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
Greensboro/Hi Pt, NC (KGSO), launched 00:00Z, 0.1 hours before the alert went out and 100 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.

WSSWhat 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 Raleigh, NC wrote its last area forecast discussion before this severe thunderstorm warning went out at Sep 2, 3:25 PM EDT, 4 hours 43 minutes earlier.
Area forecast discussion, Sep 2, 3:25 PM EDT, 4 hours 43 minutes before
AREA FORECAST DISCUSSION NATIONAL WEATHER SERVICE RALEIGH NC 325 PM EDT FRI SEP 2 2011 .SYNOPSIS... HIGH PRESSURE WILL MOVE OFFSHORE AND EXTEND INTO THE REGION THROUGH THE WEEKEND. A COLD FRONT WILL APPROACH FROM THE NORTHWEST ON LABOR DAY AND STALL ACROSS THE REGION THROUGH MIDWEEK. && .SHORT TERM /TONIGHT THROUGH SATURDAY NIGHT/... AS OF 230 PM FRIDAY... OVERVIEW: UPPER LEVEL RIDGE OVER THE OH/TN VALLEY WILL BUILD EASTWARD OVER THE CENTRAL AND SOUTHERN APPALACHIANS TONIGHT AND SATURDAY...BEFORE BREAKING DOWN ON SATURDAY NIGHT AS IT GETS SQUEEZED BY THE APPROACHING NORTHERN STREAM TROF AND EXTRA-TROPICAL REMNANTS OF TROPICAL STORM LEE FROM THE SOUTHWEST. MEANWHILE...SURFACE HIGH PRESSURE WILL GRADUALLY SHIFT OFFSHORE THROUGH THE WEEKEND. THIS EVENING/TONIGHT: MODELS SUGGEST ADDITIONAL WEAK/SHEARED SHORTWAVE ENERGY WILL DIVE SOUTH ALONG THE EASTERN PERIPHERY OF THE UPPER LEVEL RIDGE LATE THIS AFTERNOON AND EVENING. HOWEVER...REVIEW OF LATEST SATELLITE IMAGERY DOES NOT READILY REVEAL/HINT AT ANY SUCH DISCERNIBLE FEATURE. INSTEAD...IT APPEARS THAT MUCH OF THE FORECAST AREA WILL SEE MESOSCALE SUBSIDENCE ACROSS THE AREA THIS AFTERNOON...AS THIS MORNINGS VORT DISTURBANCE PASSES TO THE SOUTH. THE EXCEPTION MAY BE ACROSS THE FAR WESTERN ZONES...WHERE UNENCUMBERED INSOLATION AND DEVELOPING LOW-LEVEL RETURN LOW/RISING SFC DEWPOINTS HAS YIELDED MODERATE TO STRONG DESTABILIZATION AND AN EXPANDING AGITATED CU FIELD OVER THE VA/NC MTNS/FHTLS. COULD SEE AN ISOLATED SEVERE STORM OR TWO...OTHERWISE STORMS QUICKLY DISSIPATE WITH LOSS OF HEATING. SKIES SHOULD BECOME MOSTLY CLEAR THIS EVENING WITH LIGHT TO CALM WINDS AS SURFACE RIDGE AXIS IS SLOW TO SHIFT EAST OF THE AREA. MODEL SOUNDINGS INDICATE GOOD VEERING IN THE LOWEST 1.5KM...WHICH WILL LIKELY LEAD TO AREAS OF FOG/STRATUS DEVELOPMENT OVERNIGHT. OVERNIGHT LOWS RANGING FROM LOWER 60S NORTHEAST TO UPPER WESTERN AREAS. SATURDAY AND SATURDAY NIGHT: WITH UPPER RIDGE AXIS CENTERED OVER THE REGION...CENTRAL NC LOOKS TO BE VOID OF ANY PASSING UPPER DISTURBANCE. STRONG DAYTIME HEATING AND INCREASINGLY SELY RETURN FLOW AROUND THE WESTERN PERIPHERY OFF THE OFFSHORE SURFACE HIGH WILL SUPPORT UPSLOPE/DIFFERENTIAL HEATING CONVECTION ACROSS THE MTNS AND FOOTHILLS. WILL HAVE A SLIGHT CHANCE ACROSS THE WESTERN PIEDMONT...OTHERWISE DRY WITH AREAS OF FOG POSSIBLE AGAIN SATURDAY NIGHT IN THE WARM/MOIST SOUTHERLY FLOW. LOWS LEVEL-THICKNESSES SATURDAY ARE FORECAST TO BE IN THE SAME BALLPARK AS TO TODAY...BUT WITHOUT MODULATED HEATING FROM MORNING CONVECTIVE. THUS AREAS EAST OF THE WESTERN PIEDMONT SHOULD BE WARMER. HIGHS IN THE UPPER 80S TO LOWER 90S. LOWS 65 TO 70. && .SHORT TERM /SUNDAY AND SUNDAY NIGHT/... AS OF 245 PM FRIDAY... THE INFLUENCE FROM THE MID/UPPER RIDGING WILL BE ON THE WANE BY SUNDAY AS TWO UPPER LEVEL LOWS/TROUGHS (ONE OVER THE WESTERN ATLANTIC AND ANOTHER ONE APPROACHING THE REGION FROM FROM THE TN VALLEY) DEVELOP/STRENGTHEN. HOWEVER...SUNDAY IS EXPECTED TO REMAIN MOSTLY DRY AS THE PRIMARY INFLUENCE WILL COME FROM THE UPPER LOW IN THE WESTERN ATLANTIC...AS THE LOW OVER THE TN VALLEY WILL BE FAR ENOUGH AWAY FROM THE REGION TO BE MUCH OF AN IMPACT. THEREFORE... SUBSIDENCE WILL INCREASE OVER THE AREA AND KEEP A CAP ON MOST CONVECTION. NEVERTHELESS...WITH MOISTURE INCREASING DURING THIS TIME FRAME DUE TO DEEP SOUTHWESTERLY FLOW AHEAD OF THE TN VALLEY SYSTEM...CANNOT COMPLETELY RULE OUT A SHOWER AND/OR THUNDERSTORM... BUT ANY CONVECTION OVER THE FORECAST AREA SHOULD BE ISOLATED AT BEST. HIGHS ARE EXPECTED TO BE IN THE UPPER 80S TO NEAR 90 DEGREES ON SUNDAY...WITH OVERNIGHT LOWS NEAR 70 DEGREES AS CLOUDS WILL BE ON THE INCREASE SUNDAY NIGHT. && .LONG TERM /MONDAY THROUGH FRIDAY/... AS OF 220 PM FRIDAY... THE LONG TERM FORECAST CONTINUES TO BE A LOW CONFIDENCE ONE...AS MODELS CONTINUE TO HAVE ISSUES WITH THE DEVELOPMENT OF A COMPLICATED UPPER LOW/TROUGH OVER THE TN VALLEY...WHICH WILL INCLUDE THE REMNANTS OF TROPICAL STORM LEE. OVERALL...ABOVE AVERAGE PRECIP IS STILL EXPECTED THROUGH THIS PERIOD WITH THE APPROACH OF THE UPPER LEVEL LOW AND ASSOCIATED SURFACE FRONT. HOWEVER...THE 12Z GFS CAME IN AND NOW STALLS THE ASSOCIATED SURFACE FRONT WELL NORTHWEST OF THE REGION AS THE UPPER LOW CUTS OFF OVER THE TN VALLEY. PREVIOUS RUNS HAD SHOWN THE SURFACE FRONT STALLING NEAR CENTRAL NORTH CAROLINA MONDAY INTO TUESDAY WHICH WOULD RESULT IN HIGH RAIN CHANCES AS MOIST SOUTHWESTERLY FLOW MOVES OVER THE STALLED BOUNDARY THROUGH AT LEAST THE MIDDLE OF THE WEEK. THIS WOULD ALSO RESULT IN WELL BELOW NORMAL TEMPS. HOWEVER...IF THE CURRENT RUN VERIFIES...THEN THE REGION WILL REMAIN IN THE WARM SECTOR AND WE WILL STILL SEE RAIN...BUT THE AMOUNTS WILL BE IN QUESTION AS THERE WILL NOT BE A BOUNDARY TO FOCUS THE PRECIP. NEVERTHELESS...WHICH EVER MODEL VERIFIES...MOISTURE WILL BE INCREASING SUBSTANTIALLY ACROSS THE FORECAST AREA (PWAT VALUES PROGGED TO EXCEED 2 INCHES) AND WE ARE EXPECTING A RATHER WET PERIOD AND DUE TO THE HIGH UNCERTAINTY...DID NOT MAKE ANY MAJOR CHANGES TO THE ONGOING FORECAST. && .AVIATION /18Z FRIDAY THROUGH WEDNESDAY/... AS OF 200 PM FRIDAY... THERE IS A SLIGHT CHANCE FOR SOME SHOWERS TO DEVELOP ACROSS THE WEST THIS AFTERNOON...HOWEVER HAVE LEFT OUT OF TAFS DUE TO LOW CONFIDENCE AND THAT THEY WOULD LIKELY BE ISOLATED IN NATURE. OTHERWISE..EXPECT VFR CONDITIONS TO PREVAIL THROUGH THIS EVENING...WITH AREAS OF FOG/STRATUS POSSIBLE TONIGHT GIVEN WARM MOIST AIR ADVECTION IN THE LOW LEVELS...WITH GREATEST CONFIDENCE ACROSS THE WEST (KINT AND KGSO). -KMC LOOKING AHEAD...EXPECT PREDOMINATELY VFR CONDITIONS THROUGH THE WEEKEND...WITH THE EXCEPTION OF SOME BRIEF SUB-VFR AVIATION CONDITIONS WITH EARLY MORNING FOG/STRATUS AND ISOLATED TO WIDELY SCATTERED AFTERNOON CONVECTION. WIDESPREAD RAIN CHANCES WITH PROLONGED PERIOD OF ADVERSE AVIATION CONDITIONS ARE EXPECTED BY MONDAY...CONTINUING THROUGH MIDWEEK AS A FRONT STALLS ACROSS THE AREA. -CBL && .RAH WATCHES/WARNINGS/ADVISORIES...
