The Wichita radar (KICT), 66 km from the middle of the area, began a volume at 23:58 UTC, the scan nearest the moment this went out.

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.

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 Wichita, KS wrote its last area forecast discussion before this severe thunderstorm warning went out at May 30, 3:43 PM CDT, 3 hours 13 minutes earlier.

Area forecast discussion, May 30, 3:43 PM CDT, 3 hours 13 minutes before

AREA FORECAST DISCUSSION
NATIONAL WEATHER SERVICE WICHITA KS
343 PM CDT WED MAY 30 2012

.DISCUSSION...

FORECAST CONCERNS ARE SEVERE STORM CHANCES THIS EVENING/TONIGHT.
THEN COOLER TEMPS FOR THU/FRI.

THIS EVENING-TONIGHT:
A RATHER COMPLICATED SEVERE THREAT IS DEVELOPING ACROSS KANSAS LATE
THIS AFTERNOON AND THIS EVENING. AXIS OF UNSTABLE AIR CURRENTLY IS
OVER THE HIGH PLAINS FROM KDDC TO KGLD. JUST TO THE NORTH OF THIS
AXIS IS A FAIRLY POTENT SHORTWAVE AND COLD FRONT OVER SW NEB.  THE
COMBINATION OF THE ABOVE SYSTEMS WILL COMBINE FOR A POTENTIAL ONE-
TWO PUNCH OF SEVERE WEATHER FOR THE FORECAST AREA THIS EVENING AND
TONIGHT.

EXPECT INITIAL STORM DEVELOPMENT OVER THE HIGH PLAINS...POSSIBLY
INTO CEN KS...AS THIS AREA BECOMES UNCAPPED. BULK SHEAR OF 60 KTS
AND VERY UNSTABLE AIR SUGGESTS THAT SOME DISCRETE SUPERCELLS WILL
DEVELOP IN THE HIGH PLAINS WITH SBCAPES OF 3500-4000 J/KG. ONCE THE
SUPERCELLS GET GOING...PREVAILING FLOW...SUGGESTS THAT A FEW
SUPERCELLS WILL MOVE EAST-SOUTHEAST TOWARDS CENTRAL AND SOUTH
CENTRAL KS LATER THIS EVENING. THIS COMBINATION OF SHEAR/INSTABILITY
SUGGESTS VERY LARGE HAIL AND DAMAGING WINDS WILL BE THE FIRST THREAT
FOR SOUTH CENTRAL KS.

NEXT CONCERN WILL BE A STRONG COLD FRONT EXPECTED TO PUSH SOUTH INTO
CEN KS LATE THIS EVENING/OVERNIGHT.  EXPECTING ANOTHER ROUND OF
CONVECTION TO DEVELOP ACROSS NRN/CEN KS ALONG THIS FRONTAL BOUNDARY
AS IT DROPS SOUTHEAST ACROSS THE FORECAST AREA...AS CONVERGENCE
INCREASES.  THIS CONVECTION WILL THEN RAPIDLY DROP SOUTH ALONG OR
JUST WEST OF INTERSTATE 135...PRODUCING A POSSIBLE DAMAGING WIND
THREAT AS IT TURNS INTO A COMPLEX OF STORMS.  COLD POOL ASSOCIATED
WITH THIS SYSTEM...WILL BE KEY TO HOW STRONG THE DOWNBURST WINDS ARE
WITH THIS CONVECTION. CERTAINLY LOOKS LIKE STRONG POSSIBLY SEVERE
STORMS AND GOOD SOAKING RAINS FOR A GOOD PORTION OF THE AREA AS IT
DIVES SOUTH-SOUTHEAST LATE THIS EVENING AND OVERNIGHT.

THU-FRI:
COULD SEE SOME CONVECTION LINGER OVER SOUTHEAST KS FOR THE EARLY
PORTION OF THE DAY...AS CONVECTIVE COMPLEX WILL PROBABLY BE EITHER
MOVING STRAIGHT EAST OR SOUTHEAST OF THE AREA. SO WILL HOLD ONTO
SOME MORNING POPS IN ERN KS FOR THE MORNING HOURS.

THE MAIN DIFFERENCE FOR THU-FRI WILL BE THE NOTICEABLY COOLER AND
DRIER AIR TO MOVE ACROSS THE AREA.  COULD ACTUALLY SEE SOME GUSTY
NORTHEAST WINDS FOR THU AFTERNOON ACROSS ERN KS AS MAIN SHORTWAVE
STILL MOVES ACROSS THIS AREA.  COULD ALSO SEE SOME DIURNALLY DRIVEN
SHOWERS ACROSS NERN KS AS WELL WITH THE STEEP LAPSE RATES...BUT
THINK MOST OF THIS WILL REMAIN NORTH OF SOUTHEAST KS.

A WEAK MID LEVEL FEATURE LOOKS TO DIVE SOUTH ACROSS THE AREA BY FRI
AFTERNOON...AS MID LEVEL WARM ADVECTION INCREASES.  THIS LOOKS TO
INCREASE MID LEVEL MOISTURE AS IT DROPS SOUTH...WITH 305-310K
ISENTROPIC LIFT INCREASING.  NOT SURE IF MOST OF THIS WILL BE VIRGA
OR SPRINKLES AS IT MOVES ACROSS AS LOW LAYERS REMAIN VERY DRY...BUT
WILL KEEP A SLIGHT POP IN FOR THIS CHANCE.

SAT-SUN:
RETURN SFC FLOW LOOKS TO CONTINUE FOR SAT INTO SUN...ESPECIALLY FOR
AREAS ACROSS THE HIGH PLAINS.  SOME UNCERTAINLY ON POPS FOR THIS
TIME FRAME...AS GFS TRYS TO DEVELOP CONVECTION OVER THE HIGH
PLAINS....WITH THIS CONVECTION PROPAGATING EAST INTO THE AREA BOTH
SAT INTO SUN.

REST OF THE EXTENDED:
MEDIUM RANGE MODELS SUGGEST THAT THE MID LEVEL RIDGE WILL BUILD OVER
THE ROCKIES OR INTO THE NRN PLAINS FOR THE BEGINNING OF THE WORK
WEEK.  SOME DIFFERENCES ON HOW THE SFC FEATURES WILL PLAY OUT...WITH
PLACEMENT OF THE RIDGE AFFECTING THIS SOMEWHAT.  BUT CURRENT
CONSENSUS SUGGESTS THAT SOME DIURNAL STORM CHANCES FOR MON NIGHT
THROUGH WED.
