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.

REKWhat forecasters said that day
The local office's own words before this severe thunderstorm warning went out, as it sent them, from the Iowa Environmental Mesonet's archive of National Weather Service text.
NWS Wilmington, NC wrote its last area forecast discussion before this severe thunderstorm warning went out at Apr 28, 7:47 AM EDT, 1 hour 50 minutes earlier.
Area forecast discussion, Apr 28, 7:47 AM EDT, 1 hour 50 minutes before
AREA FORECAST DISCUSSION
NATIONAL WEATHER SERVICE WILMINGTON NC
747 AM EDT THU APR 28 2011
.SYNOPSIS...
A COLD FRONT WILL BRING STRONG TO SEVERE THUNDERSTORMS TO THE
EASTERN CAROLINAS TODAY. THE FRONT WILL PUSH OFF THE COAST
TONIGHT...GIVING WAY TO DRY AND COOLER HIGH PRESSURE FOR THE
WEEKEND. ABOVE NORMAL TEMPERATURES WILL RETURN ON THE BACKSIDE OF
THE HIGH SUNDAY AND MONDAY. THE NEXT CHANCE FOR RAIN WILL
ACCOMPANY A COLD FRONT NEXT TUESDAY.
&&
.NEAR TERM /THROUGH TONIGHT/...
AS OF 730 AM THURSDAY...CONVECTION IS JUST STARTING TO MOVE INTO
WESTERN PORTIONS OF THE FORECAST AREA. RUC/NAM SHOW A SECOND LINE
OF CONVECTION DEVELOPING AHEAD OF THE FRONT THIS AFTERNOON. STORMS
MOVING INTO THE AREA ARE ORIENTED ALONG AN SRH GRADIENT...WITH THE
HIGHEST SRH BEHIND THE LINE. LOW LEVEL WINDS ARE VEERING AHEAD OF
THE LINE...DECREASING HELICITY AND SUGGESTING THAT THE TORNADO
THREAT MAY BE EVOLVING INTO A DAMAGING WIND/LARGE HAIL THREAT.
THIS TREND SHOULD CONTINUE THROUGH THE REMAINDER OF THE WARNING.
HAVE NOT MADE MUCH IN THE WAY OF CHANGES TO THE FORECAST...BUT
SHOULD SUN START TO BREAK OUT AND PRECIP ARRIVE A LITTLE
LATER...ESPECIALLY ALONG THE COAST...HIGH TEMPS MAY NEED TO BE
BUMPED UP.
&&
.SHORT TERM /FRIDAY THROUGH SATURDAY NIGHT/...
AS OF 3 AM THURSDAY...DRY HIGH PRESSURE WILL DOMINATE THROUGH THE
PERIOD. TEMPERATURES WILL BE SEVERAL DEGREES COOLER BY DAY...AND
AS MUCH AS 20 DEGREES COOLER BY NIGHT...BUT STILL NOT FAR FROM
SEASONAL NORMALS. COOLEST READINGS EXPECTED SAT MORNING...BUT
CURRENT FORECAST IS HEDGED A COUPLE DEGREES WARMER THAN GUIDANCE
AS WINDS ARE NOT EXPECTED TO DECOUPLE COMPLETELY. OTHERWISE MOS
GUIDANCE NUMBERS ARE IN CLOSE CONSENSUS AND HAVE BEEN ACCEPTED.
&&
.LONG TERM /SUNDAY THROUGH WEDNESDAY/...
AS OF 3 AM THURSDAY...ABOVE NORMAL TEMPS CREEP BACK INTO THE
PICTURE SURFACE HIGH PRESSURE ANCHORS OFF THE CAROLINA COAST AND A
FLAT UPPER RIDGE DOMINATES. NEXT SYSTEM IS SLATED FOR TUESDAY OR
TUESDAY NIGHT...SO CHANCE POPS ARE IN PLAY THERE. LATEST ECMWF AND
ESPECIALLY GFS ARE GETTING MORE AGGRESSIVE WITH THE UPPER
LOW...WHICH COULD SLOW THE FRONT DOWN EVEN MORE BUT WE ARE NOT YET
BUYING IT. TEMPS COULD EVEN BE BELOW NORMAL NEXT WEDNESDAY.
&&
.AVIATION /12Z THURSDAY THROUGH MONDAY/...
AS OF 12Z...COLD FRONT WILL APPROACH THE AREA TODAY WITH PRE-
FRONTAL CONVECTION LIKELY. EXPECT A SQUALL LINE TO APPROACH FLO
JUST AFTER 12Z AND WILL AFFECT LBT AROUND 13Z. BRIEF IFR/LIFR
LIKELY WITH GUSTY SOUTHWEST TO WEST WINDS TO 35-40 KNOTS. THE
STORMS SHOULD MOVE EAST OF THESE TERMINALS ABOUT AN HOUR AFTER
OCCURRENCE BUT WITH REDEVELOPMENT LIKELY JUST TO THE EAST OF THE
FLO/LBT TERMINALS THROUGH EARLY THIS AFTERNOON HAVE LEFT VCTS IN
TAFS FOR NOW.
THE LINE OF ACTIVITY SHOULD WEAKEN AS IT APPROACHES THE COASTAL
TERMINALS. STILL FEEL COMPELLED TO INDICATE CB/VCSH AT THE COASTAL
TERMINALS BY MID-MORNING. WITH THE FRONT APPROACHING THE BEST
THUNDERSTORMS COVERAGE AT THE COASTAL TERMINALS SHOULD BE THIS
AFTERNOON SHIFTING TO THE COASTAL TERMINALS BY MID-LATE AFTERNOON.
WILL INDICATE VCTS BY MID AFTERNOON WITH A FM GROUP FOR THE EARLY
EVENING.
MVFR CEILINGS WILL BE LIKELY OUTSIDE OF CONVECTION TODAY. AT THE
COASTAL TERMINALS SEA FOG IS DEVELOPING BUT IS MOSTLY OCCURRING AS
LOW STRATUS. THIS COULD PERSIST THROUGH MUCH OF THE
MORNING...ESPECIALLY AT MYR/CRE.
THE COLD FRONT WILL MOVE THROUGH THE FLO/LBT TERMINALS THIS EVENING
AND THE COASTAL TERMINALS BY LATE EVENING. A WIND SHIFT TO THE
SOUTHWEST WILL LIKELY PRECEDE THE COLD FRONT. VFR EXPECTED AFTER
FROPA EXCEPT THERE COULD BE SOME FOG ISSUES IF WINDS BECOME LIGHT IN
THE PRE-DAWN HOURS.
EXTENDED OUTLOOK...VFR FRIDAY AND SATURDAY. FOG POSSIBLE SUNDAY AND
MONDAY MORNINGS.
&&
.MARINE...
NEAR TERM /THROUGH TONIGHT/...
AS OF 730 AM THURSDAY...STRONG SOUTHWEST FLOW CONTINUES WITH WIND
SPEEDS SLOWLY PICKING UP THROUGH THE DAY. SPEEDS SHOULD PEAK
CLOSE TO 25 KT WITH GUSTS AROUND 30 KT. SEAS WILL CONTINUE TO
BUILD...TOPPING OUT AROUND 6 FT ACROSS ALL ZONES.
SHORT TERM /FRIDAY THROUGH SATURDAY NIGHT/...
AS OF 3 AM THURSDAY...WILL BEGIN WITH WINDS OUT OF THE NORTH...BUT
QUICKLY BACKING WEST AS AN UPPER LEVEL DISTURBANCE PASSES TO OUR
NORTH...AND ITS ASSOCIATED WEAK SURFACE TROF SWINGS DOWN INTO NC.
PURE OFFSHORE FLOW WILL REASSERT ITSELF BY SATURDAY MORNING...BUT
10-15 KT SHOULD COVER IT AS THERE IS NOT MUCH SUPPORT FOR A COLD
SURGE BEHIND THIS BOUNDARY. SEABREEZE PROCESSES WILL TAKE OVER
SATURDAY AFTERNOON WITH THE RIDGE AXIS DIRECTLY OVERHEAD. MODEST
ONSHORE WINDS EXPECTED AND WILL PERSIST THRU SAT NIGHT...WITH
SEAS HOLDING AT 2-3 FT.
LONG TERM /SUNDAY THROUGH MONDAY/...
AS OF 3 AM THURSDAY...HIGH PRESSURE OFFSHORE IS THE MAIN PLAYER.
THE RESULT WILL BE LIGHT SOUTH OR SOUTH-SOUTHWEST WINDS WITH
SPEEDS REMAINING CAPPED AT 15 KT AND SEAS GENERALLY 2-3 FT.
GRADIENT WILL NOT REALLY TIGHTEN AHEAD OF THE NEXT COLD FRONT
UNTIL BEYOND THE VALID PERIOD OF THIS CWF.
