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

Rapid City, SD (KRAP), launched 00:00Z, 0.7 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.

AREA FORECAST DISCUSSION
NATIONAL WEATHER SERVICE CHEYENNE WY
536 PM MDT MON AUG 12 2013

.SHORT TERM...(THIS EVENING THROUGH WEDNESDAY)
ISSUED AT 330 PM MDT MON AUG 12 2013

AT LEAST A SCATTERED COVERAGE OF SHOWERS AND STORMS WAS OVER
THE WYOMING PART OF THE CWA EARLY THIS AFTERNOON. THE ACTIVITY
SHOULD GRADUALLY DECREASE AFTER THE LATE EVENING. THE STORMS
WILL CONTINUE TO PRODUCE A PERIOD OF HEAVY RAIN...SMALL HAIL AND
BRIEF WIND GUSTS TO 50 MPH DURING THAT TIME AS THEY MOVE SLOWLY
EAST. AREAS OF LOW CLOUDS AND FOG MAY DEVELOP AFTER 06Z OVER
THE PANHANDLE AND NEARBY PARTS OF SOUTHEAST WYOMING AND THEN
PERSIST THROUGH MID MORNING TUESDAY. THE CLOUDS AND FOG MAY BE
HINDERED BY THE ONGOING SHOWERS AND STORMS OVER THE AREA TONIGHT.

SYNOPTIC PATTERN WILL REMAIN SIMILAR OVER THE REGION THROUGH
WEDNESDAY. THE MID AND UPPER LEVEL RIDGE WILL BUILD SLOWLY JUST
UPSTREAM OF THE CWA. THE SURFACE BOUNDARY CURRENTLY ALONG THE
CONTINENTAL DIVIDE WILL MOVE SLOWLY EAST THROUGH WEDNESDAY AS
THE LARGE SURFACE HIGH MOVES FURTHER SOUTHEAST AND ONTO THE
PLAINS. PRECIPITABLE WATER VALUES WILL REMAIN NEAR AN INCH OVER
THE PANHANDLE THROUGH WEDNESDAY AND INSTABILITY WILL BE PRESENT
ESPECIALLY DURING THE DAYTIME HOURS. A SHORTWAVE TROUGH WAS
LIFTING INTO NORTHERN UTAH AND WEST CENTRAL COLORADO EARLY THIS
AFTERNOON. THAT FEATURE WILL MOVE SLOWLY NORTHEAST AND THEN EAST
THROUGH TUESDAY. THE LIFT AND MOISTURE SHOULD BE ENOUGH TO
PRODUCE FAIRLY WIDESPREAD SHOWERS AND STORMS OVER THE CWA THROUGH
THE EVENING AND THEN AGAIN TUESDAY AFTERNOON AND EVENING. SOME
SHOWERS AND STORMS WILL LINGER OVERNIGHT AND THROUGH TUESDAY
MORNING. PRECIPITABLE WATER VALUES AND THE SHORTWAVE TROUGH TIMING
MAY YIELD HEAVY RAIN AND MINOR FLOODING TUESDAY AFTERNOON AND
EVENING. HOWEVER...SMALL HAIL AND STRONG WIND GUSTS WILL CONTINUE
TO BE POSSIBLE.

PRECIPITABLE WATER VALUES WILL DECREASE OVER THE AREA ON WEDNESDAY
AND SO SHOWER AND THUNDERSTORM COVERAGE MAY BE LESS THAN THAT OF
TODAY AND TUESDAY. TEMPERATURES WILL BE AT OR JUST BELOW NORMAL
THROUGH WEDNESDAY.

.LONG TERM...(WEDNESDAY NIGHT THROUGH SUNDAY)
ISSUED AT 330 PM MDT MON AUG 12 2013

MOISTURE DIMINISHES OVER THE CWA ON THURSDAY AS A DRYING TREND
BEGINS TO IMPACT THE AREA. THIS DRYING TREND WILL CONTINUE THROUGH
MUCH OF THE WEEKEND AS A RIDGE AXIS MOVES OVER THE CWA ON SATURDAY
AND THEN IS EAST OF THE REGION BY SUNDAY. THIS WILL REDUCE PRECIP
CHANCES FOR THE PERIOD AS PW VALUES DROP TO AROUND 0.5-0.75 INCHES.
CHANCES FOR PRECIP WILL RETURN BY LATE SUNDAY AS A SHORTWAVE MOVES
OVER WYOMING AND MIDLEVEL MOISTURE IN SOUTHWESTERLY FLOW INCREASES.
TEMPERATURES WILL BE ABOVE NORMAL ESPECIALLY DURING THE WEEKEND WITH
THE LIMITED CLOUD COVER AND WARM 700MB TEMPS AROUND 16-18C.  THE
WARM AND DRY CONDITIONS WILL LIKELY CAUSE RH VALUES TO FALL BELOW
CRITICAL LEVELS TO THE WEST OF THE LARAMIE RANGE...HOWEVER WINDS ARE
RATHER LIGHT FOR FIRE WEATHER CONCERNS.

&&

.AVIATION...(FOR THE 00Z TAFS THROUGH 00Z TUESDAY AFTERNOON)
ISSUED AT 530 PM MDT MON AUG 12 2013

THROUGH 03Z...ISOLATED THUNDERSTORMS ALONG AND EAST OF A LUSK TO
CHEYENNE LINE WITH ISOLATED SHOWERS ELSEWHERE. THUNDERSTORMS
PRODUCING ERRATIC WIND GUSTS TO 40 MPH AND TURBULENCE. FROM 10Z TO
16Z...AREAS OF LOW CLOUDS AND FOG AT NEBRASKA AERODROMES WITH
LOCALIZED IFR AND MVFR...VFR ELSEWHERE. AFTER 20Z TUESDAY...
SCATTERED TO NUMEROUS SHOWERS AND THUNDERSTORMS PRODUCING
LOCALIZED MVFR.

&&

.FIRE WEATHER...
ISSUED AT 330 PM MDT MON AUG 12 2013

FIRE WEATHER CONCERNS WILL BE MINIMAL THROUGH WEDNESDAY. MIDLEVEL
MOISTURE WILL CAUSE SCATTERED SHOWERS AND THUNDERSTORMS EACH
AFTERNOON AND EVENING THROUGH WEDNESDAY. SOME OF THE STORMS WILL
PRODUCE HEAVY RAINFALL. A DRYING TREND WILL START ON THURSDAY AND
CONTINUE THROUGH THE WEEKEND AS A RIDGE OF HIGH PRESSURE MOVES
OVER THE REGION. MINIMUM AFTERNOON HUMIDITIES WILL FALL TO AROUND
10-15 PERCENT OVER THIS PERIOD TO THE WEST OF THE LARAMIE
RANGE...ALTHOUGH WINDS LOOK LIGHT FOR MUCH FIRE WEATHER CONCERNS
AT THIS POINT.
