Local storm reports filed while the alert was in force, from inside its polygon or its counties.

Did it verify

Not verified. The Iowa Environmental Mesonet's Cow found no qualifying storm report inside this flash flood 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.

The nearest sounding before it

Lincoln, IL (KILX), launched 00:00Z, 7.8 hours before the alert went out and 111 km from the middle of its area. This is the routine balloon launch nearest before it, the air the forecaster had in hand, not a measurement taken for the alert.

What forecasters said that day

The local office's own words before this flash flood warning went out, as it sent them, from the Iowa Environmental Mesonet's archive of National Weather Service text.

NWS Lincoln, IL wrote its last area forecast discussion before this flash flood warning went out at Jun 27, 2:22 AM CDT, 27 minutes earlier.

Area forecast discussion, Jun 27, 2:22 AM CDT, 27 minutes before

AREA FORECAST DISCUSSION
NATIONAL WEATHER SERVICE LINCOLN IL
222 AM CDT MON JUN 27 2011

.DISCUSSION...
ISSUED 222 AM CDT MON JUN 27 2011

FIRST OF TWO BOW ECHO SYSTEMS STILL LINGERS ACROSS THE EAST
CENTRAL CWA...HAVING FORMED A MORE EAST-WEST ORIENTATION ALONG A
WIND SHIFT LINE. THE SECOND...AND MORE POWERFUL...SQUALL LINE HAS
BEGUN PUSHING ACROSS THE FAR WESTERN CWA...HAVING ORIGINATED
ACROSS THE PLAINS SEVERAL HOURS AGO. THIS SYSTEM HAS PRODUCED
WINDS AS HIGH AS 80 MPH AROUND QUINCY...ALTHOUGH LATEST INFRARED
SATELLITE IMAGERY SHOWING A BIT OF WARMING TOPS WITH THIS MCS.
AWIPS TIME-OF-ARRIVAL TOOL PUSHES THIS ACROSS THE CWA BY AROUND
SUNRISE.

MAIN QUESTION BECOMES ON REDEVELOPMENT LATER THIS AFTERNOON. CWA
SHOULD BE IN THE WARM SECTOR BY EARLY AFTERNOON AHEAD OF A COLD
FRONT COMING IN FROM THE PLAINS. SPECIFIC LOCATIONS OF DEVELOPMENT
WILL BE A BIT TRICKY WITH LINGERING BOUNDARIES...SO WILL CONTINUE
WITH PREVIOUS FORECAST OF GENERAL POPS THIS MORNING...AND LIKELY
POPS THIS AFTERNOON. SHOULD BE A QUICK TAPERING OF THE STORMS FROM
WEST TO EAST THIS EVENING...WITH A FEW STORMS LINGERING NEAR THE
INDIANA BORDER AROUND MIDNIGHT. HIGH PRESSURE WILL THEN BUILD INTO
THE MIDWEST TUESDAY...LINGERING INTO THE FIRST PART OF WEDNESDAY.

DUE TO DEALING WITH THE ONGOING ACTIVITY...NO CHANGES ARE BEING MADE
TO THE FORECAST BEYOND WEDNESDAY.

GEELHART

.AVIATION...
ISSUED 1240 AM CDT MON JUN 27 2011

COMPLICATED TAF FORECAST WITH TWO SETS OF BOW ECHO THUNDERSTORMS
TO AFFECT THE SITES OVER THE NEXT FEW HOURS. FIRST LINE IS ABOUT
TO COME INTO KDEC/KCMI...WHILE THE SECOND LINE SHOULD BE
APPROACHING KPIA TOWARD 07Z AND KSPI BY 0730Z. HAVE HAD WINDS
GUSTING OVER 40 KNOTS WITH THESE STORMS. SURFACE OBSERVATIONS ALSO
INDICATING SOME VERY MESOSCALE FEATURES CAUSING WIND GUSTS OVER
25 KNOTS BETWEEN KPIA-KMLI. THE STORMS SHOULD LARGELY BE OUT OF
THE TAF SITES BY 10-11Z.

FUTURE REDEVELOPMENT THIS AFTERNOON IS EXPECTED AS A COLD FRONT
APPROACHES FROM THE WEST. HOWEVER...LEFTOVER BOUNDARIES FROM THE
CURRENT STORMS...AS WELL AS CONVECTIVE DEBRIS...MAKE THE TIMING OF
THE REDEVELOPMENT DIFFICULT. AS SUCH...WILL CONTINUE TO MENTION
ONLY VCTS FOR THIS AFTERNOON/EARLY EVENING UNTIL THIS BECOMES MORE
CLEAR. EVENING STORMS SHOULD HAVE EXITED THE AREA BY ABOUT 04Z.
