The Wichita radar (KICT), 42 km from the middle of the area, began a volume at 02:44 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 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
NATIONAL WEATHER SERVICE WICHITA KS
710 PM CDT MON AUG 5 2013

.MESOSCALE DISCUSSION...
ISSUED AT 710 PM CDT MON AUG 5 2013

WATCHING SOUTHEASTWARD MOVING STORMS NORTHEAST OF DDC AND THOSE
TRACKING/DEVELOPING NORTHEAST ALONG THE OKLAHOMA BORDER. AT SOME
POINT SEVERAL CELL MERGERS WILL OCCUR...PERHAPS JUST WEST OF THE

.SHORT TERM...(THIS EVENING THROUGH THURSDAY)
ISSUED AT 221 PM CDT MON AUG 5 2013

SCATTERED THUNDERSTORMS WILL INITIATE THIS PM/EVE NEAR/ALONG A W-NW
TO E-SE ORIENTED REMNANT FRONTAL BOUNDARY FROM EASTERN CO ACROSS

SUBTROPICAL MOISTURE WILL CONTINUE ALONG/NORTH OF THIS FRONT
SUPPORTING ADDITIONAL SHOWER/THUNDERSTORM CHANCES. THE NEXT CHANCE

WED NIGHT INTO THURSDAY. THIS COULD CAUSE ADDITIONAL FLOODING
CONCERNS.
