The radar
The Jackson/Brandon,MS radar (KDGX), 122 km from the middle of the area, began a volume at 22:20 UTC, the scan nearest the moment this went out.

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.
The nearest sounding before it
Jackson, MS (KJAN), launched 12:00Z, 10.4 hours before the alert went out and 128 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.

Area forecast discussion, Aug 5, 3:38 PM CDT, 1 hour 43 minutes before
AREA FORECAST DISCUSSION
NATIONAL WEATHER SERVICE JACKSON MS
338 PM CDT FRI AUG 5 2011
.SHORT TERM...SHOWERS AND THUNDERSTORMS WILL BE LIKELY OVER
NRN...PARTICULARLY NERN ZONES...THIS AFTERNOON AND EVENING.
CONVECTION HAS BEEN ONGOING ALONG A SURFACE BOUNDARY LOCATED TO OUR
NORTH...HELPED ALONG BY AN UPPER WAVE IN THE MIDWEST. CONVECTION
ALONG OUTFLOW ACTIVITY HAS BEEN WORKING ITS WAY SLOWLY SWD AND WILL
CONTINUE TO BUILD SWD DURING THE LATE AFTERNOON AND EVENING. UPPER
SUPPORT WILL BE SLIGHTLY BETTER IN EAST MS ON THE EXTREME SRN
FRINGES OF THE EFFECTS OF THE SHORTWAVE TO OUR NORTH. A FEW OF THESE
STORMS MAY BE SEVERE WITH DAMAGING WIND GUSTS. ISOLATED SHOWERS AND
THUNDERSTORMS WILL BE POSSIBLE OVER THE REST OF THE FORECAST AREA
THIS AFTERNOON AND EVENING ALTHOUGH RAIN CHANCES WILL BE LOW AND THE
VAST MAJORITY OF THESE AREAS WILL REMAIN DRY.
UPPER RIDGING OVER THE REGION WILL VERY GRADUALLY GIVE WAY TO
DEVELOPING UPPER TROUGHING TO OUR EAST AND INCREASING WESTERLIES TO
OUR NORTH. THE SLIGHT WEAKENING OF THE UPPER RIDGE AND AFTERNOON
CLOUD COVER FROM CONVECTION HAS TAKEN SOME OF THE EDGE OFF DAYTIME
TEMPERATURES BUT OUR HEAT WAVE WILL CONTINUES. HEAT INDICES REMAIN
FROM 105 TO 112 ACROSS THE AREA THIS AFTERNOON AND TEMPERATURES HAVE
BEEN RUNNING 2-6 DEGREES BELOW READINGS AT THE SAME HOUR YESTERDAY.
THE EXCESSIVE HEAT WARNING WILL BE ALLOWED TO EXPIRE AT 7 PM THIS
EVENING...THE HEAT ADVISORY THEN IN EFFECT ACROSS THE WHOLE FORECAST
AREA FROM 7 PM THROUGH SATURDAY. 925/850MB TEMPS HOVER AROUND THE
SAME AS TODAY THROUGH THE SHORT TERM AND SURFACE DEWPOINTS WILL
GENERALLY REMAIN IN THE LOWER TO MID 70S. THIS WILL MAINTAIN HIGH
HEAT INDEX VALUES THAT WILL HOVER AROUND 110 IN THE AFTERNOONS.
RAIN CHANCES SHOULD BE HIGHEST OVER SRN AND ERN ZONES TOMORROW
AFTERNOON AND EVENING WHEN THE UPPER TROUGH CONTINUES TO EDGE TOWARD
THE SE CORNER OF MS BY SATURDAY. THE BOUNDARY LOCATED TO
OUR NORTH TODAY IS FORECAST TO LIFT NWD...DECREASING THE POTENTIAL
FOR OUTFLOW BOUNDARIES DEVELOPING INTO NRN ZONES DURING THE DAY.
FORCING WILL INCREASE SUNDAY WHEN WEAK UPPER WAVES BEGIN TO MOVE
INTO THE AREA FROM THE NW AS THE UPPER RIDGE IS FLATTENED BY
DEVELOPING WLY FLOW TO OUR NORTH.
.LONG TERM...SUNDAY THROUGH NEXT FRIDAY...THE SUN-FRI PERIOD WILL BE
AN INTERESTING WEEK AS THE GENERAL PATTERN SHIFTS TO A NW FLOW
REGIME WHICH SHOULD ALLOW THE AREA TO TRIM BACK ON THE EXCESSIVE
HEAT THAT HAS BEEN AROUND. HOWEVER...THIS PATTERN IS NOTORIOUS FOR
HARD TO TIME STORM COMPLEXES AND WHAT IS BEING OFFERED FROM THE
GFS/EURO FITS THE NW FLOW SCENARIO VERY WELL.
IN THE TEMP DEPARTMENT...SUN-MON WILL LIKELY REMAIN HOT/HUMID WITH
HIGHS WELL ABV NORMAL AND RANGING FROM 96-100 DEGREES. LOW LEVEL
FLOW TRAJECTORIES WILL CONTAIN A SOLID WESTERLY COMPONENT WHICH WILL
KEEP THE HOT LOW LEVEL CONDITIONS IN PLACE AS THE ORIGIN OF THIS AIR
WILL COME INTO OUR AREA FROM TX/LA. BY TUE AND LASTING TO THE END OF
THE WEEK...HIGH TEMPS WILL TREND TOWARD NORMAL VALUES...THIS IS
MAINLY DUE TO THE INCREASING RAIN CHANCES AND POTENTIAL FOR STORM
COMPLEXES TO ALTER THE DIURNAL CYCLE. MY INITIAL INTUITION WOULD BE
TO WARM TEMPS AND FOLLOW WHAT HAS BEEN A HOT WEEK. HOWEVER...WITH AN
ACTIVE PATTERN FOR STORM COMPLEXES DEVELOPING...A WIDE RANGE OF
HIGHS COULD BE POSSIBLE AND THAT ALL DEPENDS ON TIMING. DUE TO
THIS...FOLLOWED GUID VALUES FOR MOST OF THE LONG TERM.
AS MENTIONED ABV...AN ACTIVE WX PATTERN LOOKS TO TAKE SHAPE FOR NEXT
WEEK. THE GLOBAL MODELS WERE INDICATING THIS YESTERDAY AND ARE IN
BETTER AGREEMENT ON THE PATTERN TONIGHT. THIS IS RESULTING IN HIGHER
CONFIDENCE OF SUCH A PATTERN OCCURRING. THE TRICKY PART IS TIMING
THE PRECIP EVENTS. THE MODELS ARE SUGGESTING THE BEST PRECIP SIGNAL
WILL BE DURING THE DAY PERIODS...BUT THERE IS POTENTIAL FOR SOME
EARLY MORNING ACTIVITY AS WELL. DUE TO THIS UNCERTAINTY IN
TIMING...WILL JUST FOLLOW THE GFS POPS WHICH ARE ONLY IN THE 20-30%
RANGE. I WOULD LIKE TO RAISE THESE VALUES...BUT THE UNCERTAINTIES IN
TIMING ARE HOLDING BE BACK. UNTIL SOME CONSISTENCY CAN BE SHOWN ON
TIMING...WILL JUST GO WITH THE LOW END CHANCE WORDING.
THESE STORMY PERIOD WILL ALSO LIKELY BRING A FEW EPISODES OF
STRONG/SVR STORMS. THE NW FLOW PATTERN WILL CONTAIN INCREASED MID
LEVEL FLOW WHICH WILL INCREASE THE DEEP LAYER SHEAR AND ALLOW FOR
MORE ORGANIZED STORMS. THIS WILL LEAD TO BETTER POTENTIAL FOR
DAMAGING WINDS. ADDITIONALLY...INSTABILITY WILL BE QUITE HIGH AS
HOT/HUMID SFC CONDITIONS WILL COMBINE WITH STEEP LAPSE RATES TO
SUPPORT SVR STORMS AS WELL. /CME/
&&
.AVIATION...PRIMARILY VFR CONDS AND LGT SFC WINDS XPCTD OVER THE
NEXT 24 HOURS. AN AREA OF SHWRS AND TSTMS ACROSS NORTHERN MS SHOULD
BEGIN TO AFFECT AREAS ALONG THE HWY 82 CORRIDOR (PRIMARILY E OF
I-55) LATER THIS AFTN INTO THE EVENING. A SHIFT TO NORTHERLY WINDS
WITH A BRIEF GUST TO 20KTS WILL BE POSSIBLE AS THIS ACTIVITY
NEARS..IN ADDITION TO INTENSE LIGHTNING ACTIVITY. ELSEWHERE ISOLD
SHWRS/TSTMS WILL BE POSSIBLE THROUGH THE REST OF THE DAY. HEAT AND
HUMIDITY REMAIN AN ISSUE AND DENSITY ALTITUDE CHECKS ARE STILL
ADVISED. MVFR VSBY RESTRICTIONS WILL BE PSBL EARLY TOMORROW
MORNING...ESPECIALLY IN AREAS THAT SEE RAINFALL TODAY. /BK/
