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.

NWS North Platte, NE wrote its last area forecast discussion before this severe thunderstorm warning went out at Jul 4, 2:39 PM MDT, 6 hours 8 minutes earlier.
Area forecast discussion, Jul 4, 2:39 PM MDT, 6 hours 8 minutes before
AREA FORECAST DISCUSSION NATIONAL WEATHER SERVICE NORTH PLATTE NE 339 PM CDT MON JUL 4 2011 .SYNOPSIS... H5 ANALYSIS FROM THIS MORNING...INDICATING A LARGE AREA OF HIGH PRESSURE ACROSS THE CENTRAL ROCKIES WITH A TROUGH EXTENDING FROM THE SRN GREAT LAKES SSWD INTO THE OZARKS. WV IMAGERY INDICATING NUMEROUS EMBEDDED WAVES ACROSS THE ROCKIES EXTENDING FROM AZ TO WY. AT THE SURFACE...A TROUGH OF LOW PRESSURE EXTENDED FROM WEST OF SIDNEY TO EASTERN ND. EAST OF THIS FEATURE...WINDS WERE SERLY WITH DEW POINTS IN THE UPPER 60S/LWR 70S. AFTERNOON READINGS WERE IN THE 80S EAST OF THE TROUGH...WITH SOME 90S NOTED WEST OF THIS FEATURE. .DISCUSSION... NEAR TERM...TONIGHT THROUGH THURSDAY NIGHT...MAIN FORECASTING CHALLENGE IS TSRA CHANCES/FRONTAL TIMING OVER THE NEXT 36 HOURS. FOR TONIGHT...ONGOING FORECAST GENERALLY ON TRACK WITH THE BEST PRECIPITATION CHANCES ALONG THE FRONTAL BOUNDARY IN THE NORTHERN CWA. AS OF 230 PM CDT...SOME TSRA INITIATION IS TAKING PLACE OVER THE HIGHER TERRAIN OF EASTERN WYOMING NORTH AND WEST OF CHEYENNE. STEERING WINDS ARE FAIRLY SLOW THIS AFTERNOON...SO CONVECTION OVR ERN WYOMING STILL A LONG WAY FROM MOVG INTO THE LBF CWA. BASED ON THE LOCATION AND FORWARD SPEED OF THE EASTERNMOST CELLS...ACTIVITY SHOULD STAY OUT OF THE FORECAST AREA UNTIL 00Z. THOUGH NOT HIGHLY PROBABLE AT THIS JUNCTURE...ANY STORMS WHICH DE DEVELOP IN THE CWA ARE EXPECTED TO GO UP ACROSS THE CENTRAL PANHANDLE...WHERE LOW LEVEL SURFACE CONVERGENCE IS PRESENT ...BULK SHEAR IS 30 TO 40 KTS SO SOME SUPERCELLS ARE POSSIBLE...PARTICULARLY OVER THE NORTH CENTRAL CWA THIS EVENING. LARGE HAIL...DAMAGING WINDS...AND GIVEN THE SLOW MOVEMENT OF THUNDERSTORMS...HEAVY RAIN MAY BE A FACTOR THIS EVENING AS WELL. MAIN AREA OF CONCERN ATTM IS NORTH OF HIGHWAY 2 FROM ANTIOCH TO DUNNING...AND NORTH OF HIGHWAY 97 FROM DUNNING TO ERICSON. SOUTH OF THIS LINE...CAP STRENGTH INCREASES...SHEAR WEAKENS...AND AVAILABLE CAPE DECREASES QUICKLY...SO SEVERE THREAT IS MUCH LOWER. HOWEVER...STILL CANT IGNORE THE LOW LEVEL JET LATER TONIGHT WHICH EXTENDS ACROSS THE WESTERN CWA OVERNIGHT. WITH THIS IN MIND...WILL RETAIN LOW ISOLATED THUNDERSTORM CHANCES. FOR TUESDAY AND TUESDAY NIGHT...A FRONTAL BOUNDARY WILL SLIDE THROUGH THE FORECAST AREA...SHIFTING THE FOCUS FOR TSRA DEVELOPMENT AND THE THREAT FOR SEVERE STORMS SOUTH AND EAST. ATTM IT IS HARD TO DETERMINE WHERE AND HOW FAR SOUTH THE BOUNDARY WILL BE TOMORROW AFTERNOON BASED ON CONVECTION TONIGHT. BOTH THE GFS AND NAM SOLN HAVE THIS FRONT ALONG THE KANSAS/NEBR BORDER BY 00Z WEDS...WHICH WOULD BE FAVORABLE FOR TSRA DEVELOPMENT IN OUR SRN CWA. MOISTURE...INSTABILITY AND SHEAR WILL BE PREVALENT ACROSS MOST OF THE FORECAST AREA WITH THE SEVERE THREAT CARRYING OVER TO TUESDAY EVENING. WEDNESDAY AND THURSDAY...THE FRONTAL BOUNDARY WILL PUSH SOUTH AND WEST OF THE AREA...GIVING US SOME QUIET CONDITIONS FOR WEDNESDAY AND WEDNESDAY NIGHT. THE FRONT LIFTS EAST FOR THURSDAY...INCREASING PRECIPITATION CHANCES ACROSS WESTERN NEBRASKA THURSDAY NIGHT. LONG TERM...FRIDAY THROUGH MONDAY...NORTHERN STREAM WILL REMAIN ACTIVE ACROSS THE NRN CONUS/SRN CANADA DURING THE PERIOD WITH HIGH PRESSURE ANCHORED OVER THE SRN PLAINS. AN UPPER LEVEL TROUGH WILL TRACK ALONG THE US/CANADIAN BORDER SATURDAY...FORCING A FRONTAL BOUNDARY INTO NRN NEBRASKA. DECIDED TO INCREASE POP CHANCES FOR SUNDAY THROUGH MONDAY...MAINLY OVER NORTHERN NEBRASKA...AS THIS FEATURE IS PROGGED TO MEANDER ACROSS THE CENTRAL PLAINS BEFORE LIFTING NORTH ON MONDAY. AS FOR TEMPERATURES...TRENDED THEM TOWARD THE MEDIAN MEN GUIDANCE AS THE OPERATIONAL MEX GUIDANCE WAS ON THE HIGH SIDE OF TEMPERATURES. THIS EQUATED TO UPPER 80S/AROUND 90 VERSUS THE MID 90S ADVERTISED BY THE OPERATIONAL MEX NUMBERS. && AVIATION... VFR CONDITIONS TO PREVAIL EARLY IN THE TAF FORECAST PERIOD...FOLLOWED BY THE POTENTIAL FOR THUNDERSTORMS...THEN POSSIBLY MVFR OR LOWER CEILINGS. AS FOR THUNDER CHANCES...MODELS HAVE SLOWED THE ONSET OF PRECIPITATION UNTIL LATER THIS EVENING WHEN FORCING INCREASES WITH THE ARRIVAL OF BOTH A COLD FRONT AND THE INFLUENCE OF A MID LEVEL PASSING WAVE. THE MODEL SOLUTIONS ALSO AGREE THAT THE MAJORITY OF THE STORMS WILL REMAIN NORTH OF THE FORECAST AREA. HOWEVER GIVEN THE PROXIMITY OF THE UPPER LEVEL WAVE/COLD FRONT COMBO AND MODERATE TO STRONG INSTABILITY WITHIN THE ATMOSPHERE TO THAT OF THE VTN TERMINAL...FELT THAT A PROB30 GROUP WAS NEEDED FOR THE POTENTIAL OF STORMS. FURTHER SOUTH AT THE LBF TERMINAL...THE ATMOSPHERE LOOKS TO REMAIN STRONGLY CAPPED GREATLY LIMITING STORM CHANCES. OTHERWISE STORMS SHOULD DEVELOP INTO A COMPLEX ACROSS SOUTH DAKOTA...ALLOWING FOR THE POTENTIAL OF SHOWERS AND/OR STRATUS AT VTN. ONLY INCLUDED SCT020 AT 12Z FOR THE TERMINAL AS CONFIDENCE IS LOW...BUT FURTHER UPDATES MAY NEED TO CHANGE TO BKN OR OVC AND THUS INTRODUCE MVFR. FOR LBF...THERE ARE SUBTLE HINTS THAT LOW STRATUS OR EVEN FOG MAY RETURN TOMORROW MORNING. SOUTHEASTERLY FLOW AND A MOIST BL WILL BE IN PLACE...SO FOG IS POSSIBLE. HOWEVER...THE FRONTAL TIMING...INFLUENCE FROM NORTHERN CONVECTION...AND SLIGHTLY STRONGER SURFACE WINDS COULD HAMPER FOG/STRATUS DEVELOPMENT. WITH LOWER CONFIDENCE...WILL SUGGEST SCT020 AT THE LBF TERMINAL FOR NOW...BUT THIS MAY NEED TO BE ADJUSTED FURTHER. && HYDROLOGY... THE NORTH PLATTE AND PLATTE RIVER BASINS CONTINUE TO SHOW A SLOW DOWNWARD TREND AS IRRIGATION DEMANDS INCREASE AND SNOW MELT SLOWS OVER THE SOURCE REGION OF THE NORTH PLATTE RIVER. IN RESPONSE...KINGSLEY DAM HAS DECREASED FLOWS OUT OF LAKE MCCONAUGHY SLIGHTLY. THE NORTH PLATTE RIVER AT LISCO HAS ALREADY LOWERED BELOW FLOOD STAGE...WITH THE PLATTE CHANNEL AT BRADY EXPECTED TO LOWER BELOW FLOOD STAGE EARLY THIS WEEK. && .LBF WATCHES/WARNINGS/ADVISORIES...NONE AVIATION AND HYDROLOGY...JACOBS SYNOPSIS...NEAR AND LONG TERM...BUTTLER
