What was reported inside it
| Time | Report | Where | Remark |
|---|---|---|---|

Local storm reports filed while the alert was in force, from inside its polygon or its counties.
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
Denver, CO (KDEN), launched 00:00Z, 5.5 hours before the alert went out and 82 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.

Area forecast discussion, Jun 14, 5:15 PM MDT, 6 hours 15 minutes before
AREA FORECAST DISCUSSION NATIONAL WEATHER SERVICE GOODLAND KS 515 PM MDT THU JUN 14 2012 .SHORT TERM...(THIS EVENING THROUGH FRIDAY) ISSUED AT 225 PM MDT THU JUN 14 2012 COMPLICATED FORECAST FOR LATE THIS AFTERNOON AND EVENING WITH STALLED COLD FRONT ACROSS THE CWA AND THE POTENTIAL FOR SEVERE THUNDERSTORMS TO DEVELOP BY 21Z. CURRENT VAPOR IMAGERY SHOWS COMPACT UPPER LEVEL TROUGH MOVING INTO MANITOBA WITH VORT MAX MOVING THROUGH NORTH DAKOTA. ANOTHER WAVE MOVING THROUGH THE SOUTHERN ROCKIES WILL IMPACT THE REGION LATE THIS AFTERNOON AND EVENING. AT THE SURFACE...COLD FRONT HAS SAGGED INTO THE CWA AND CURRENTLY STALLED ALONG A LINE FROM ABOUT MCCOOK NEBRASKA TO LAMAR COLORADO AND WILL BE THE MAIN FOCUS FOR CONVECTIVE DEVELOPMENT. EXPECT DEVELOPMENT TO BEGIN ALONG CONVERGENCE ZONE NEAR TRENTON AND WORK SOUTHWARD ALONG FRONT. SURFACE OBS IMPLY THAT WINDS ARE BEGINNING TO BACK ACROSS THE NORTHEAST CWA WITH MESOLOW DEVELOPING IN THE NORTHWEST CORNER OF KANSAS. THIS WILL ALLOW FOR INCREASED CONVERGENCE ALONG THE FRONTAL BOUNDARY. CAP HAS QUICKLY BEGUN TO ERODE AS DAYTIME HEATING HAS HELPED TO MIX OUT THE BOUNDARY LAYER. DEEP LAYER MOISTURE PROFILE WITH SURFACE DEW POINTS IN THE 50S AND 60S ACROSS THE CWA HAS CONTRIBUTED TO A VERY UNSTABLE AIR MASS ACROSS KANSAS AND NEBRASKA. WITH PRECIPITABLE WATER VALUES OF 1-1.5 INCHES AND RELATIVELY WEAK FLOW ALOFT...STORMS WILL BE CAPABLE OF PRODUCING HEAVY RAINFALL WHICH WILL LEAD TO FLOOD ISSUES ALONG THE CONVECTIVE LINE. IN ADDITION...SIGNIFICANT CAPE VALUES OF 3000-4000 J/KG WILL ALLOW FOR STRONG UPDRAFTS AND THE PRODUCTION OF LARGE HAIL. STORMS WILL MOVE EASTWARD THROUGH THIS EVENING. FRIDAY BRINGS ANOTHER CHANCE FOR THUNDERSTORMS AS LOW LEVEL MOISTURE CONTINUES TO BE ABUNDANTLY AVAILABLE AND ANOTHER SHORTWAVE TROUGH AND PACIFIC COLD FRONT APPROACH THE REGION. CYCLOGENESIS WILL DEVELOP ACROSS NEW MEXICO BY TOMORROW AFTERNOON AND WILL ALLOW FOR UPSLOPE FLOW PATTERN ALONG THE HIGH PLAINS. GREATEST THREAT FOR SEVERE WEATHER WILL EXTEND FROM NORTHEAST COLORADO NORTH INTO THE BLACK HILLS OF SOUTH DAKOTA. .LONG TERM...(FRIDAY NIGHT THROUGH THURSDAY) ISSUED AT 225 PM MDT THU JUN 14 2012 AN UPPER LEVEL SHORT WAVE TROUGH WILL MOVE IN FROM THE WEST FRIDAY EVENING. MODELS SHOW THE BEST INSTABILITY TO BE JUST AHEAD OF THE UPPER LEVEL TROUGH ALONG AND WEST OF THE COLORADO BORDER. THERE IS ALSO A SURFACE TROUGH JUST SOUTH OF THE AREA WHICH MAY ALSO SERVE AS A FOCUS FOR CONVECTION...SO WILL EXTEND PRECIP. CHANCES SOUTH TOWARD THE TRIBUNE AND LEOTI AREA. FURTHER EAST OF THE COLORADO BORDER POINT SOUNDINGS SHOW A WEAK CAP IN PLACE SO WILL KEEP AREAS FURTHER EAST DRY FOR THE EARLY EVENING. DURING THE LATE EVENING THE SHORT WAVE TROUGH CONTINUES TO PROGRESS EAST AS DOES THE AXIS OF INSTABILITY. AS THE LOW LEVEL JET STRENGTHENS 850-700MB THETA-E CONVERGENCE DEVELOPS OVER THE CENTRAL PART OF THE AREA. POINT SOUNDINGS SATURATE DOWN TO 850MB OR SO. WITH THE ADDED LIFTING OF THE LOW LEVEL JET AND INCREASED MOISTURE...THIS SHOULD BE THE BEST PERIOD FOR PRECIPITATION SO HAVE INCREASED PRECIP. CHANCES SOME DURING THE LATE EVENING. DURING THE OVERNIGHT PERIOD THE SHORT WAVE TROUGH PROGRESSES EASTWARD...EXITING THE AREA DURING THE EARLY MORNING. A COLD FRONT WILL MOVE INTO THE TRI-STATE AREA BEHIND THE SHORT WAVE TROUGH. WITH POINT SOUNDINGS SHOWING A DRYING TREND WILL HAVE PRECIP. CHANCES DECLINE THROUGH THE REST OF THE NIGHT. SATURDAY WILL LEAVE IN SOME SLIGHT CHANCES FOR THE MORNING OVER THE MCCOOK TO HILL CITY AREA AS THE UPPER LEVEL SHORT WAVE TROUGH EXITS THE AREA. THERE WILL BE SOME LINGERING MOISTURE FOR LIFTING ALONG THE COLD FRONT TO WORK WITH. THE COLD FRONT WILL EXIT THE AREA AROUND NOON...STALLING JUST SOUTH OF THE AREA DURING THE AFTERNOON. DURING THE AFTERNOON AN UPPER LEVEL SHORT WAVE TROUGH WILL MOVE OVER THE WESTERN PART OF THE AREA. AN INSTABILITY AXIS WILL DEVELOP ALONG THE COLORADO BORDER WITH MINIMAL CINH WHICH WILL ALLOW THUNDERSTORMS TO DEVELOP AHEAD OF THE UPPER LEVEL TROUGH. MODELS ALSO SHOW AN AREA OF SURFACE CONVERGENCE IN THE WIND FIELD CO-LOCATED WITH THE INSTABILITY AXIS WHICH SHOULD SERVE AS A FOCUS FOR STORM DEVELOPMENT. THE STALLED FRONT SOUTH OF THE AREA WILL ALSO SERVE AS A FOCUS FOR CONVECTION DURING THE LATE AFTERNOON SO HAVE EXTENDED THE PRECIP. CHANCES FROM THE COLORADO BORDER EAST TOWARD LEOTI AND HILL CITY. TRAINING THUNDERSTORMS MAY DEVELOP AROUND THE TRIBUNE TO HILL CITY AREA DUE TO THE MEAN FLOW RUNNING PARALLEL TO THE STALLED FRONT JUST SOUTH OF THE AREA. SATURDAY NIGHT ANOTHER UPPER LEVEL SHORT WAVE TROUGH MOVES THROUGH THE AREA. MODELS DISAGREE WITH THE TIMING OF SHORT WAVE TROUGH. THE NAM/SREF/ECMWF MOVE THE TROUGH THROUGH FASTER WHILE THE GFS MOVES THE TROUGH THROUGH SLOWER. WILL SIDE WITH THE CONSENSUS AND KEEP THE WEST HALF OF THE AREA DRY WITH SOME PRECIP. CHANCES OVER THE EAST DURING THE OVERNIGHT HOURS BEFORE THE SHORT WAVE TROUGH EXITS DURING THE EARLY MORNING HOURS. FOR THE SUNDAY THROUGH THURSDAY PERIOD A LONG WAVE TROUGH WILL REMAIN JUST NORTH OF THE AREA. ON TUESDAY AN UPPER LEVEL SHORT WAVE TROUGH WILL DEEPEN OVER THE GREAT BASIN...TURNING THE UPPER LEVEL FLOW TO THE SOUTHWEST. TUESDAY NIGHT A SHORT WAVE TROUGH WILL MOVE THROUGH THE AREA ACROSS A DRY LINE. THIS WILL LEAD TO PRECIPITATION CHANCES FOR THE EASTERN PART OF THE AREA. WEDNESDAY THERE WILL BE SOME LINGERING PRECIP. CHANCES IN THE FAR EAST AS THE SHORT WAVE TROUGH DEPARTS THE AREA. A COLD FRONT WILL MOVE IN WEDNESDAY NIGHT....GIVING THE AREA THE BEST SHOT AT PRECIP. CHANCES FOR NEXT WEEK. BEHIND THE FRONT THE LONG WAVE TROUGH AXIS WILL MOVE THROUGH THE AREA...BRINGING PRECIP. CHANCES TO AN END. THERE MAY BE A FEW LINGERING PRECIP. CHANCES OUT EAST AND SOUTH BEFORE THE FRONT AND TROUGH AXIS EXIT THE AREA THURSDAY MORNING. && .AVIATION...(FOR THE 00Z TAFS THROUGH 00Z FRIDAY EVENING) ISSUED AT 509 PM MDT THU JUN 14 2012 PRIMARY AVIATION CONCERN THROUGH THE FIRST 3 HR OF THE TAF PERIOD WILL BE THUNDERSTORMS AT KMCK AND WITHIN THE VICINITY OF KGLD. CANT RULE OUT STRONG STORM AT EITHER TERMINAL...WITH VERY STRONG WINDS AND LARGE HAIL POSSIBLE. BEST THUNDERSTORM CHANCES WILL REMAIN EAST OF KGLD...THOUGH BASED ON SATELLITE/RADAR COULDNT RULE OUT DEVELOPMENT WITHIN VICINITY OVER THE NEXT FEW HOURS. MVFR CIGS ARE EXPECTED TO DEVELOP AROUND SUNRISE FRIDAY MORNING AND THEN SHOULD IMPROVE BY MIDDAY.
