The radar
The Nashville radar (KOHX), 53 km from the middle of the area, began a volume at 03:23 UTC, the scan nearest the moment this went out.
Open the radar archive at this moment
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
Nashville Metro, TN (KBNA), launched 00:00Z, 3.4 hours before the alert went out and 65 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.

AMLWhat 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 Louisville, KY wrote its last area forecast discussion before this severe thunderstorm warning went out at Jun 11, 7:53 PM CDT, 2 hours 28 minutes earlier.
Area forecast discussion, Jun 11, 7:53 PM CDT, 2 hours 28 minutes before
AREA FORECAST DISCUSSION NATIONAL WEATHER SERVICE LOUISVILLE KY 853 PM EDT SAT JUN 11 2011 ...UPDATED AVIATION DISCUSSION... ...FORECAST UPDATE... UPDATED FORECAST TO ACCOUNT FOR ISOLATED TO SCATTERED THUNDERSTORMS STILL PERSISTING ACROSS WEST CENTRAL KY. THESE STORMS HAVE DEVELOPED AS OUTFLOW BOUNDARIES FROM PREVIOUS STORMS INTERACT WITH AN UNFORCED BUT WEAKLY UNSTABLE ENVIRONMENT. ONE CLUSTER OF STORMS ACROSS SOUTHERN INDIANA HAS FORMED ALONG A WEAK COLD FRONT. THIS BOUNDARY WILL MOVE SOUTHEAST OF THE OHIO RIVER DURING THE PRE-DAWN HOURS. EXPECT THAT STORMS ACROSS WEST CENTRAL KENTUCKY WILL DIMINISH BY LATE EVENING...WITH A SOMEWHAT BETTER CHANCE OF STORMS ACROSS SOUTHERN INDIANA SURVIVING AND APPROACHING THE OHIO RIVER BY PRIOR TO MIDNIGHT. PRECIPITATION COVERAGE WILL STAY BELOW 30%. HOWEVER...A FEW SELECT ISOLATED LOCATIONS UNDER THE HEAVIEST STORMS WILL EXPERIENCE BRIEF...VERY HEAVY RAIN. .SHORT TERM (TONIGHT AND SUNDAY)... CONVECTION HAS FIRED ALONG REMNANT OUTFLOW BOUNDARY ACROSS SOUTH CENTRAL KENTUCKY. EXPECT THUNDERSTORMS TO CONTINUE TO POP UP THROUGH THE AFTERNOON AND EVENING HOURS AS THE ATMOSPHERE CONTINUES TO DESTABILIZE AND FRONTAL BOUNDARY APPROACHES FROM THE NORTHWEST. MOST LIKELY AREAS FOR CONVECTION WILL BE IN THE SOUTHERN PORTION OF THE CWA AS THE NORTH IS STILL RECOVERING FROM COLD POOL OF DYING MCS. DUE TO THE MORE STABLE ENVIRONMENT...IT IS MUCH LESS CERTAIN WHETHER ANY MORE CONVECTION WILL FIRE NORTH OF I 64 BEFORE FRONT MOVES THROUGH LATE THIS EVENING. THERE IS A SMALL THREAT OF SEVERE STORMS IN OUR SOUTHERN CWA THROUGH THIS AFTERNOON AND EVENING WITH MODERATE TO STRONG INSTABILITY DEVELOPING WHERE IT HAS BEEN MOSTLY CLEAR. MAIN STORM MODE SHOULD BE PULSING IN NATURE...HOWEVER FORECAST SOUNDINGS INDICATE ENOUGH DRY AIR AT THE MID LEVELS TO SUGGEST THAT DAMAGING WINDS WITH COLLAPSING STORMS WILL BE POSSIBLE. THERE WILL ALSO BE AN OUTSIDE SHOT AT SEVERE HAIL...HOWEVER THIS WOULD REMAIN LOCALIZED TO ONLY THE MOST VIGOROUS OF UPDRAFTS. SPC DID ISSUE A MESOSCALE DISCUSSION CONCERNING CONVECTION OVER THE LAKE CUMBERLAND REGION HOWEVER FEEL THE SEVERE THREAT IS TOO ISOLATED TO WARRANT A WATCH ATTM. LATER ARRIVAL OF THE COLD FRONT APPEARS TO BRING IT THROUGH BETWEEN 10 PM EDT AND 4 AM EDT. BEHIND THIS FRONT...EXPECT A COOLER/DRIER AIRMASS TO TAKE HOLD. HAVE KEPT LINGERING LOW CHANCE POPS IN THE EAST TOWARD DAWN TO ACCOUNT FOR SLOWER PROGRESSION OF BOUNDARY... WITH TOMORROW DRY. THIS WILL OCCUR AS SURFACE HIGH PRESSURE COMBINES WITH WEAK RIDGING ALOFT. AS FOR LOW TEMPERATURES TONIGHT...HAVE INCREASED SLIGHTLY TO ACCOUNT FOR SLOWER FRONTAL PASSAGE. EXPECT LOWER 60S IN SOUTHERN INDIANA... TO THE MID 60S ACROSS CENTRAL KENTUCKY. HIGHS ON SUNDAY WILL BE COOLER WITH THE MERCURY TOPPING OUT AROUND 80 IN SOUTHERN INDIANA AND IN THE MID 80S ACROSS CENTRAL KENTUCKY. .LONG TERM (SUNDAY NIGHT - SATURDAY)... WITH AN INFLUX OF DRIER AIR...SUNDAY NIGHT AND MONDAY SHUD BE DRY WITH AN UPPER LEVEL RIDGE ACRS THE MS VLY AND SURFACE RIDGE ACRS OUR REGION. BY MONDAY NIGHT...A WARM FRONT WILL BEGIN ADVANCING FROM ERN AR TO THE MO BOOTHEEL/WRN TN BY TUE EVE...WHILE UPR LEVEL IMPULSES SLIDE SEWD IN NW FLO. NEED TO INCREASE/ADD POPS MON NIGHT AND TUE WITH TIME/HEIGHT CROSS-SECTIONS SHOWING SUFFICIENT DEEP LAYER MOISTURE AND LIFT FOR SHOWERS. SHOWERS/TSTMS SHUD BECOME MORE WIDESPREAD...BUT STILL SCATTERED TUE NIGHT THRU THU WITH SIGNIFICANT MID LEVEL HEIGHT FALLS AS LONGWAVE TROF...ACCOMPANIED BY NUMEROUS EMBEDDED IMPULSES...DIGS INTO THE OHIO VALLEY. ASSOCIATED DEEPENING SURFACE LOW AND WARM FRONT TRAVERSES OUR REGION WED WITH TRAILING COLD FRONT MOVING THRU WED NIGHT/EARLY THU. AFTERWARD...WILL MAINTAIN A DRY FORECAST FOR MOST OF OUR FORECAST AREA FROM THU NIGHT INTO FRI NIGHT WITH ANOTHER SHOWER CHC BY SAT AS AFOREMENTIONED COLD FRONT STALLS IN TN FRI AND LIFTS NWD INTO KY SAT. MAX TEMPS WILL HOLD IN THE 80S THRU THE WORKWEEK AND REACH NEAR 90 BY SAT...MUCH CLOSER TO EARLY JUN NORMS...ESPECIALLY EARLY IN THE WEEK. && .AVIATION (00Z TAF ISSUANCE)... WEAK HIGH PRESSURE CENTERED OVER THE COMMONWEALTH WILL CONTINUE OUR RECENT TREND OF VERY LIGHT WINDS. VARIABLE WINDS AROUND 5 MPH THIS EVENING WILL TREND TO CALM CONDITIONS AFTER MIDNIGHT. A WEAK COLD FRONT WILL SAG SOUTH OF THE OHIO RIVER DURING THE PRE-DAWN HOURS SUNDAY. AS HIGH PRESSURE BUILDS OVER THE GREAT LAKES...NORTH WINDS WILL INCREASE TO AROUND 10KT BY 17Z SUNDAY. SCATTERED THUNDERSTORMS ACROSS SOUTHERN INDIANA AND WESTERN KENTUCKY WILL DIMINISH AS THEY APPROACH OUR TAF SITES TOWARDS OR SHORTLY AFTER MIDNIGHT. WITH THE UNORGANIZED NATURE OF ANY THUNDERSTORMS OVERNIGHT...WILL NOT SPECIFICALLY PLACE ANY IN THE TAFS. HOWEVER...WILL DENOTE INCREASED CLOUDINESS AND AT LEAST THE POTENTIAL FOR CONVECTION IN THE AREA BY PLACING CB IN THE TAFS. EXPECT VFR FLYING CONDITIONS OVERNIGHT AND SUNDAY OUTSIDE ANY ISOLATED THUNDERSTORM. CONVECTIVE CLUSTER HAS CONTINUED TO DIE OFF ACROSS SOUTHERN INDIANA EARLY THIS AFTERNOON. STILL COULD GET SOME LIGHT RAIN AT SDF BETWEEN 2 AND 4 PM EDT...HOWEVER DO NOT EXPECT VIS/CIG TO GO BELOW VFR THRESHOLD. OTHERWISE...FRONTAL BOUNDARY WILL APPROACH FROM THE NORTHWEST LATER THIS EVENING WITH THE POTENTIAL FOR SCATTERED SHOWERS AND THUNDERSTORMS UNTIL THEN. THE BEST CHANCE FOR THUNDERSTORM RE-DEVELOPMENT THIS AFTERNOON WILL BE NEAR BWG WHERE REMNANT T-STORM OUTFLOW BOUNDARY COMBINES WITH MOST UNSTABLE AIRMASS. AM NOT CONFIDENT ENOUGH TO INCLUDE A PREVAILING THUNDERSTORM GROUP AT THIS TIME...HOWEVER DO HAVE CB GROUP MENTIONED. CHANCES FOR THUNDERSTORMS WILL DIE OFF THIS EVENING WHEN FRONT PASSES BETWEEN MIDNIGHT AND 4 AM EDT FROM WEST TO EAST. WINDS SHOULD VEER WITH FRONTAL PASSAGE TO THE NORTHWEST WITH COOLER/DRIER AIRMASS SETTLING IN. WILL LIKELY HAVE TO DEAL WITH VFR/MVFR STRATOCU BEHIND THE FRONT TOWARD DAWN...WHICH IS EVIDENT ON VISIBLE SATELLITE IMAGERY. && .LMK WATCHES/WARNINGS/ADVISORIES... KY...NONE.
