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 Fort Worth, TX wrote its last area forecast discussion before this severe thunderstorm warning went out at Jun 12, 1:14 PM CDT, 1 hour 23 minutes earlier.
Area forecast discussion, Jun 12, 1:14 PM CDT, 1 hour 23 minutes before
AREA FORECAST DISCUSSION...UPDATED NATIONAL WEATHER SERVICE FORT WORTH TX 114 PM CDT TUE JUN 12 2012 .UPDATE... WE/VE DECIDED TO ADD THE SOUTHERN TIER OF COUNTIES TO THE WATCH AND REMOVE SOME OF THE NORTHERN TIER AS CONVECTION SHOULD CONTINUE TO DRIVE SOUTHEAST THROUGHOUT THE AFTERNOON AND EVENING HOURS. AS A RESULT OF THIS ACTION...WE HAD TO ALSO ADJUST AFTERNOON POPS OVER THE SOUTHERN HALF TO BETTER MATCH EXPECTED TRENDS AND MOVEMENT. 75 && .AVIATION... CONCERNS ARE TIMING OF CONVECTION OFF TO THE WEST AROUND MIDDAY AND TIMING/DURATION OF N/NW FLOW WIND SHIFTS WITH MESO HIGH OVER SW OKLAHOMA. PLENTY OF VFR CLOUDINESS AHEAD OF LINEAR MCS OVER WESTERN NORTH TX AT THIS TIME ACROSS ALL NORTH TX TERMINALS. PROJECTIONS BRING AT LEAST SCATTERED CONVECTION ACROSS DFW METRO AIRPORTS BETWEEN 1930 AND 20Z AND LINGERING THROUGH 23Z-00Z WITH SECONDARY BATCH MOVING TOWARD GRAHAM AND BRECKENRIDGE ALREADY. WILL CARRY A 4 HR VCTS/CB WORDING BETWEEN 19Z-23Z ACCORDINGLY AS THIS WINDOW IS THE HIGHEST CONFIDENCE FOR POTENTIAL THUNDER ACROSS DFW METRO AREA. WILL NOT INTRODUCE ANY TEMPO PERIODS AT THIS TIME WITH UNCERTAINTY HOW WELL STORMS HOLD TOGETHER WITH BEST INSTABILITY AXIS JUST WEST-SOUTH OF THE METRO. WILL INSERT TEMPO GROUPS ONCE CONFIDENCE ON TIMING IS HIGHER. FOR WACO...SUSPECT THE BULK OF WESTERN NORTH TX MCS WILL PROPAGATE SE TOWARD THIS AREA AFTER 21Z. HAVE ADDED TEMPO GROUP FOR GUSTY WINDS AND BORDERLINE IFR/MVFR CIGS/VSBYS WITH THE CONVECTION AND WILL END IT BY EARLY EVENING. MESO HIGH OKLAHOMA HAS RESULTED IN A SLOW SOUTHWARD MOVEMENT OF OLD FRONT NOW INTO DENTON/ALLIANCE AND WILL CARRY A PREVAILING NE FLOW NEAR 10 KTS THROUGH EARLY EVENING...THEN WINDS SHOULD MODIFY BACK TO LIGHT SYNOPTIC ESE FLOW 5-8 KTS OVERNIGHT. AS FOR LOW CIGS AROUND DAYBREAK WEDNESDAY MORNING...WILL JUST INTRODUCE LOW VFR CIGS FOR NOW WITH UNCERTAINTY REGARDING HOW STORM OUTFLOW AND HIGH CLOUDS MODIFY POTENTIAL FOR MVFR CIG DEVELOPMENT. 05/ && .PREV UPDATE... .UPDATE... HAVE INCREASED POPS AHEAD OF THE CONVECTION APPROACHING YOUNG COUNTY. THE HIGHER POPS ALSO EXTEND DOWN INTO THE METROPLEX AND ACROSS AREAS NORTH THROUGH NORTHEAST FOR THE AFTERNOON HOURS WHERE HEATING WILL BE BEST. THE STORMS SHOULD RIDE EAST-SOUTHEAST ALONG THE THE NORTHERN EDGE OF A BOUNDARY THAT EXTENDS FROM BRECKENRIDGE TO PALESTINE. THIS ALSO COINCIDES CLOSELY WITH THE NORTHERN EDGE OF A TIGHT GRADIENT IN CAPE VALUES THAT SEPARATES VERY UNSTABLE AIR TO THE SOUTH AND MORE WORKED OVER AIR TO THE NORTH AND NORTHEAST. LARGE HAIL AND DAMAGING WINDS WILL AGAIN BE THE MAIN SEVERE THREATS. WE ALSO INCREASED POPS TO 40 PERCENT ALONG AND SOUTH THE BOUNDARY OVER THE SOUTHERN CWA. 75 && .PREV DISCUSSION... /ISSUED 409 AM CDT TUE JUN 12 2012/ EVEN THOUGH MEASURABLE RAIN LAST NIGHT WAS LIMITED IN COVERAGE CONSIDERING ALL AREAS NORTH OF I-20 HAD HOURS OF THUNDER/LIGHTNING AND GUSTY WINDS...MOST OF THE REGION IS INDICATING SIGNS THAT CONVECTIVE OVERTURNING AND STABILIZATION HAS OCCURRED. THE 70+ DEWPOINTS HAVE BEEN REPLACED BY READINGS IN THE UPPER 50S TO LOW 60S. A LARGE AREA OF PRESSURE RISES TRANSLATED ACROSS THE NORTHERN CWA INDICATING THERMODYNAMIC PROFILE MODIFICATIONS SUGGESTIVE OF STABILIZATION. AND FINALLY...LATEST ACARS DATA SHOWS WARMING IN THE MID LEVELS AS WARMER AIR WAS TRANSPORTED AND RELEASED INTO THE MID-UPPER LEVELS BY STORM EXHAUST. THE MID LEVEL LAPSE RATES THAT WERE NEAR 10 DEG/KM YESTERDAY ARE NOW ONLY NEAR 7-8 DEG/KM. EVEN IF THE 70 DEWPOINTS MAKE A RETURN...CAPE VALUES WILL BE MORE MODEST THAN YESTERDAY. THE ONLY REGION OF THE CWA THAT LIKELY ESCAPED STABILIZATION IS THE FAR SOUTHERN ZONES...BUT THIS AREA REMAINS STRONGLY CAPPED THIS MORNING. OBVIOUSLY THE PRIMARY MEDIUM RANGE GUIDANCE WAS INITIALIZED BEFORE THE BRUNT OF THE CONVECTIVE ACTIVITY. THESE MODELS DONT EXPLICITLY SIMULATE CONVECTION AND DO A POOR JOB FORECASTING ITS AFTER- EFFECTS ON THE ENVIRONMENT. BY IN LARGE...THE MAIN SYNOPTIC MODELS TEND TO BE TOO AGGRESSIVE WITH CONVECTIVE FORECASTS IN THE FIRST 12-24 HOURS AFTER AN EVENT. THE HI-RES WRF MODELS DO A BETTER JOB AT RESOLVING CONVECTIVE INFLUENCES...BUT ARE SADLY ALSO OFFERING 3 DIFFERENT FORECASTS. AND UNFORTUNATELY EVEN THE RAPID UPDATE MODELS...HRRR AND RAP...ARE AT ODDS WITH EACH OTHER. CONFIDENCE IS LOW...BUT IN GENERAL WILL BE FORECASTING LESS RAIN COVERAGE AND DOWNPLAYING THE RISK OF SEVERE WEATHER...GOING ON THE HUNCH THAT INSTABILITY IS MORE LIMITED THAN SHOWN BY THE MODELS. WILL SHOW 20 POPS ACROSS THE AREA TODAY. ISOLATED ELEVATED SHOWERS OR WEAK STORMS WILL BE POSSIBLE THIS MORNING. EXPECT CLOUDS TO CLEAR DURING THE MID MORNING WITH GENERALLY SUNNY CONDITIONS EXPECTED THIS AFTERNOON. TEMPS WILL WARM ACCORDINGLY BUT SINCE LOW LEVEL THERMAL PROFILES ARE MUCH COOLER TODAY...HIGHS SHOULD BE A FEW DEGREES COOLER THAN YESTERDAY. EXPECT AN OUTFLOW BOUNDARY FROM THE MCS IN NE TX TO STALL OVER THE SOUTHERN ZONES THIS AFTERNOON AND POSSIBLY BECOME A FOCUS FOR STORMS. SINCE LARGE SCALE LIFT IS ABSENT...STORMS SHOULD STAY ISOLATED...BUT SEVERE WEATHER WOULD BE POSSIBLE AS CAPE REACHES 3000+ J/KG AS THE AIRMASS IN THE SOUTHERN CWA IS LIKELY UNDISTURBED. WILL KEEP 20 POPS GOING IN THE NORTHERN ZONES THIS AFTERNOON OUT OF RESPECT FOR SEVERAL OF THE MODELS WHICH FORECAST THE CONVECTION NEAR AMARILLO RIGHT NOW TO DRIVE SOUTHEAST AS A MCS AND REACH THE CWA BY EARLY AFTERNOON. I PERSONALLY DO NOT THINK IT WILL MAKE IT...BUT I HAVE BEEN DOING THIS JOB LONG ENOUGH TO KNOW NOT TO DISCOUNT THE POSSIBILITY. INSTEAD OF AN MCS ARRIVING IN THE EARLY AFTERNOON...BELIEVE ONE WILL ARRIVE LATER TONIGHT. THIS MCS SHOULD AMALGAMATE FROM SCATTERED CONVECTION THAT DEVELOPS ACROSS THE TX PANHANDLE LATER THIS AFTERNOON. THE STRENGTH OF THIS MCS WILL DEPEND ON HOW MUCH THE AIRMASS NORTH OF I-20 RECOVERS THIS AFTERNOON. I THINK WE WILL GET ENOUGH INSTABILITY TO ALLOW THE MCS TO REACH THE CWA...BUT NOT ENOUGH INSTABILITY AND SHEAR TO EXPECT A BIG SEVERE WEATHER THREAT WITH THIS SYSTEM. OBVIOUSLY THE TRENDS OF THE DAY WILL HELP BETTER DEFINE THIS THREAT. POPS TONIGHT WILL BE HIGHEST IN THE NW...BUT LOWER THAN GUIDANCE DUE TO UNCERTAINTIES REGARDING HOW LONG THE MCS WILL HOLD TOGETHER IN AN ENVIRONMENT CHARACTERIZED BY ALREADY LIMITED SHEAR. WILL KEEP SLIGHT CHANCE POPS GOING INTO WEDNESDAY...BUT AN UPPER RIDGE WILL BE BUILDING INTO THE AREA FROM THE SOUTHWEST WITH SUBSIDENCE SPREADING INTO THE REGION. THE REMAINDER OF THE FORECAST IS UNEVENTFUL. A WEAK UPPER LEVEL RIDGE WILL BUILD OVER THE AREA AND RESULT IN DIMINISHING DEEP LAYER MOISTURE AND SUBSIDENCE...PROMOTING A DRY FORECAST. THE LOW LEVEL WINDS WILL BE OUT OF THE SOUTHEAST WHICH SHOULD KEEP HIGH TEMPS IN THE 90 TO 95 RANGE THURSDAY THROUGH MONDAY. TR.92 && .PRELIMINARY POINT TEMPS/POPS... DALLAS-FT.
