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 BISMARCK ND
707 PM CDT FRI AUG 30 2013

.UPDATE...
ISSUED AT 707 PM CDT FRI AUG 30 2013

VISIBLE SATELLITE IMAGERY NICELY DEPICTS THE LOCATION OF A PRE-
FRONTAL TROUGH THAT IS SERVING AS A FOCUS FOR SEVERE CONVECTION.
THIS SURFACE BOUNDARY WILL CONTINUE TO PUSH EAST THROUGH THE
OVERNIGHT HOURS.

BEHIND THE FRONT...MORE STABLE AIR EXISTS OVER EXTREME WESTERN
NORTH DAKOTA. NOT EXPECTING ANY CONVECTION ALONG AND WEST OF
HIGHWAY 85 TONIGHT. AS A RESULT...CANCELLED THE SEVERE
THUNDERSTORM WATCH FOR AREAS ALONG AND WEST OF HIGHWAY 85. A
SEVERE THUNDERSTORM COULD IMPACT THE EXTREME SOUTHWESTERN PORTION
OF BOWMAN COUNTY BETWEEN 9 PM MDT AND 10 PM MDT. HOWEVER...NOT
REAL CONFIDENT THE STORM WILL HOLD TOGETHER FOR THAT LONG. STILL
CANCELLED THE WATCH FOR BOWMAN COUNTY...BUT MENTIONED THE THREAT
IN THE HWO. THE UPDATED PRODUCTS HAVE BEEN SENT.

UPDATE ISSUED AT 432 PM CDT FRI AUG 30 2013

&&

.SHORT TERM...(THIS EVENING THROUGH SATURDAY)

ISSUED AT 232 PM CDT FRI AUG 30 2013

THE HIGHLIGHT OF THE SHORT TERM IS SEVERE CONVECTIVE DEVELOPMENT
LATE THIS AFTERNOON AND INTO THE EVENING.

REALLY NOT MUCH CHANGE IN THINKING IN REGARDS TO THE EVOLUTION AND
ASSOCIATED THREATS WITH THE ANTICIPATED CONVECTION. THE 18 UTC
HRRR/RAP CONTINUE THE TRENDS OF INITIATING CONVECTION ALONG A
PRE-FRONTAL TROUGH FROM HETTINGER THROUGH SHERWOOD FROM BETWEEN
20-22 UTC. THIS IS IN LINE WITH THE 12 UTC NAM/GFS/GEM/WRF AND THE
00 UTC WRF AND SPC SSEO. -10 TO -30 HAIL CAPE VALUES OF 700-900 J/KG
WITH DEEP LAYER SHEAR OF 40-50 KTS SUGGESTS LARGE HAIL WILL BE A
PRIMARY THREAT...ALONG WITH DAMAGING WINDS WITH DOWNDRAFT CAPE
VALUES AOA 1000 J/KG. LOCALLY HEAVY RAINFALL IS ALSO EXPECTED WITH
PWATS NEAR 1.50 INCHES. WHILE THE TORNADIC THREAT IS LOW...ANY
SUPERCELLS THAT CAN INTERACT WITH THE TROUGH MAY PRESENT A LOCALIZED
THREAT FOR TORNADOES. STORMS ARE EXPECTED TO BE FOCUSED EAST OF
HIGHWAY 83 POST 00 UTC...SUSTAINED BY A 25 KT LOW LEVEL JET.

FOR SATURDAY...A COOLER AND NOTABLY DRIER DAY IS FORECAST ACROSS THE
AREA IN THE WAKE OF A COLD FRONT THAT WILL ENTER NORTHWEST NORTH
DAKOTA TONIGHT AND CLEAR THE SOUTHEAST PORTIONS OF THE CWA BY 18
UTC. BREEZY NORTHWEST WINDS AND DEWPOINTS DROPPING INTO THE 40S WILL
LEAD TO HIGH FIRE DANGER ACROSS THE SOUTHWEST...HOWEVER...CRITICAL

.LONG TERM...(SATURDAY NIGHT THROUGH FRIDAY)

ISSUED AT 232 PM CDT FRI AUG 30 2013

ACROSS LAMOURE AND DICKEY COUNTIES IN THE EVENING...DRY ALL AREAS
AFTER 06Z.

DRY...SUNNY...AND MUCH COOLER (HIGHS 70-80) FOR SUNDAY AS CANADIAN
HIGH PRESSURE BUILDS ACROSS THE NORTHERN PLAINS.
