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.

Area forecast discussion, May 25, 12:51 PM CDT, 5 hours 11 minutes before

AREA FORECAST DISCUSSION...UPDATED AVIATION
NATIONAL WEATHER SERVICE ST LOUIS MO
1251 PM CDT WED MAY 25 2011

.DISCUSSION...
/1144 AM CDT WED MAY 25 2011/
WRITING THE AFD EARLY TODAY...MAY NOT GET ANOTHER CHANCE LATER IN
THE AFTERNOON DUE TO SEVERE WEATHER. LOW OVER EASTERN KANSAS WILL
CONTINUE TO PROGRESS EASTWARD TODAY AND SHOULD BE NEAR THE
MISSISSIPPI RIVER JUST NORTH OF THE ST LOUIS METRO AREA BETWEEN
00Z AND 03Z THIS EVENING. DRY LINE IS MOVING THROUGH WESTERN
MISSOURI NOW...AND HAS ALREADY GONE THROUGH JOPLIN. WITH STORMS
ALREADY FIRING ALONG AND EVEN AHEAD OF THE DRYLINE...SPC HAS
EXPANDED THE HIGH RISK AREA BACK INTO THE ST LOUIS METRO
AREA...AND IT NOW ENCOMPASSES MUCH OF THE SOUTHEASTERN 1/3 OF THE
CWFA. MODERATE RISK NOW STRETCHES FROM COLUMBIA UP TO JUST
SOUTHEAST OF QUINCY WITH SLIGHT BEHIND THAT.  THE OVERALL ENVIRONMENT IS VERY
CONDUCIVE FOR SEVERE WEATHER. SPC OBJECTIVE ANALYSIS IS ALREADY
SHOWING MLCAPE IN EXCESS OF 2000 J/KG AND THE RUC IS FORECASTING
THIS AMOUNT T INCREASE TO OVER 3000 J/KG BY LATER THIS AFTERNOON.
DEEP LAYER 0-6KM BULK SHEAR IS IN EXCESS OF 40KTS AS WELL...SO
SUPERCELLS WITH ROTATING UPDRAFTS ARE LIKELY. ADDITIONALLY...SURFACE
OBS AND RADAR ARE SHOWING AN OUTFLOW BOUNDARY LYING ALMOST
DIRECTLY ON THE I-44 CORRIDOR THROUGH THE METRO AREA...AND
EXTENDING NORTHEAST INTO ILLINOIS NEAR THE I-70 CORRIDOR. THIS
COULD ADD ADDITIONAL LOW LEVEL VORTICITY TO THE ENVIRONMENT AND
ENHANCE THE TORNADO THREAT. LONG TRACK AND VIOLENT TORNADOES...AS
WELL AS LARGE HAIL IN EXCESS OF 2 INCHES AND DAMAGING WINDS OVER
70 MPH ARE LIKELY.

SEVERE WEATHER THREAT SHOULD DIMINISH GREATLY AFTER THE DRYLINE
MOVES THROUGH THIS EVENING. THURSDAY LOOKS LIKE A COOL/RAINY RAW
MAY DAY. LOOKS LIKE A BRIEF BREAK IN THE WEATHER ON THURSDAY NIGHT
AND MOST OF FRIDAY BEFORE ANOTHER SHORTWAVE RIPPLES ACROSS THE
AREA SPREADING SHOWERS AND STORMS ACROSS THE REGION FOR FRIDAY
NIGHT AND EARLY SATURDAY. THE ASSOCIATED COLD FRONT WILL BARELY
CLEAR MISSOURI BEFORE STARTING BACK NORTH AS A WARM FRONT ON
SATURDAY. ADDITIONAL WET WEATHER IS POSSIBLE AS THE FRONT LIFTS
NORTHWARD SATURDAY AFTERNOON AND EVENING. GUIDANCE TEMPS HAVE COME
IN A LITTLE COOLER THAN THE GOING FORECAST...SO WILL GO SLIGHTLY
COOLER THAN THE GOING FORECAST FOR THURSDAY AND FRIDAY. TEMPS TO
WARM BACK UP FOR THE WEEKEND.

THE GOING EXTENDED FORECAST LOOKS GOOD WITH AN UPPER RIDGE
BUILDING OVERHEAD. SHOULD STAY WARM AND MOSTLY DRY AT LEAST
THROUGH MONDAY NIGHT. GFS HAS A WEAK COLD FRONT DRIFTING INTO THE
AREA ON TUESDAY WHICH COULD PROVIDE A FOCUS FOR
THUNDERSTORMS...BUT WILL KEEP THE FORECAST DRY FOR NOW SINCE THE
PREVIOUS RUNS WERE DRY. WOULD LIKE TO SEE A LITTLE MORE
CONSISTENCY BEFORE ADDING POPS.
