The radar
The Tulsa radar (KINX), 146 km from the middle of the area, began a volume at 10:02 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.
The nearest sounding before it
Springfield, MO (KSGF), launched 00:00Z, 10.0 hours before the alert went out and 157 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.

$$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 Apr 15, 3:37 AM CDT, 1 hour 24 minutes earlier.
Area forecast discussion, Apr 15, 3:37 AM CDT, 1 hour 24 minutes before
AREA FORECAST DISCUSSION NATIONAL WEATHER SERVICE WICHITA KS 337 AM CDT SUN APR 15 2012 .DISCUSSION... FORECAST CONCERNS TODAY WILL BE MORNING CONVECTION CONTINUING TO MOVE EAST EARLY TODAY WITH GUSTY WINDS LATER THIS AFTERNOON. TODAY-TONIGHT: ONGOING CONVECTION WILL CONTINUE ACROSS THE ERN HALF OF THE FORECAST AREA WITH A VERY UNSTABLE AIR MASS STILL IN PLACE. MID LEVEL SHEAR PROFILES STILL SUGGEST A LINGERING DAMAGING WIND THREAT...BUT TORNADO THREAT LOOKS TO BE DIMINISHING RATHER RAPIDLY. SO COULD SEE CURRENT TORNADO WATCH CANCELLED EARLY BEFORE IT EXPIRES AT 11Z. DRY LINE LOCATED ACROSS THE CENTRAL PORTION OF KS EARLY THIS MORNING...WITH CONVECTION CONTINUING JUST AHEAD OF THE DRY LINE FOR MOST OF CENTRAL KS INTO ERN KS. SHORT TERM MODELS SUGGEST THAT THIS DRY LINE/FRONTAL BOUNDARY WILL CONTINUE TO PUSH EAST THIS MORNING AS MAIN SHORTWAVE MOVES ACROSS CEN KS. AS THIS FRONT MOVES EAST...POST FRONTAL DRY SLOT WILL MOVE ACROSS THE AREA DURING THE DAYTIME... WITH STRONG GUSTY WINDS MOVING ACROSS THE AREA LATER TODAY AS 850H WINDS OF 40-50 KTS ARE TRANSFERRED TO THE GROUND ASSOCIATED WITH THE TIGHT GRADIENT. SO PLAN ON ISSUING A WIND ADVISORY FOR MOST AREAS FOR THE DAYTIME HOURS. EXPECT THE GUSTY WINDS TO ARRIVE A LITTLE LATER ACROSS THE FLINT HILLS...AS BOUNDARY CONTINUES TO PUSH INTO WRN MO LATE THIS AFTERNOON. COULD ALSO SEE A FEW DIURNALLY DRIVEN SHOWERS ACROSS CEN KS...AS THE MAIN SHORTWAVE MOVES ACROSS CEN KS. SO WILL KEEP A LOW POP ACROSS CEN KS FOR THIS CHANCE. SUN-MON: WEAK RIDGING LOOKS TO MOVE ACROSS THE AREA FOR SUN...AS MAIN STORM SYSTEM MOVES WELL WEST OF THE AREA. SO WILL SEE A PLEASANT SPRING DAY ON SUN. NEXT WEAK SHORTWAVE LOOKS TO MOVE OUT OF THE NRN PLAINS AND ACROSS NEB FOR MON. AS THIS MOVES ACROSS...COULD SEE MID LEVEL SATURATION LEAD TO A SCATTERED SHOWER AND POSSIBLY A FEW RUMBLES OF THUNDER CHANCE FOR THE DAYTIME HOURS MON...ESPECIALLY ACROSS CEN KS. TUE-THU: AFTER ANOTHER WEAK RIDGING/SUNNY DAY ON TUE...WILL SEE ANOTHER QUICK MOVING SHORTWAVE MOVE FROM THE PACIFIC NW INTO THE PLAINS FOR THU AND THU NIGHT. THIS LOOKS LIKE THE NEXT SIGNIFICANT CHANCE OF STRONG TO POSSIBLY SEVERE STORMS...AS A LOW PRESSURE AREA DEVELOPS IN THE OK PANHANDLE WITH A STALLED FRONTAL BOUNDARY SETTING UP ACROSS CEN KS. MOVEMENT OF THIS NEXT TROUGH IS A BIT QUESTIONABLE WITH MEDIUM RANGE MODELS A BIT UNCERTAIN IN THE TIMING...DEPTH AND EXACT LOCATION. KETCHAM && .AVIATION...06Z TAFS KRSL/KSLN/KHUT/KICT/KCNU STRONG-SEVERE THUNDERSTORMS WILL BE IN THE VICINITY OF KSLN AND MOVING INTO KHUT/KICT SHORTLY AFTER START OF FORECAST. DRYLINE WILL BE MOVING ACROSS MOST OF THE AREA THROUGH DAYBREAK. IFR CONDITIONS...HAIL AND 50KT+ WINDS WILL BE BRIEFLY POSSIBLE WITH ANY OF THE SEVERE STORMS. VERY GUSTY SOUTHWEST WINDS ANTICIPATED BEHIND DRYLINE. SOME VFR CLOUDS IN WRAP AROUND POSSIBLE AT KRSL/KSLN SUN AFTERNOON. -HOWERTON && .PRELIMINARY POINT TEMPS/POPS...
