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.

24What 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 Charleston, WV wrote its last area forecast discussion before this severe thunderstorm warning went out at May 10, 2:44 PM EDT, 4 hours 30 minutes earlier.
Area forecast discussion, May 10, 2:44 PM EDT, 4 hours 30 minutes before
AREA FORECAST DISCUSSION NATIONAL WEATHER SERVICE CHARLESTON WV 244 PM EDT TUE MAY 10 2011 .SYNOPSIS... EAST OF FRONT DEW POINTS AND INSTABILITY INCREASE THIS AFTERNOON INTO THIS EVENING. THIS COMBINED WITH UPPER LEVEL DYNAMICS KEEP THE THREAT OF STORM TSTMS INTO THE EVENING. WINDS THE PRIMARY ISSUE. POPS LOWER TONIGHT AS SUNS ENERGY REMOVED. SIMILAR PATTERN SETS UP FOR WEDNESDAY AFTERNOON EXCEPT THE PRESENCE OF STRONG DYNAMICS WILL BE LESSENED. AS A RESULT HAVE GONE WITH CHANCE POPS THEN. KEPT CLOSE TO GUIDANCE TEMPS RAISING MINS A BIT TONIGHT WITH HIGH DEW POINTS AND CLOUD REMNANTS. && .NEAR TERM /THROUGH WEDNESDAY/... FOCUS OF NEW MODEL RUNS CONTINUES TO BE OVER THE SW PORTION OF FORECAST AREA. MADE SOME MINOR ADJUSTMENTS TO HOURLY POP FORECAST BUT KEPT THE SAME PATTERN. && .SHORT TERM /WEDNESDAY NIGHT THROUGH THURSDAY NIGHT/... QUASI-STATIONARY COLD FRONT REMAINS TO OUR SOUTHWEST AS WEAK WAVES RIPPLE THROUGH BAROCLINIC ZONE THROUGH THE PERIOD. EXPECT SHOWER DEVELOPMENT TO CONTINUE ALONG THE BOUNDARY...WITH DIURNAL ENHANCEMENT. MODELS EACH HAVE THEIR OWN TAKE ON HOW THEY HANDLE FRONT JUXTAPOSITION OF THE FRONT OVER THE NEXT FEW DAYS. HOWEVER...WHETHER FRONT WAGGLES NORTH OR SOUTH NEAR OUR FORECAST AREA WILL PRIMARILY BE DRIVEN BY MESOSCALE PROCESS WHICH MODELS MAY NOT BE HANDLING ALL THAT WELL. SO..BEST FORECAST APPROACH WAS TO KEEP CHC POPS TRENDING HIGHER DURING THE AFTERNOON HOURS...WITH HIGHER CHANCES IN VICINITY OF THE FRONT. FOR TEMPS...USED RAW CONSENSUS MOS VALUES WITH A FEW TWEAKS... WHICH RESULTED IN LITTLE CHANGE FROM PREVIOUS FCSTED VALUES. MAIN TWEAKS WERE TO KEEP OVERNIGHT MINS ON THE WARM SIDE OF MOS VALUES...DUE TO THE LACK OF RADIATIONAL COOLING...AS RAGGED SKIES DURING THE MORNING HOURS SHOULD HELP KEEP MORNING LOWS FROM DIPPING MUCH. THIS TREND WAS ALSO FEATURED IN THE PREVIOUS FORECAST PACKAGE. && .LONG TERM /FRIDAY THROUGH MONDAY/... OVERALL PATTERN SHOWS LITTLE CHANGE. HOWEVER...MODELS DO PUSH FRONTAL BOUNDARY EAST OF THE AREA BY SATURDAY MORNING AS AN AREA OF LOW PRESSURE WORKS ITS WAY TO THE EAST. THE ECMWF CONTS TO BE THE SLOWER OF THE MODELS IN PUSHING LOW PRESSURE AREA TO THE EAST...AND BASED ON THE STAGNANT NATURE OF THE WX PATTERN...THE MODEL OF CHOICE IS THE ECMWF IN HOW IT HANDLES OVERALL SYNOPTIC PATTERN. USED HPC VALUES WITH MINOR ADJUSTMENTS TO POPULATE GRIDDED FCST. && .AVIATION /19Z TUESDAY THROUGH SUNDAY/... STRONGEST THUNDERSTORMS OVER SW PORTION OF FORECAST AREA INTO THIS EVENING WITH STRONG GUSTS MOST LIKELY THE GREATEST THREAT. CLOUD BASES EXPECTED TO REMAIN ABOVE 3000 FT EXCEPT MVFR IN THE CLOSE VICINITY TO STORMS. CLOUD REMNANTS EXPECTED TONIGHT SO HAVE MINIMIZED FOG THREAT TO MVFR IN RIVER VALLEYS WITH SOME IFR TOWARDS DAWN OVER SOUTHERN PORTION OF FORECAST AREA WHERE MOST PRECIPITATION WILL OCCUR. EVERYTHING IMPROVING TO VFR WEDNESDAY MORNING. FORECAST CONFIDENCE AND ALTERNATE SCENARIOS THROUGH 18Z WEDNESDAY... FORECAST CONFIDENCE: MEDIUM. ALTERNATE SCENARIOS: TIMING AND LOCATION OF SHOWERS AND THUNDERSTORMS COULD VARY...ESPECIALLY OVER SOUTHERN WEST VIRGINIA AND SOUTHWEST VIRGINIA. EXPERIMENTAL TABLE OF FLIGHT CATEGORY OBJECTIVELY SHOWS CONSISTENCY OF WFO FORECAST TO AVAILABLE MODEL INFORMATION: H = HIGH: TAF CONSISTENT WITH ALL MODELS OR ALL BUT ONE MODEL.
