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.

Area forecast discussion, Jul 25, 6:25 PM CDT, 1 hour 19 minutes before

AREA FORECAST DISCUSSION
NATIONAL WEATHER SERVICE DODGE CITY KS
625 PM CDT THU JUL 25 2013

...UPDATED AVIATION DISCUSSION...

.SYNOPSIS...
ISSUED AT 327 PM CDT THU JUL 25 2013

THE 12Z UPPER AIR ANALYSIS DEPICTED A 500 MILLIBAR SHORTWAVE AND
THERMAL TROUGH OVER THE EASTERN SLOPES OF THE ROCKIES IN NORTHERN
COLORADO AND WYOMING. WATER VAPOR LOOPS INDICATE THIS SYSTEM MOVING
OUT OVER THE HIGH PLAINS THIS AFTERNOON. AT THE SURFACE, LOW
PRESSURE WAS LOCATED OVER EAST CENTRAL COLORADO. A WARM FRONT
EXTENDED EAST INTO KANSAS SOUTH OF GOODLAND, HAYS AND GREAT BEND. A
COOL FRONT EXTENDED WESTWARD FROM THE LOW INTO THE FRONT RANGE. THE
REGIONAL RADAR MOSAIC SHOWS A CONTINUING AREA OF WARM ADVECTION
SHOWERS GRADUALLY PROPAGATING EAST THROUGH CENTRAL KANSAS.
THUNDERSTORMS WERE STARTING TO DEVELOP ALONG THE WARM FRONT IN
CENTRAL KANSAS. OTHER THUNDERSTORMS WERE NOW BEGINNING TO SHOW UP IN
NORTHWEST KANSAS AND OVER FAR SOUTHEAST COLORADO IN AN AREA OF LOW
LEVEL CONVERGENCE.

&&

.SHORT TERM...(THIS EVENING THROUGH FRIDAY)
ISSUED AT 327 PM CDT THU JUL 25 2013

FOR THIS EVENING, THE SHORTWAVE TROUGH CONTINUES SOUTHEAST ACROSS
THE CENTRAL HIGH PLAINS. THE NAM SHOWS THE SURFACE LOW TRACKING OUT
ACROSS WESTERN KANSAS. EXPECT THUNDERSTORMS TO CONTINUE TO DEVELOP
AND BECOME MORE NUMEROUS THROUGH THE LATE AFTERNOON AND EARLY
EVENING HOURS . THE LATEST RUNS OF THE HIGH-RES RAPID REFRESH SHOW
TWO DISTINCT AREAS OF THUNDERSTORMS. THE SOUTHEAST COLORADO
THUNDERSTORMS CONTINUE TO DEVELOP INTO WESTERN KANSAS THROUGH THE
LATE AFTERNOON. THE MODEL ALSO SHOWS THUNDERSTORMS OVER NORTHWEST
KANSAS BECOMING MORE NUMEROUS AND ALSO SPREADING SOUTHEASTWARD
THROUGH THE EVENING HOURS. WILL MAINTAIN THE LIKELY POPS THAT ARE
CURRENTLY IN THE FORECAST AND SHIFT THE AREA OF HIGHEST POPS
SOUTHEASTWARD AS THE NIGHT GOES ON.

THUNDERSTORMS SHOULD BE MOVING OUT OF SOUTH CENTRAL KANSAS BY 12Z
SATURDAY. AS THE FRONT MOVES SOUTHWARD LATER TONIGHT, THERE COULD BE
AREAS OF LOW STRATUS DEVELOPING ALONG WITH SOME AREAS OF MIST OR
FOG. WINDS WILL BE INCREASING FROM THE NORTH BY FRIDAY MORNING AND
WILL GRADUALLY COME AROUND TO THE NORTHEAST DURING THE DAY AS THE
SURFACE HIGH PRESSURE RIDGE BUILDS SOUTHWARD INTO EASTERN KANSAS.

.LONG TERM...(FRIDAY NIGHT THROUGH THURSDAY)
ISSUED AT 248 PM CDT THU JUL 25 2013

FRIDAY NIGHT/SATURDAY:

SURFACE WINDS WILL EVENTUALLY VEER FROM NORTHEASTERLY TO SOUTHERLY THROUGH
OVERNIGHT FRIDAY AS HIGH PRESSURE SHIFTS OFF TO THE EAST IN THE WAKE
OF THE DEPARTING SYNOPTIC TROF. OVERNIGHT LOWS WILL BE IN THE LOWER
60S DEG F AS A DRIER AIR MASS ADVECTS IN. ON SATURDAY, UPSLOPE FLOW
ACROSS THE HIGH PLAINS MAY LEAD TO LATE AFTERNOON CONVECTION. HAVE GONE
WITH SLIGHTLY COOLER MAXIMUMS AS THE ECMWF SHOWS HIGHER RH'S IN THE
850-700 HPA LAYER. MAXIMUMS WILL BE THE COOLEST NEAR HAYS AND THE WARMEST
NEAR ELKHART (VALUES 82-90 DEG F). SEVERE WEATHER CANNOT BE RULED OUT
EITHER AS AN 80 KT 250 HPA JET MOVES ACROSS THE REGION BY EVENING.

SUNDAY:

LOW LEVEL WARM AIR ADVECTION/THETA-E ADVECTION WILL LEAD TO ANOTHER
CONVECTIVE DAY ACROSS SOUTHWEST KANSAS SUNDAY. HAVE THE HIGHEST PRECIPITATION
PROBABILITIES UP NORTH CLOSER TO THE NOSE OF THE 850 HPA THETA-E AXIS
AND BAROCLINIC ZONE. MAXIMUMS WILL BE IN THE MID 80S DEG F AS THE LOW
LEVEL WARM PLUME ADVECTS FARTHER EAST.

MONDAY AND BEYOND:

WESTERLY FLOW WILL CONTINUE ACROSS THE CENTRAL AND NORTHERN PLAINS THROUGH
THE REST OF THE PERIOD. THIS AND CONTINUED UPSLOPE FLOW WILL SET THE
STAGE FOR POTENTIAL MCS DEVELOPMENT. IT IS DIFFICULT TO PINPOINT THUNDERSTORM
PLACEMENT AND TIMING THIS FAR OUT, SO WILL CONTINUE WITH THE ALLBLEND
PRECIPITATION PROBABILITIES FOR NOW. HIGHS WILL BE AROUND 90 DEG F WITH
LOWS AROUND 70 DEG F ON AVERAGE.

&&

.AVIATION...(FOR THE 00Z TAFS THROUGH 00Z FRIDAY EVENING)
ISSUED AT 619 PM CDT THU JUL 25 2013

SCATTERED THUNDERSTORMS WILL BE POSSIBLE AHEAD OF AN UPPER LEVEL
TROUGH AS IT CROSSES WESTERN KANSAS EARLY TONIGHT. BASED ON TIMING
OF THE UPPER TROUGH, HRRR, 18Z NAM/BUFR SOUNDINGS, AND RADAR
TRENDS THE BETTER CHANCES FOR CONVECTION AT HAYS WILL BE POSSIBLE
FROM 02Z UNTIL 05Z. AT DDC AND GCK THE CONVECTION CHANCES APPEAR
POSSIBLE THROUGH MIDNIGHT, HOWEVER THE LATEST RADAR TRENDS
SUGGESTED THIS CONVECTION WILL MOVE NORTHEAST AND SOUTH OF THE
AIRPORTS SO WILL CARRY ONLY VCTS FOR SEVERAL HOURS EARLY TONIGHT
AT DDC AND GCK. CLOUD BASES WERE ABOVE 3000FT SO VFR CONDITIONS
ARE EXPECTED. AS THIS UPPER WAVE/CONVECTION MOVES EAST OF THE AREA
THE SURFACE WINDS WILL BECOME NORTHEAST AND DECREASE TO 10KTS OR
LESS. LOW LEVELS WILL SATURATE TOWARDS DAYBREAK SO SOME EARLY
MORNING STATUS AND FOG WILL BE POSSIBLE. AT THIS TIME HAVE DECIDE
TO KEEP CIGS AND VSBYS AT DDC AND GCK IN THE MVFR CATAGORY.
