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.

Area forecast discussion, May 22, 6:00 PM EDT, 1 hour 8 minutes before

AREA FORECAST DISCUSSION
NATIONAL WEATHER SERVICE CHARLESTON WV
600 PM EDT SUN MAY 22 2011

.SYNOPSIS...
WARM SOUTHERLY WINDS BRING A SUMMER LIKE AIRMASS...WITH CHANCES OF
SHOWERS AND THUNDERSTORMS THROUGH MONDAY. SOME STORMS MAY BE SEVERE
THIS EVENING. A COLD FRONT THEN SETS UP JUST TO OUR NORTH AND WEST.

&&

.NEAR TERM /THROUGH MONDAY/...
UPDATED FOR SEVERE THUNDERSTORM WATCH TIL 11 PM THIS EVENING. LOOKS
LIKE BEST PART OF DEVELOPING COMPLEX OVER EASTERN KENTUCKY LATE THIS
AFTERNOON WILL SHIFT EASTWARD ACROSS SOUTHERN HALF OF THE AREA.
INCREASED POPS TO CAT SOUTH...AND HIGH CHANCE NORTH THRU 03Z...THEN
DECREASE POPS TO GENERALLY SLIGHT CHANCE WITH EXITING COMPLEX AND
LOSS OF HEATING.

PREVIOUS DISCUSSION...
MODELS ARE STRUGGLING WITH SMALL SCALE FEATURES IN THIS AIRMASS.
FEEL THAT MODELS HAVE A GOOD HANDLE ON FEATURES CURRENTLY BEARING
DOWN ON THE REGION...BUT CONFIDENCE WANES CONSIDERABLY WITH TIME AS
DIFFERENCES MULTIPLY. THEREFORE...WILL TRY TO BE SPECIFIC
INITIALLY...BUT MORE GENERIC WITH TIME. FOR LOWS TONIGHT...WILL GO
ON THE WARMER SIDE OF GUIDANCE IN THE WESTERN COUNTIES WHERE WINDS
WILL PERSIST. ON MONDAY...NAM MOS HIGHS LOOK TOO COOL...BUT MAV MOS
LOOKS TO WARM. WILL RUN A COMPROMISE.

&&

.SHORT TERM /MONDAY NIGHT THROUGH WEDNESDAY/...
A COLD FRONT WILL APPROACH AND LAY OUT ACROSS THE OH VALLEY DURING
THE SHORT TERM...INCLUDING SE OH. THIS SHOULD CREATE A GREATER
COVERAGE OF CONVECTION ACROSS SE OH...INTO NORTHERN WV...AIDED BY
OCCASIONAL IMPULSES TRAVELING ALONG THE BOUNDARY. MODELS ARE IN GOOD
AGREEMENT WITH ONE SUCH WAVE ON TUESDAY AFTERNOON AND
EVENING...AFFECTING MAINLY SE OH AND NORTHERN WV. SPC CONTINUES TO
HIGHLIGHT A BROAD AREA OF SLIGHT RISK ACROSS MS AND OH VALLEYS
TUESDAY...INCLUDING AREAS ALONG AND WEST OF OH RVR IN THE CWA.
GREATEST THREAT FOR SVR SHOULD LIE ACROSS SE OH MONDAY...EXPANDING
INTO WESTERN WV TUESDAY AS FRONT CLOSES IN. BOUNDARY WILL BEGIN TO
RETREAT NORTH INTO GREAT LAKES AREA ON WEDNESDAY IN RESPONSE TO
AMPLIFYING TROF ACROSS THE PLAINS.

CONTINUE TREND OF BLENDING IN MET GUIDANCE AS MAV LOOKS TOO WARM
GIVEN EVAPOTRANSPIRATION EFFECTS. LOW TO MID 80S LOOK GOOD OUTSIDE
OF CONVECTION WITH GENERALLY LOW 60S FOR LOWS.

&&

.LONG TERM /WEDNESDAY NIGHT THROUGH SUNDAY/...
UPR RIDGE BUILDING ALONG EAST COAST LATE THIS WEEK...WILL HELP TO
STIFF ARM EFFECTS OF LOW PRESSURE MOVING INTO WESTERN OH VALLEY. AS
SUCH...MUCH OF THE ACTION SHOULD STAY WEST OF CWA UNTIL PERHAPS LATE
FRIDAY GIVEN CONTINUED TREND OF SLOWING THINGS DOWN. CONSIDERABLE
UNCERTAINTY EXISTS GOING INTO THE WEEKEND REGARDING IF UPR LOW
REMAINS ATTACHED TO WESTERLIES OR GETS LEFT BEHIND OVER OH VALLEY.
MODELS ARE STRUGGLING WITH DETAILS OF PAC ENERGY ALONG WITH STRENGTH
OF RIDGE ALONG EAST COAST. TRIED TO STAY CLOSE TO HPC
SOLUTION...KEEPING HIGH CHC POPS THRU WEEKEND. SHOULD UPR RIDGE HOLD
AND BUILD...THEN HPC SOLUTION MAY BE TOO PESSIMISTIC. TEMPS WILL
REMAIN ON THE WARM SIDE...GENERALLY LOW TO MID 80S.

&&

.AVIATION /22Z SUNDAY THROUGH FRIDAY/...
22Z SUNDAY THRU 18Z MONDAY...
THROUGH 03Z...THUNDERSTORM COMPLEX OVER EASTERN KENTUCKY WILL
GENERALLY SHIFT EASTWARD THIS EVENING...AFFECTING SOUTHERN HALF OF
THE AREA MOST...BUT STILL SCATTERED STORMS NORTH. BASICALLY...VFR
CAN BE EXPECTED OUTSIDE OF THUNDERSTORMS.

AFTER 03Z...ISOLATED STORMS AT BEST THRU 08Z...THEN INCREASING AGAIN
AFTER 08Z AS AN UPPER LEVEL IMPULSE APPROACHES FROM THE WEST. SOME
FOG POSSIBLE AFTER 06Z WHERE RAIN HAS FALLEN THIS EVENING AND IF
CLOUDS BREAK...OTHERWISE ...VFR OUTSIDE OF THUNDERSTORMS.

AFTER 12Z...ANY FOG THAT FORMS LIFTS...BUT SCATTERED REMAIN
POSSIBLE. AGAIN...VFR OUTSIDE OF STORMS.

FORECAST CONFIDENCE AND ALTERNATE SCENARIOS THROUGH 00Z TUESDAY...

FORECAST CONFIDENCE: MEDIUM TO LOW. NEW STORM GENERATION BEHIND THE
MAIN COMPLEX THIS EVENING MAY BE MORE LIMITED THAN FORECAST. FOG
POTENTIAL LATER TONIGHT HIGHLY DEPENDENT ON WHERE RAIN FALLS THIS
EVENING AND IF SKIES CLEAR SOMEWHAT.

ALTERNATE SCENARIOS: TIMING OF SHOWERS AND THUNDERSTORMS COULD VARY.
