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.

What 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 Birmingham, AL wrote its last area forecast discussion before this severe thunderstorm warning went out at Dec 25, 2:14 PM CST, 3 hours 1 minute earlier.

Area forecast discussion, Dec 25, 2:14 PM CST, 3 hours 1 minute before

AREA FORECAST DISCUSSION
NATIONAL WEATHER SERVICE BIRMINGHAM AL
214 PM CST TUE DEC 25 2012

.SHORT TERM...

PDS TORNADO WATCH NUMBER 692 HAS BEEN ISSUED FOR SEVERAL COUNTIES IN
OUR SOUTHWESTERN CWA...IN EFFECT UNTIL 8 PM. OUR CURRENT THINKING IS
THAT WE'VE GOT AT LEAST A COUPLE HOURS BEFORE THE SEVERE THREAT
STARTS TO RAMP UP IN THE BMX CWA. THE MAIN THING TO WATCH BETWEEN
NOW AND THEN IS THE PROGRESS OF THE SURFACE LOW (NOW IN LA) AND ITS
ASSOCIATED WARM FRONT (NOW STRETCHING WEST TO EAST ACROSS THE
SOUTHERN FIFTH OF AL).

AT 18Z...THE SURFACE LOW WAS A BIT FARTHER EAST THAN BOTH THE (12Z
RUNS OF THE) NAM AND GFS HAD PREDICTED IT TO BE. IN FACT...THE NAM
POSITION AND STRENGTH FORECAST AT 21Z WAS CLOSER TO THE ACTUAL AT
18Z...SO THE NAM IS ALREADY ABOUT 3 HOURS TOO SLOW. THE GFS WAS
PRETTY GOOD ON STRENGTH...AND JUST A BIT SLOW (TOO FAR WEST). THE
SURFACE PRESSURE FALLS BULLSEYE WAS NEAR GREENVILLE MS...WHICH
SUGGESTS THE NORTHWEST MOVEMENT PREDICTED BY THE MODELS IS STILL
VALID.

SO...EVERYTHING BASICALLY HINGES ON THE WARM FRONT. ALL THE SURFACE
BASED INSTABILITY WAS (AT 18Z) STILL SOUTH OF OUR CWA. BUT AS THE
CURRENT LARGE RAIN MASS MOVES NORTHWARD...AND THE SURFACE LOW
DEEPENS AND MOVES CLOSER TO ALABAMA...SOUTH WINDS SHOULD HELP PUSH
THAT WARM FRONT NORTHWARD. THAT IS LIKELY TO LEAD TO
DESTABILIZATION...WHICH IS ALSO EXPECTED TO SPREAD A GOOD BIT TO THE
NORTH. THERE IS NO LACK OF SHEAR. THE MISSING INGREDIENT RIGHT NOW
IS INSTABILITY.

TIMING FOR THE HIGHEST SEVERE THREAT LARGELY DEPENDS ON STORM MODE.
IF THERE IS NO SEVERE CELL DEVELOPMENT AHEAD OF THE MAIN LINE OF
STORMS...THEN THE SEVERE WINDOW OF OPPORTUNITY IS RELATIVELY
DECREASED. I'VE ROUGHLY TIMED IT OUT TO START AROUND 5 PM IN THE FAR
WEST AND LAST AT LATE AS 2 AM IN THE EAST. IF DISCRETE CELLS WERE TO
DEVELOP AHEAD OF THE MAIN LINE...THEN THAT WOULD ADD TIME ON TO THE
BEGINNING OF THE PRECEDING TIMING.

/61/

.LONG TERM...

THE COLD FRONT WILL PUSH TO THE EAST OF CENTRAL ALABAMA BY 12Z
TOMORROW. IN ITS WAKE...LIGHT RAIN WILL BE POSSIBLE...AS THE LOW
MOVES TO THE NORTHEAST OF THE AREA. A STRONG PRESSURE GRADIENT WILL
CAUSE WINDS TO BE SUSTAINED ABOVE 20 MPH...WITH GUSTS ABOUT 30
MPH...SO A WIND ADVISORY SEEMS APPROPRIATE FOR ALL OF CENTRAL
ALABAMA THROUGH 00Z THURSDAY. HIGH PRESSURE WILL SETTLE INTO THE
AREA...WITH MUCH COLDER AIR FILTERING IN FROM THE NORTHWEST. MOVING
INTO FRIDAY...LOW PRESSURE WILL DEVELOP ALONG THE NORTHERN GULF
COAST AND THEN MOVE TO THE NORTHEAST...PULLING MOISTURE INTO CENTRAL
ALABAMA. A SHORTWAVE WILL ALSO MOVE THROUGH AND AID IN THE
DEVELOPMENT OF SHOWERS AHEAD OF A COLD FRONT. THE COLD FRONT WILL
PUSH THE SHOWERS THROUGH THE AREA DURING THE OVERNIGHT HOURS FRIDAY
AND INTO SATURDAY. STILL DOES NOT LOOK LIKE TEMPERATURES WILL BE LOW
ENOUGH TO SUPPORT FROZEN PRECIP. BEYOND SATURDAY...THE FORECAST
THROUGH REMAIN DRY THROUGH THE REST OF THIS PACKAGE.

73

&&

.AVIATION...
18Z TAF DISCUSSION

WIDESPREAD PRECIPITATION COVERS MOST OF THE TERMINALS AT THIS HOUR
AND WILL MOVE INTO KANB OVER THE NEXT HOUR OR SO. ALONG THE LEADING
EDGE OF THE PRECIPITATION CEILINGS ARE IFR BUT BEGIN TO LIFT
FURTHER TO THE SOUTH. THE MAIN CHALLENGE IS HOW FAR WILL THE
PRECIPITATION LIFT THROUGHOUT THE DAY. WENT A BIT PESSIMISTIC
KEEPING KBHM AND KANB IFR AND MVFR THROUGHOUT THE TAF CYCLE. A BRIEF
BREAK IN THE PRECIPITATION LOOKS TO OCCUR ACROSS THE OTHER TERMINALS
THIS AFTERNOON. HOWEVER...THE ATMOSPHERE WILL QUICKLY RECOVER THIS
AFTERNOON WITH WIDESPREAD SHOWERS AND THUNDERSTORMS EXPECTED TO
DEVELOP ALONG THE FRONT. TRIED TO TIME OUT THE BEST POSSIBILITY
OF THESE STORMS WITH A TEMPO GROUP IN THE TAFS. SHOWERS WILL
QUICKLY EXIT THE AREA AFTER 09Z. GUSTY SOUTHERLY WINDS WILL BE
POSSIBLE THIS AFTERNOON AND EVENING WITH GUSTY WESTERLY WINDS
EXPECTED TOMORROW BEHIND THE FRONT.
