Verified. The Iowa Environmental Mesonet's Cow matched one storm report to this severe thunderstorm warning; the first came 41 minutes after it went out.

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 Norman, OK wrote its last area forecast discussion before this severe thunderstorm warning went out at Aug 25, 1:38 PM CDT, 4 hours 21 minutes earlier.

Area forecast discussion, Aug 25, 1:38 PM CDT, 4 hours 21 minutes before

AREA FORECAST DISCUSSION
NATIONAL WEATHER SERVICE NORMAN OK
138 PM CDT SAT AUG 25 2012

.AVIATION DISCUSSION...
RAIN AND THUNDERSTORMS ARE EXPECTED TO FORM OR MOVE INTO NORTHERN
OKLAHOMA THIS AFTERNOON AND SLWOLY SPREAD SOUTHEAST OVERNIGHT. A
WEAK FRONT WILL FOLLOW AND SHIFT WINDS TO THE NORTH OR NORTHEAST,
ALTHOUGHT NOT VERY STRONG.

.DISCUSSION...
MOST MODELS INDICATE NOW THAT SHOWERS AND THUNDERSTORMS WILL
CONTINUE TO FORM IN SOUTHERN KANSAS AND NORTHERN OKLAHOMA THIS
AFTERNOON AND DRIFT SLOWLY SOUTHEAST. THE CYCLONIC CIRCULATION
OVER CENTRAL KANSAS IS EXPECTED TO SLOWLY EVOLVE INTO A WEAK OPEN
WAVE AND DRIFT ACROSS OKLAHOMA DURING THE FIRST HALF OF SUNDAY. A
WEAK SURFACE TROUGH WILL BE ASSOCIATED AND TURN WINDS TO THE
NORTH. BECAUSE THIS SYSTEM WILL MOVE SLOWLY AND BECAUSE THE
ATMOSPHERE IS VERY MOIST, HEAVY RAINFALL IS EXPECTED IN SOME PARTS
OF NORTHERN OKLAHOMA. RAIN MAY BECOME MORE IN THE FORM OF SHOWERS
WITH THUNDERSTORMS ACROSS CENTRAL AND SOUTHEAST OKLAHOAM LATE
TODAY AND EARLY SUNDAY. ONCE THIS SYSTEM EXITS SOUTHEAST OKLAHOMA
LATE SUNDAY, CHANCES FOR RAIN RETURN TO NEAR ZERO FOR THE REST OF
THE HOT AND HUMID WEEK. AN UPPER RIDGE IS EPXECTED TO BUILD
NORTHWEST OF OKLAHOMA GIVING LITTLE DAY-TO-DAY CHANGE.
