The radar

The Grand Island radar (KUEX), 126 km from the middle of the area, began a volume at 01:50 UTC, the scan nearest the moment this went out.

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 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.

The local office's own words before this tornado warning went out, as it sent them, from the Iowa Environmental Mesonet's archive of National Weather Service text.

NWS Hastings, NE wrote its last area forecast discussion before this tornado warning went out at Jul 9, 3:08 PM CDT, 5 hours 42 minutes earlier.

Area forecast discussion, Jul 9, 3:08 PM CDT, 5 hours 42 minutes before

AREA FORECAST DISCUSSION
NATIONAL WEATHER SERVICE HASTINGS NE
308 PM CDT TUE JUL 9 2013

.SHORT TERM...(THIS EVENING THROUGH WEDNESDAY)
ISSUED AT 306 PM CDT TUE JUL 9 2013

SORT OF ACTIVE 24 HOURS WITH POTENTIAL FOR STORMS LATE
THIS AFTERNOON/EVENING...AND THEN COOLER WEATHER WEDNESDAY.

THE HEAT ADVISORY WILL CONTINUE DESPITE PRESENCE OF CLOUDS
ACROSS MUCH OF NORTHERN KANSAS TODAY. THERE IS STILL SOME
POSSIBILITY OF REACHING 105 DEGREE APPARENT TEMPERATURES
WITH VERY LITTLE VENTILATION (I.E., WIND). IF THUNDERSTORMS
DEVELOP EXTENSIVELY ACROSS NORTH CENTRAL KANSAS...THE ADVISORY
MAY BE LIFTED EARLY.

SPEAKING OF THUNDERSTORMS...INITIAL WEAK CONVECTIVE BOUNDARY
ACROSS NORTHERN KANSAS HAS BEEN THE FOCUS FOR SHOWERS AND ISOLATED
THUNDERSTORMS ALL DAY. IT SHOULD BE THE MAIN FOCUS LATE THIS
AFTERNOON AND EVENING...AND ITS JUST A MATTER OF TIME BEFORE WE
START TO SEE CONVECTIVE ACTIVITY INCREASE ALONG THE FRONT. FORECAST
REFLECTS ISOLATED/SCATTERED THUNDERSTORMS ACROSS THE SOUTHERN 1/2
OF THE AREA THROUGH EVENING HOURS IN ANTICIPATION OF THIS. MODERATE
INSTABILITY AND WEAK SHEAR FAVOR PULSE TYPE STORMS WITH HAIL AND
ISOLATED DOWNBURST TYPE WINDS THE MAIN ISSUE. RAINFALL IS PROBABLY
SPOTTY IN NATURE. A SECOND AREA OF CONCERN IS JUST TO THE WEST OF
THE FORECAST AREA...OR NORTH OF MCCOOK. STARTING TO SEE SOME
CONVERGENCE IN VICINITY OF MID LEVEL FRONTOGENESIS AREA NEARBY. IT
IS VERY UNSTABLE WITH LITTLE CAP. HAVE INCLUDED ISOLATED
THUNDERSTORMS FOR THE WESTERN AREAS FOR 3 TO 4 HOURS TO ACCOUNT FOR
THIS. A THIRD AREA OF CONCERN THIS EVENING IS IN THE NORTHERN HALF
OF THE FORECAST AREA...WHERE THE ACTUAL COLD FRONT IS PROGRESSING
TOWARD AT THIS TIME. CONVERGENCE ALONG THE BOUNDARY IS WEAK IN
GENERAL BUT THERE IS SOME INSTABILITY. ANYTHING WHICH DEVELOPS HERE
LOOKS VERY ISOLATED AND UNCERTAINTY LEADS ME TO LEAVE OUT OF THE
FORECAST AT THIS TIME.

THE MAIN WEATHER NEWS WEDNESDAY WILL BE A COOLER AIRMASS FOR
THE REGION AND WHAT ESSENTIALLY AMOUNTS TO A RETURN TO NEAR
NORMAL. THAT IS JUST ONE STORY. AS THE FRONT LINGERS TO THE
SOUTHWEST OF THE AREA...A WAVE WILL EMERGE FROM THE CENTRAL
ROCKIES AND WOULD MOST LIKELY RIDE SOUTHEAST ALONG THE FRONT.
WHILE THERE IS SOME MODEL AGREEMENT THIS WILL HAPPEN...TIMING
IS TOUGH. THE NAM BRINGS PRECIPITATION IN DURING THE DAY AND
IS MORE OF AN OUTLIER. OTHER MODELS HOLD OFF TIL EVENING AND
OVERNIGHT. INITIAL DEVELOPMENT WILL BE TO THE WEST AND THEN
SHOWER/STORMS WILL MIGRATE EAST AS THURSDAY EVENING APPROACHES.
CONTINUED WITH SMALL CHANCES FOR PRECIPITATION DURING THE DAY
FAVORING WESTERN AREAS. STILL SOME TOO MUCH UNCERTAINTY TO MAKE A
TOTAL LEAP OF FAITH AND INCREASE PRECIPITATION CHANCES DRAMATICALLY.

.LONG TERM...(WEDNESDAY NIGHT THROUGH TUESDAY)
ISSUED AT 306 PM CDT TUE JUL 9 2013

THE BIG PICTURE OVER THE LONG TERM ENTAILS A STUBBORN UPPER LEVEL
RIDGE ABOVE THE OUTLOOK AREA THAT DOES NOT BUDGE MUCH OVER THE
EXTENDED PERIOD. 500 MB ENSEMBLES ARE IN GOOD AGREEMENT WITH REGARDS
TO RIDGING OVER THE OUTLOOK AREA DURING THIS PERIOD...WHICH DOES NOT
APPEAR TO BRING MUCH RAINFALL TO THE AREA EXCEPT FOR SOME SPOTTY
CHANCES HERE AND THERE. HIGH TEMPERATURES WILL RANGE FROM NEAR
NORMAL TO ABOVE NORMAL AS 850 MB TEMPERATURES AVERAGE BETWEEN 24 AND
28 DEGREES CELSIUS THROUGH MUCH OF THE EXTENDED PERIOD DURING PEAK
HEATING. OVERALL...IT APPEARS WE ARE IN STORE FOR HOT AND DRY
CONDITIONS THROUGH THE BEGINNING OF NEXT WEEK.

WE BEGIN ON THURSDAY...WHEN HIGH TEMPERATURES WILL RANGE IN THE
UPPER 80S AND LOWER 90S...WHICH IS RIGHT AROUND NORMAL FOR THIS
TIME OF YEAR. HOWEVER...HIGH TEMPERATURES WILL RISE BACK ABOVE
NORMAL ON BOTH FRIDAY AND SATURDAY...WHEN MERCURY READINGS WILL
LIKELY RANGE BETWEEN 94 AND 104 DEGREES. HEAT ADVISORY CONDITIONS
MAY BECOME EVIDENT ON THESE DAYS...ESPECIALLY OUR SOUTHERN COUNTIES
WHERE HEAT INDICES WILL BE VERY CLOSE TO ADVISORY CRITERIA. THEN WE
WILL FINISH THE REST OF THE PERIOD OUT WITH HIGHS NEAR NORMAL.

AS FOR PRECIPITATION...THERE DOES NOT APPEAR TO BE MUCH CONFIDENCE
OVERALL FROM A GUIDANCE LEVERAGE POINT DUE TO THE LACK OF AGREEMENT
BETWEEN MODELS. WITH THAT BEING SAID...THERE SHOULD BE SOME LINGERING
SHOWER ACTIVITY ONGOING THROUGH THURSDAY FROM THE PREVIOUS NIGHT TO
BEGIN THE LONG TERM. THE NEXT BEST SHOT AT ANY RAIN WILL BE THIS
WEEKEND...WITH SHOWERS POTENTIALLY LINGERING INTO MONDAY.
OTHERWISE...WE ARE LOOKING AT RELATIVELY DRY CONDITIONS. ANY SHOWERS
THAT DO DEVELOP WILL HAVE THE POTENTIAL TO BECOME THUNDERSTORMS IN
SOME OF THE MORE SUITABLE ENVIRONMENTS...BUT NOTHING SCREAMS SEVERE
POTENTIAL AT THE MOMENT.

&&

.AVIATION...(FOR THE 18Z TAFS THROUGH 18Z WEDNESDAY AFTERNOON)
ISSUED AT 1252 PM CDT TUE JUL 9 2013

VFR CONDITIONS ARE FORECAST FOR KGRI AREA. INITIAL OUTFLOW TYPE
BOUNDARY HAS SETTLED SOUTH OF THE NEBRASKA BORDER AND THAT SHOULD
BE FOCUS AREA FOR MOST THUNDERSTORMS TONIGHT. NOT CONFIDENT ENOUGH
FOR ANY PRECIPITATION IN THE TAF. REINFORCING FRONT WILL HELP TO
SOLIDIFY A LIGHT NORTHERN/NORTHEAST BREEZE BY THIS EVENING WHICH
WILL CONTINUE INTO WEDNESDAY. SOME MID/HIGH CLOUDS MAY START TO
INFILTRATE FROM THE WEST BY MIDDAY WEDNESDAY AHEAD OF APPROACHING
MID-LEVEL WAVE.
