWA A GOOD PART OF THE NIGHT. WHICH WILL KEEP THE
SHOWERS GOING INTO SUNDAY. THE TQ INDEX STAYS AT OR ABOVE 15C ON THE
GFS UNTIL MID AFTERNOON SUNDAY AFTERNOON.  THAT BEING SO... I KEEP
ISOLATED THUNDERSTORMS IN THE FORECAST INTO SUNDAY AFTERNOON.

BEHIND THIS A UPSTREAM SHORTWAVE RIDGE FOLLOWS AND THAT WILL BRING
CLEARING SKIES SUNDAY EVENING. MOSTLY CLEAR SKIES AND LIGHT WINDS
WILL LAST THROUGH MONDAY AND TUESDAY THANKS TO THE SLOW MOVING
SURFACE HIGH.

&&

.LONG TERM...(450 PM EDT SAT AUG 13 2011)
(TUESDAY NIGHT THROUGH SATURDAY)
THE MODEL SIMILAR ON THE SYSTEM THE MOVES FROM THE GULF OF ALASKA
THROUGH SOUTHERN CANADA INTO THE GREAT LAKES BY THURSDAY. THIS
SYSTEM STILL LOOKS LIKE IT HAS DECENT UPPER AIR SUPPORT AND WILL
LIKELY BRING SHOWERS AND THUNDERSTORMS TO THE AREA THURSDAY AS IT
MOVES THROUGH. SHORTWAVE RIDGING FOLLOWS THAT... BUT THEN THE MODELS
DEPART FROM THAT POINT ON. THE ECMWF DEVELOPS A MUCH STRONGER UPPER
AIR SYSTEM THAT CROSSES NORTHERN PLAINS BY SATURDAY A FAIRLY DEEP
UPPER TROUGH THAN THE GFS DOES. THE ECMWF SOLUTION BUILDS A MUCH
STRONG SHORTWAVE RIDGE IN FRONT OF IT VERSE THE GFS SO THE NEXT
SYSTEM TO BRING THUNDERSTORMS TO THE AREA WOULD NOT REACH HERE TILL
SUNDAY ON THE ECMWF... VERSE SATURDAY ON THE GFS. TO EARLY TO TELL
WHICH IS BEST.

&&

.AVIATION...(140 PM EDT SAT AUG 13 2011)
HEAVY RAIN IN THUNDERSTORMS WILL BRING AREAS OF MVFR AND BRIEF IFR
CONDITIONS FOR ALL THE TAF SITES INTO THE NIGHT. SOME MVFR... AND
POSSIBLY IFR... FOG FORMING TONIGHT. MVFR CEILINGS SHOULD CONTINUE
THROUGH SUNDAY AS A SLOW MOVING LOW WILL STILL BE IN THE AREA.

&&

.MARINE...(450 PM EDT SAT AUG 13 2011)
I HAVE EXTENDED THE SMALL CRAFT ADVISORIES INTO SUNDAY AFTERNOON
BEST ON THE STRONG NORTH WINDS THAT FOLLOW LATER TONIGHT INTO SUNDAY
AFTERNOON. RIDGING MOVING INTO THE AREA SUNDAY NIGHT INTO MONDAY
WILL BRING LIGHT WINDS... AND MINIMAL WAVE ACTION.

&&

.HYDROLOGY...(450 PM EDT SAT AUG 13 2011)
LOCALIZED HEAVY RAINFALL HAS RESULTED IN ISSUING VARIOUS FLASH FLOOD
WARNINGS AND ADVISORIES FROM BOTH THE EARLY MORNING CONVECTION AND
THE AFTERNOON CONVECTION. RAINFALL TONIGHT AND SUNDAY SHOULD BE MUCH
LESS SIGNIFICANT. DRY WEATHER MONDAY INTO WEDNESDAY WILL GIVE TIME
FOR THE RIVERS AND STREAM SO TRANSPORT MOST OF TODAY'S RAINFALL INTO
OR AT LEAST TOWARD LAKE MICHIGAN.
