Did it verify
Not verified. The Iowa Environmental Mesonet's Cow found no qualifying storm report inside this tornado 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.

AREA FORECAST DISCUSSION
NATIONAL WEATHER SERVICE JACKSON MS
400 PM CDT THU AUG 30 2012
.SHORT TERM...TONIGHT THROUGH SATURDAY NIGHT.
LATEST SATELLITE AND NHC ANALYSIS SHOWS TROPICAL DEPRESSION ISSAC
OVER NORTH CENTRAL LOUISIANA...MOVING NORTHWEST. AREA RADAR
CONTINUE TO SHOW STRONG SPIRAL BANDS PUSHING NORTH ACROSS THE
REGION. THE SPIRAL BANDS HAVE CAUSED NUMEROUS FLOOD REPORTS AND DOWN
TREES AND POWER LINES ACROSS MAINLY THE SOUTHERN PORTION OF THE
FORECAST AREA. MESO ANALYSIS SHOWS SOME DRY AIR IN RADAR IMAGERY
FILTERING IN AROUND THE SPIRAL BANDS...WHICH WILL AID IN TORNADIC
POTENTIAL FOR THIS AFTERNOON INTO THIS EVENING.VISIBLE IMAGERY SHOWS SOME
THINNING OF CLOUD COVER BETWEEN THE SPIRAL BANDS WHICH WILL ENHANCE
INSTABILITY AND AID IN SOME TORNADO POTENTIAL COMBINED WITH STRONG
SHEAR FROM ISSAC. IT LOOKS LIKE THE BEST TORNADO POTENTIAL WILL BE
MAINLY ALONG AND EAST OF THE MS RIVER FOR THIS AFTERNOON INTO THIS
EVENING.
ISAAC IS EXPECTED TO REMAIN ON HIS NORTHWEST TREK OVER THE NEXT 48
HOURS WHILE GRADUALLY WEAKENING.
A FLASH FLOOD WATCH REMAINS IN EFFECT FOR A LARGE PORTION OF THE CWA
FOR THIS AFTERNOON INTO THIS EVENING. THE ONLY LOCATIONS NOT IN THIS
WATCH IS THE THE GOLDEN TRIANGLE REGION. WITH AN ADDITIONAL 3-5
INCHES OF RAIN POSSIBLE THIS AFTERNOON WITHIN THE WATCH AREA...ON
TOP OF WHAT'S ALREADY FALLEN OVER THE REGION THE PAST 24
HOURS...FLOODING WILL CONTINUE TO BE A MAJOR CONCERN ACROSS MOST OF
THE REGION. WILL CONTINUE THE FLOOD WATCH THIS EVENING ACROSS THE
NORTHWEST DELTA INTO AREAS ACROSS THE MS RIVER UNTIL 1 AM.
ALSO GUSTY WINDS AND ISSAC PUSHING NORTHWEST THERE WILL BE SOME
BREEZY CONDITIONS THROUGH EARLY THIS EVENING GENERALLY ALONG AND
WEST OF INTERSTATE 55. SO HAVE MADE SOME ADJUSTMENTS TO THE WIND
ADVISORY FROM 4 TO 7 PM.
ANOTHER ISSUE THAT WE'LL HAVE TO KEEP A VERY CLOSE EYE ON THROUGH
THIS EVENING WILL BE THE POTENTIAL FOR TORNADOES SPINNING UP IN
ISAAC OUTER RAINBANDS AS THEY LIFT NORTHWARD OVER CENTRAL AND
EASTERN PORTIONS OF THE CWA. SLIGHTLY DRIER AIR ALOFT WILL WORK
IT'S WAY NORTH OVER THE CENTRAL AND EASTERN PORTIONS OF THE AREA
THROUGH THE AFTERNOON RESULTING IN SOME SLIGHTLY COOLER LOW AND MID
LEVELS TEMPS TODAY. THIS COUPLED WITH DAYTIME HEATING WILL RESULT
IN INCREASED INSTABILITY...CAPE VALUES BETWEEN 1000-1500 J/KG...THIS
AFTERNOON CAUSING A BIT MORE IN THE WAY OF INCREASED CONVECTION
WITHIN ISAAC'S RAINBANDS. THIS COUPLED WITH SUFFICIENT DEEP-LAYER
WIND SHEAR OVER THE REGION...IS EXPECTED TO CAUSE AN ENHANCED RISK
FOR TORNADOES TODAY. THIS RISK CURRENTLY LOOKS TO BE GREATEST OVER
AREAS ALONG AND EAST OF A BROOKHAVEN TO GREENVILLE LINE.
FRIDAY INTO FRIDAY NIGHT...CONDITIONS WILL GRADUALLY IMPROVE THROUGH
THE PERIOD AS ISAAC IS EXPECTED TO WEAKEN AS IT EVENTUALLY BECOMES A
REMNANT LOW AS HE CONTINUES NORTHWARD INTO WESTERN ARKANSAS. THERE
MAY BE ENOUGH INSTABILITY FROM INSOLATION AND LEFT OVER SHEAR FOR A
FEW STRONG STORMS IN THE NORTHWEST DELTA REGION ON FRIDAY...BUT NOT
ENOUGH TO MENTION IN THE HWO FOR NOW. WINDS WILL REMAIN BREEZY
THROUGH THE PERIOD...WITH DECENT RAIN CHANCES AS PLENTY OF MOISTURE
WILL REMAIN OVER THE REGION IN ISAAC'S WAKE.
SATURDAY THROUGH SATURDAY NIGHT...UPPER RIDGING WILL BUILD ACROSS
THE NORTHERN GULF AS THE REMNANT LOW OF ISSAC PULLS INTO MISSOURI.
THERE WILL BE ENOUGH PWATS AND INSTABILITY FOR SOME AIRMASS
CONVECTION DURING THE PERIOD.
AS FAR AS POPS AND TEMPS ARE CONCERN WENT WITH A BLEND OF GMOS AND
MAV GUIDANCE./17/
.LONG TERM...SUNDAY THROUGH THURSDAY...THE CHANCE OF RAIN WILL
CONTINUE THIS WEEKEND BY DRIER WEATHER LOOKS TO BE IN STORE FOR MUCH
OF NEXT WEEK. COME SATURDAY MORNING THE REMNANTS OF ISAAC IS
EXPECTED TO BE MOVING EAST NORTHEAST OVER THE MID MISSISSIPPI VALLEY
WITH ASSOCIATED TROUGHING SAGGING INTO NORTHERN MISSISSIPPI. RIDGES
SURFACE AND ALOFT WILL BE ACROSS THE SOUTHEAST STATES NOSING ACROSS
THE SOUTHERN PORTIONS OF OUR CWA. A VERY MOIST AIRMASS WILL STILL BE
IN PLACE OVER OUR CWA WITH PWS ABOVE TWO INCHES. THIS COMBINED WITH
DAYTIME HEATING SHOULD RESULT IN SCATTERED STORMS DURING THE
AFTERNOON AND EVENING ACROSS MUCH OF THE AREA. ABOVE NORMAL
TEMPERATURES WILL MAKE A RETURN WITH SITES TOPPING OUT IN THE LOW TO
MID 90S. MID LEVEL TROUGHING ASSOCIATED WITH THE REMNANTS OF ISSAC
WILL STILL BE OVER NORTHERN MISSISSIPPI SUNDAY WHILE THE MID LEVEL
RIDGE SHIFTS WEST. LOWER HEIGHTS COMBINED WITH OUR MOIST AIRMASS AND
DAYTIME HEATING SHOULD LEAD TO AT LEAST SCATTERED DIURNALLY DRIVEN
CONVECTION AGAIN SUNDAY. DRIER WEATHER IS EXPECTED MONDAY AND
TUESDAY. THE GFS IS FASTER THAN THE ECMWF WITH A WEAK COLD FRONT
ACROSS THE PLAINS TUESDAY. THE GFS DROPS THIS FRONT IN OUR CWA
TUESDAY NIGHT AND DRIVES IT TO THE GULF COAST BY NOON WEDNESDAY...
GENERATING PCPN OVER OUR CWA TUESDAY INTO WEDNESDAY. THE ECMWF DOES
DROP THE FRONT INTO OUR CWA WEDNESDAY AND STALLS IT ACROSS OUR AREA
BY WEDNESDAY EVENING WITH PCPN BACK ACROSS OUR CWA WEDNESDAY. BOTH
MODELS ARE IN DECENT AGREEMENT THAT A 1020MB HIGH WILL MOVE OVER THE
MID MISSISSIPPI VALLEY BY THURSDAY MORNING PUSHING THE FRONTAL
BOUNDARY FARTHER SOUTH AND BRINGING DRIER AIR INTO OUR CWA. /22/
&&
AVIATION...
ISAAC IS LOCATED ABOUT 25MI W OF MONROE LA CURRENTLY. THE HEAVIEST
OF RAIN HAS MOVED OUT OF THE AREA BY NOW...HOWEVER STRAY RAIN BANDS
WILL CONTINUE MOVING THROUGH MS TONIGHT AND TOMORROW. ARKLAMISS IS
STILL SEEING HIGH EAST TO SOUTHEAST WINDS ACROSS THE ENTIRE AREA
WITH GUSTS UP TO 30KTS. MVFR CONDITIONS WILL PREVAIL THROUGHOUT THE
FORECAST PERIOD WITH INTERMITTENT IFR CONDITIONS AS RAIN BANDS WILL
MOVE OVER ALL SITES AT VARIOUS TIMES IN THE FORECAST PERIOD. CLOUDS
FROM ISAAC WILL BEGIN THINNING OUT AND BE ON THE DECREASE TOMORROW.
