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, Apr 11, 3:48 PM EDT, 4 hours 23 minutes before

AREA FORECAST DISCUSSION
NATIONAL WEATHER SERVICE PEACHTREE CITY GA
348 PM EDT THU APR 11 2013

.SHORT TERM /TONIGHT THROUGH FRIDAY/...
COLD FRONT CURRENTLY ACROSS EASTERN MISSISSIPPI AND NORTHWEST
ALABAMA...WITH A WARM FRONT STRETCHING FROM THE OHIO VALLEY TO THE
DELMARVA PENINSULA. FFC FORECAST AREA IS WELL WITHIN THE WARM SECTOR
THIS AFTERNOON. SHOWERS AND THUNDERSTORMS HAVE STARTED TO INCREASE
IN COVERAGE SINCE THE EARLY AFTERNOON. 18Z SOUNDING SHOWS A STRONG
CAP AROUND 675MB. THE CAP SHOULD ERODE IN THE NEXT FEW HOURS...WITH
STORM INTENSITY INCREASING.

SQUALL LINE CONTINUES TO STRENGTHEN AHEAD OF THE COLD FRONT IN
EASTERN MS/NW ALABAMA AS A STRONG SW/500MB TROUGH SWINGS OUT OF THE
LOWER MISSISSIPPI RIVER VALLEY. THIS LINE OF SHOWERS AND
THUNDERSTORMS WILL MOVE EASTWARD AND INTO THE CWFA DURING THE
EVENING...AND CONTINUE THROUGH THE CWFA OVERNIGHT AND INTO EARLY
FRIDAY MORNING. NAM AND GFS PROG SEVERAL HUNDRED TO AROUND A 1000
J/KG OF CAPE WELL INTO THE OVERNIGHT HOURS. IN ADDITION...SHEAR WILL
INCREASE AS THE FRONTAL BOUNDARY APPROACHES AS WILL LIFT WHEN THE
SHORTWAVE MOVES THROUGH. 18Z SOUNDING ALSO SHOWS A NICE INVERTED V
STRUCTURE...INDICATIVE OF STRONG/DAMAGING WIND GUSTS. THE SQUALL
LINE ALREADY HAS A HISTORY OF PRODUCING TORNADOES...AND WITH THE
SHEAR INCREASING...THE POTENTIAL TORNADOES TO DEVELOP WILL CONTINUE
UNTIL THE FRONT PASSES.

STORMS WILL LINGER INTO THE OVERNIGHT HOURS/EARLY FRIDAY UNTIL THE
FRONT EXITS THE CWFA. RAPID CLEARING IS EXPECTED BEHIND THE
BOUNDARY. TOOK A BLEND FOR TEMPS.

NLISTEMAA

.LONG TERM /FRIDAY NIGHT THROUGH THURSDAY/...
NO MAJOR CHANGES MADE TO THE EXTENDED FORECAST. INCREASED POPS A
BIT FOR SUN AS NEXT SHORTWAVE MOVES IN BUT LEFT THE LOCATION OF
THE EXPECTED PRECIP AS IS. CLEARING CONDITIONS ARE STILL EXPECTED
ON FRIDAY AS HIGH PRESSURE SETTLES OVER THE STATE BEHIND THE
DEPARTING COLD FRONT. THE RIDGE WILL DOMINATE THROUGH EARLY
SUNDAY...THEN THE SURFACE RIDGE SLIPS EAST AND ESTABLISHES A
WARM...MOIST SOUTHERLY WIND FLOW BY SUNDAY AFTERNOON. AT THIS
SAME TIME...THE GFS AND ECMWF SHOW AN UPPER DISTURBANCE
APPROACHING FROM THE SOUTHWEST THAT SPARKS SHOWERS AND POSSIBLY A
FEW THUNDERSTORMS ALONG THE GULF COAST THAT INITIALLY SPREAD INTO
THE SOUTHERN THIRD OF THE FORECAST AREA...BEFORE SPREADING OVER
THE REST OF THE AREA BY SUNDAY NIGHT. MODELS SHOW THIS ACTIVE
PATTERN CONTINUING AS A SERIES OF SUBTLE DISTURBANCES INTERACT
WITH THE WARM MOIST AND UNSTABLE AIR MASS. THIS WILL PRODUCE
SCATTERED SHOWERS AND POSSIBLY A FEW THUNDERSTORMS ON
MONDAY...TUESDAY AND AGAIN ON WEDNESDAY...MAINLY DURING DAYTIME
HEATING. HOWEVER...WILL HOLD ONTO A SLIGHT CHANCE OF SHOWERS EACH
NIGHT.

.AVIATION...
18Z UPDATE...
SCATTERED CONVECTION CONTINUES TO BREAK OUT THIS AFTERNOON AHEAD
OF AN APPROACHING COLD FRONT. FROPA WILL OCCUR OVERNIGHT...BRINGING
ADDITIONAL STORMS TO THE REGION. INSTABILITY DOESN'T DECREASE MUCH
WITH SUNSET...AND SHEAR WILL INCREASE ALONG THE FRONT.
THUNDERSTORMS WILL CONTINUE INTO THE OVERNIGHT HOURS...ALONG WITH
THE POTENTIAL FOR LOCALLY HEAVY RAINFALL. A WIND SHIFT TO THE W
SHOULD OCCUR BETWEEN 07Z AND 09Z WITH A SWITCH TO THE NW AROUND
12Z...ALONG WITH THE SCT OUT OF LL CLOUDS.
