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.

What forecasters said that day

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

NWS Indianapolis, IN wrote its last area forecast discussion before this severe thunderstorm warning went out at Jun 26, 2:53 PM EDT, 4 minutes earlier.

Area forecast discussion, Jun 26, 2:53 PM EDT, 4 minutes before

AREA FORECAST DISCUSSION
NATIONAL WEATHER SERVICE INDIANAPOLIS IN
253 PM EDT WED JUN 26 2013

.UPDATE...
THE SYNOPSIS...NEAR TERM AND SHORT TERM SECTIONS HAVE BEEN UPDATED BELOW

&&

.SYNOPSIS...
ISSUED AT 254 PM EDT WED JUN 26 2013

AN EXTREMELY LARGE AND SLOW MOVING LOW PRESSURE WILL DOMINATE
INDIANA WEATHER INTO EARLY NEXT WEEK. THIS SYSTEM SHOULD MOSTLY
REMAIN FROM THE WESTERN GULF COAST...ACROSS THE HOOSIER STATE...TO
NEW ENGLAND. AS LONG AS IT IS AROUND THUNDERSTORMS ARE POSSIBLE.

TOWARD THE MIDDLE OF NEXT WEEK HIGH PRESSURE SHOULD PUSH INTO
INDIANA FROM THE SOUTHEAST.

&&

.NEAR TERM /TONIGHT/...

ISSUED AT 254 PM EDT WED JUN 26 2013

ROUNDS OF PRECIPITATION TONIGHT AS SATELLITE SHOWS SHORT WAVES
CONTINUING TO HEAD IN FROM NORTHWEST. ALSO UNSTABLE AIR OVER
AREA. REPORTS OF EXTREMELY HEAVY RAIN IN STORMS ALREADY OVER CWA.
WILL CONTINUE FLASH FLOOD WATCH CONSIDERING THIS.

OTRW...NOT A HIGH CONFIDENCE FORECAST SINCE SITUATION WILL BE
HEAVILY INFLUENCED BY MESOSCALE FACTORS. TRIED TO TACKLE THIS BY
USING CONSENSUS OF MAV AND MET TO HOPEFULLY CAPTURE STRENGTHS OF
BOTH.

&&

.SHORT TERM /THURSDAY THROUGH SATURDAY/...

ISSUED AT 254 PM EDT WED JUN 26 2013

DIFFICULT FORECAST. GFS AND NAM BROADLY AGREE SHORT WAVES MOVING
ACROSS CWA WHILE WARM HUMID AIR PERSISTS. MODELS DIFFER IN DETAILS
WHICH WILL MAKE A BIG DIFFERENCE IN HOW CONVECTION DEVELOPS. THIS IN
TURN WILL AFFECT EVERYTHING ELSE. THINK CONSENSUS OF MET AND MAV
BEST FOR NOW TO CAPTURE STRENGTH OF BOTH.

IN OTHER WORDS...PARTLY CLOUDY TO MOSTLY CLOUDY WITH A PERSISTENT
CHANCE OF THUNDER. TEMPS A BIT BELOW NORMAL DAYS AND ABOVE NORMAL
NIGHTS WITH CLOUDS.

&&

.LONG TERM /SATURDAY NIGHT THROUGH WEDNESDAY/...
ISSUED AT 240 PM EDT WED JUN 26 2013

MODEL ENSEMBLES INDICATE A STRONG UPPER TROUGH ACROSS THE EASTERN
GREAT LAKES AND OUR REGION EARLY ON IN THE LONG TERM. OVER TIME
MODELS DEVELOP THIS INTO A CLOSED UPPER LOW ACROSS OUR AREA AND
RETROGRADE IT INTO THE WESTERN GREAT LAKES AND UPPER MISSISSIPPI
VALLEY BY DAY 7.  EVEN THOUGH THEY AGREE ON THE OVERALL PATTERN THERE
IS SOME DISAGREEMENT ON HOW MUCH PRECIP WILL REMAIN.  THE CANADIAN
IS MOSTLY DRY AFTER SUNDAY...WHILE THE EURO AND GFS INDICATE AT
LEAST CHANCE POPS DURING THE DAY.

FOR NOW WILL INDICATE CHANCE POPS DURING THE DAY AND SLIGHT CHANCE POPS
AT NIGHT.  WENT CLOSE TO ALL BLEND TEMPERATURES TEMPERATURES EARLY ON.
TEMPERATURES MAY WARM UP SLIGHTLY AS THE UPPER LOW WEAKENS AND
RETROGRADES A LITTLE ON DAY 6 AND 7.  WENT SLIGHTLY ABOVE ALL BLEND
HIGHS THOSE PERIODS.  OTHERWISE...NO SIGNIFICANT CHANGES MADE.

&&

.AVIATION /DISCUSSION FOR THE 26/18Z TAF ISSUANCE/...
ISSUED AT 100 PM EDT WED JUN 26 2013

AN UPPER LEVEL WEATHER DISTURBANCE OVER NORTH CENTRAL ILLINOIS WILL
BE MOVE INTO CENTRAL INDIANA BY THIS EVENING.  A CLUSTER OF
THUNDERSTORMS JUST WEST OF KHUF WILL MOVE INTO WEST CENTRAL INDIANA
NEAR OR SHORTLY AFTER THE START OF THE FORECAST PERIOD AND WITH
DAYTIME HEATING EXPECT SCATTERED THUNDERSTORMS TO DEVELOP ELSEWHERE.
BEST TIMING OF THUNDERSTORMS WILL BE THIS AFTERNOON AT KHUF AND
LATE AFTERNOON AND EARLY EVENING ELSEWHERE.  WILL MENTION VCTS
MOST AREAS THROUGH LATE EVENING.  OUTSIDE OF THUNDERSTORMS MOSTLY
VFR CEILINGS WILL BE THE RULE THIS AFTERNOON AND EVENING.

PRECIPITATION WILL DIMINISH OVERNIGHT AS UPPER DISTURBANCE MOVES ON
TO THE EAST SOUTHEAST.  MODEL SOUNDINGS INDICATE AREAS OF MVFR
CEILINGS AND FOG WILL BE THE RULE LATE TONIGHT AS GROUND WILL BE WET.
A WEAK COLD FRONT WILL MOVE THROUGH LATE TONIGHT.

ON THURSDAY EXPECT MOSTLY VFR CEILINGS AFTER MID MORNING. A FEW
STORMS MAY REDEVELOP BY MIDDAY THURSDAY. HOWEVER COVERAGE AND CHANCE
OF OCCURRENCE AT TAF SITE WILL BE MUCH LESS THAN TODAY.  WILL NOT
MENTION IN TAFS AT THIS TIME.

WINDS WILL BE SOUTHWEST UP TO 10 KNOTS THIS AFTERNOON BECOMING
LIGHT WEST TONIGHT AND NORTHWEST UP TO 10 KNOTS BY LATE THURSDAY
MORNING.
