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 13, 3:02 PM CDT, 22 minutes before

AREA FORECAST DISCUSSION
NATIONAL WEATHER SERVICE MEMPHIS TN
302 PM CDT FRI MAY 13 2011

.DISCUSSION...

SKIES ARE PARTLY TO MOSTLY CLOUDY THIS AFTERNOON WITH TEMPERATURES
RANGING FROM THE MID 60S TO LOWER 80S. THUNDERSTORMS...SOME
PRODUCING LARGE HAIL ARE MOVING ACROSS EAST ARKANSAS AND THE
MISSOURI BOOTHEEL AND WILL BE MOVING ACROSS THE MISSISSIPPI RIVER
SHORTLY. A SEVERE THUNDERSTORMS REMAINS IN EFFECT FOR THE ENTIRE
FORECAST AREA UNTIL 7 PM.

UPPER LEVEL LOW WAS OVER SOUTH CENTRAL MISSOURI THIS AFTERNOON AND
WILL MOVE EAST TONIGHT ACROSS THE FORECAST AREA. THE BEST CHANCE
OF THUNDERSTORMS WILL BE AHEAD OF THE LOW BUT SOME SCATTERED
THUNDERSTORMS WILL BE POSSIBLE AFTER THE LOW PASSES THROUGH.
SCATTERED THUNDERSTORMS WILL BE POSSIBLE SATURDAY MORNING
ESPECIALLY OVER EASTERN SECTIONS OF THE FORECAST AREA. BEHIND THE
UPPER LOW AND ASSOCIATED COLD FRONT...COOLER AIR WILL MOVE INTO
THE FORECAST AREA ON SATURDAY AS AFTERNOON TEMPERATURES WILL
STRUGGLE TO REACH 70 DEGREES. SATURDAY NIGHT SHOULD REMAIN DRY AND
COOLER.

BY SUNDAY...AN UPPER LEVEL TROUGH WILL SWING SOUTH THROUGH THE
CENTRAL PLAINS AND EVENTUALLY INTO THE FORECAST AREA SUNDAY NIGHT
AND MONDAY. AS A RESULT...SOME ISOLATED SHOWERS ARE POSSIBLE OVER
NORTHERN SECTIONS OF THE FORECAST AREA DURING THE DAY SUNDAY.
SCATTERED SHOWERS WILL BE POSSIBLE SUNDAY NIGHT AND MONDAY ACROSS
THE ENTIRE FORECAST AREA AS THE TROUGH MOVES THE REGION.

HIGH PRESSURE WILL BUILD INTO THE REGION STARTING MONDAY NIGHT
BRINGING A PERIOD OF DRY WEATHER AND PLEASANT BELOW NORMAL
TEMPERATURES FROM MONDAY NIGHT THROUGH THURSDAY.

ANOTHER UPPER LEVEL LOW WILL MOVE INTO THE SOUTHERN PLAINS
THURSDAY NIGHT AND FRIDAY. THIS LOW WILL SPREAD SCATTERED SHOWERS
AND THUNDERSTORMS ACROSS THE FORECAST AREA.

HYDROLOGY...

THE MAIN STEM MISSISSIPPI RIVER WILL REMAIN ABOVE MAJOR FLOOD
STAGE LEVELS THROUGH THE WEEKEND AND INTO EARLY NEXT WEEK. AREAS
THAT HAVE BEEN FLOODED DUE TO THE NEAR RECORD MISSISSIPPI RIVER
FLOODING WILL LIKELY CONTINUE TO EXPERIENCE FLOODED CONDITIONS FOR
THE NEXT SEVERAL DAYS...POSSIBLY FOR THE NEXT COUPLE OF WEEKS FOR
SOME LOCATIONS. SMALLER TRIBUTARIES OFF OF THE MAIN STEM
MISSISSIPPI RIVER MAY SEE RISES IF HEAVIER RAINFALL DOES FALL OVER
THE BASINS TODAY...AS RUNOFF WILL NOT BE ABLE TO ESCAPE THE
SMALLER RIVERS DUE TO CONTINUED BACK WATER FLOOD ISSUES ASSOCIATED
WITH THE MISSISSIPPI RIVER.

ARS

&&

MOVE THROUGH AFTER THE STORMS...CAUSING WINDS TO VEER FROM
SOUTHWEST TO WEST NORTHWEST. WINDS WILL BEGIN TO WEAKEN LATER
THIS EVENING. CEILINGS WILL REMAIN MVFR AFTER STORMS AND COLD
FRONT...HOWEVER LOW CLOUDS AND FOG ARE EXPECTED TO MOVE IN AFTER
MIDNIGHT TONIGHT AND LAST THROUGH MOST OF THE EARLY MORNING HOURS.
