Local storm reports filed while the alert was in force, from inside its polygon or its counties.

Did it verify

Verified. The Iowa Environmental Mesonet's Cow matched one storm report to this flash flood warning; the first came 23 minutes after it went out.

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 nearest sounding before it

Cncnati-Daytn, OH (KILN), launched 12:00Z, 11.2 hours before the alert went out and 164 km from the middle of its area. This is the routine balloon launch nearest before it, the air the forecaster had in hand, not a measurement taken for the alert.

What forecasters said that day

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

NWS Louisville, KY wrote its last area forecast discussion before this flash flood warning went out at Jul 1, 7:07 PM EDT, 6 minutes earlier.

AREA FORECAST DISCUSSION
NATIONAL WEATHER SERVICE LOUISVILLE KY
707 PM EDT MON JUL 01 2013

...Updated Aviation Discussion...

.SHORT TERM (Tonight through Tuesday Night)...
Issued at 315 PM EDT Mon Jul 1 2013

Water vapor imagery suggests the upper-level low is centered
somewhere near Evansville. Inverted surface trough extends from the
Florida Panhandle into central and eastern Kentucky. Best coverage
of precip is over western Kentucky, while much of central Kentucky
is currently dry after being worked over by early morning
convection.

Expect additional destabilization the rest of the afternoon, so
pop-up storms will remain possible throughout the area. However, the
best coverage will continue to be south of the Parkways and
especially west of I-65.

Confidence is not too high regarding the specific timing, but expect
there will be waves of storms that lift north across Kentucky over
the next day and a half. As the upper low slowly retrogrades into
the Mississippi Valley, we will see a shift from synoptic forcing to
more diurnally driven storms. Coverage will still be fairly
extensive on Tuesday as we will be under a deep and moist SSW flow.

Will carry the highest chances in our western zones due to proximity
of the upper low, and in our eastern zones under the better
instability and slightly more dynamic SSW flow. In between will be an
alley of relatively lower POPs, but due to limited confidence the
range will be from 30% in the middle to 50-60% in the more favored
areas for precip. Pulse severe threat is greatest from south-central
Kentucky into the Bluegrass, with marginally severe hail and winds
possible with the strongest storms. Given recent heavy rainfall,
even sub-severe winds could be enough to knock down shallow-rooted
trees. Locally heavy rainfall will be a threat anywhere that is
impacted repeatedly. Temps will continue to run a few degrees below
normal for early July.

.LONG TERM (Wednesday through Monday)...
Issued at 301 PM EDT Mon Jul 1 2013

...Unsettled weather pattern shaping up for much of the Ohio Valley
through much of this week...

Wednesday through Friday...

The synoptic deterministic and ensemble model runs continue to be in
good agreement throughout this portion of the forecast period.  Very
amplified and locked upper level flow is expected across the CONUS
as dueling upper level highs reign at the coasts with an upper level
low over the western Ohio Valley and the Midwest.  Today's data is
still suggesting that the upper level low over the Ohio Valley will
slowly retrograde westward with time as the Bermuda high to our east
also shifts west.  With the upper level low influencing our weather,
we're likely to see a diurnal variation of clouds and convection
with the highest concentration in the afternoon/eve and smallest
concentration in the late overnight hours.

By Thursday, the upper level low is forecast to get pinched off and
lift northward into the fast westerly flow across the US/Canadian
border region.  As this occurs, the Bermuda high will also continue
to move westward and allow a deep, southwesterly transport of rich
gulf air into the region.  The best chances of rainfall on the 4th
of July look to favor eastern KY...east of I-65.  As the high builds
more west, the moisture axis will shift further west and much of the
area stands to see a good amount of convection Friday and into
Friday night.  Overall, it is not going to be a total washout
through the period.  However, rounds of convection will be moving
through the region and most locations will see rainfall.
Precipitable water values will be above climatological normals
through the period.  That, combined with a slower that normal
mid-level flow will allow these storms to produce locally heavy
rainfall during the period. Basin average rainfall could approach 2
inches during the Wed-Fri timeframe.

Temperatures through the period will be below normal due to the
clouds and precipitation within the region.  Generally went close to
the weighted model and consensus allBlend guidance here which
results in highs in the lower 80s and overnight lows around 70.

Friday Night through Monday...

Bermuda ridge axis is forecast to retrograde to the west with time
through the long term portion of the forecast period.  This will
result in a more warmer and more moist airmass to become common over
the Ohio Valley.  With the increasing heights, it appears that we
should see a general decrease in afternoon/evening convective
coverage.  However, still think scattered thunderstorms will be a
good bet during the afternoon and evening hours, especially in the
western sections of the forecast area.  These storms will have
plenty of moisture to work with and with slow mid-level flow,
locally heavy rainfall will be possible with any storm.  Another
round of 1 to 2 inches will be possible across many basins.  So the
5-7 day precipitation accumulations could be on the order of 2-4
inches with locally higher amounts.  Maximum temperatures look to
warm closer to climatology during this time frame with afternoon
readings topping out lower-middle 80s on Saturday with middle to
upper 80s by Sunday and into Monday.  Overnight lows still look to
be around 70 each night.

.AVIATION (00Z TAF Update)...
Issued at 705 PM EDT Mon Jul 1 2013

Convection has been fairly widespread over central Kentucky this
afternoon, but of the terminals only BWG was affected, and briefly
at that. This activity is diminishing as the environment has been
mostly worked over, but will still likely initialize SDF and LEX
with at least VCTS. Could still see T-storms directly affect LEX in
the first hour or two, but that will be a press time decision.
Otherwise prevailing VFR conditions this evening.

After midnight fog becomes a concern, especially in BWG where close
to 3 inches of rain fell earlier today. Model guidance is hitting
fog fairly hard, so will go with a few hours of IFR conditions in
fog and low stratus around daybreak. Even as visibilities improve,
fuel-alternate MVFR ceilings will hang around until nearly midday.

SDF will also be close enough to the upper low that MVFR stratus
will be a concern during the morning hours. However, without as much
low-level moisture as BWG, believe that will stay above
fuel-alternate thresholds. All sites improve to VFR by midday, with
winds picking up out of the south to 7-9 kt.
