What was reported inside it

Time	Report	Where	Remark

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

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.

What forecasters said that day

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 Memphis, TN wrote its last area forecast discussion before this tornado warning went out at Apr 27, 9:24 PM CDT, 56 minutes earlier.

Area forecast discussion, Apr 27, 9:24 PM CDT, 56 minutes before

AREA FORECAST DISCUSSION
NATIONAL WEATHER SERVICE MEMPHIS TN
924 PM CDT SAT APR 27 2013

.DISCUSSION...AS OF 01Z...A SURFACE LOW IS CENTERED NEAR MEMPHIS
WITH A TRAILING COLD FRONT EXTENDING SOUTHWEST ALONG THE
MISSISSIPPI RIVER AND DOWN ACROSS SOUTHERN ARKANSAS...AND NORTHERN
LOUISIANA. KNQA WSR-88D RADAR TRENDS OVER THE PAST COUPLE OF HOURS
HAVE SHOWN TWO DISTINCT AREAS OF SHOWERS AND THUNDERSTORMS...THE
FIRST CLUSTER EXTENDS NORTH OF A LINE FROM JUST EAST OF ARLINGTON TO
DECATURVILLE TENNESSEE AND SCATTERED THUNDERSTORMS EXTENDING ALONG
A COLD FRONT ACROSS NORTHWEST MISSISSIPPI.

LATEST MESOANALYSIS YIELDS SURFACE BASED CAPE VALUES BETWEEN
1000-1600 J/KG...STEEP MID LEVEL LAPSE RATES ALONG THE MISSISSIPPI
RIVER DELTA...AND 0-1 KM STORM RELATIVE HELICITIES BETWEEN 200-300
M2/S2. BASED ON THE LATEST TRENDS...THINK SEVERE
THUNDERSTORM/TORNADIC THREAT WILL CONTINUE ALONG THE TWO CLUSTERS
OF CONVECTION. WILL UPDATE FORECAST TO TRIM BACK SHOWER
THUNDERSTORM CHANCES AND GRADUALLY TRIM BACK THE TORNADO WATCH AS
THE CONVECTIVE ACTIVITY PROGRESSES EAST. WILL ALSO UPDATE ALL
OTHER ELEMENTS AS NEEDED.

UPDATED GRIDS WILL BE AVAILABLE SHORTLY.

UPDATE...
UPDATED TO ADD 00Z AVIATION DISCUSSION.

PREV DISCUSSION... /ISSUED 332 PM CDT SAT APR 27 2013/

DISCUSSION...19Z SURFACE ANALYSIS PLACES A SURFACE LOW JUST
SOUTHWEST OF HOT SPRINGS ARKANSAS WITH A WARM FRONT EXTENDING
FROM THE LOW THROUGH LITTLE ROCK...MEMPHIS...AND CORINTH
MISSISSIPPI. AS OF 2 PM CDT...TEMPERATURES HAVE RISEN INTO THE
UPPER 60S TO LOWER 70S ALONG AND JUST SOUTH OF THE WARM
FRONT...WITH MIDDLE 70S OCCURRING ACROSS AREAS ALONG AND SOUTH OF
A LINE FROM CLARKSDALE TO TUPELO MISSISSIPPI. NORTH OF THE WARM
FRONT...TEMPERATURES HAVE STRUGGLED TO RISE MUCH WITH
TEMPERATURES REMAINING FROM AROUND 60 NEAR THE MO/KY/AR BORDER AND
LOWER TO MIDDLE 60S DOWN TO WYNNE ARKANSAS...AND JACKSON/SAVANNAH
TENNESSEE. STRONG TO SEVERE THUNDERSTORM POTENTIAL REMAINS THE
PREDOMINANT FORECAST CHALLENGE IN THIS AFTERNOON/S FORECAST.

SHORT TERM...(TONIGHT THROUGH TUESDAY)...REGIONAL WSR-88D RADAR
TRENDS OVER THE PAST FEW HOURS HAVE SHOWN SCATTERED TO NUMEROUS
SHOWERS AND A FEW THUNDERSTORMS MOVING ACROSS THE MID SOUTH THIS
AFTERNOON. DESPITE MARGINALLY SUFFICIENT SHEAR/UPPER LEVEL
DIVERGENCE ALOFT...OVERALL SURFACE BASED INSTABILITY HAS BEEN
LESS THAN IDEAL WITH THE BEST SURFACE BASED CAPE /1500-2000 J/KG/
RESIDING DOWN ALONG AND SOUTH OF A LINE FROM WATER VALLEY TO
ABERDEEN MISSISSIPPI. A FEW STRONG TO SEVERE THUNDERSTORMS ARE
POSSIBLE INTO THIS EVENING WITH DAMAGING WINDS AND PERHAPS SOME
LARGE HAIL AS THE SEVERE THUNDERSTORM THREATS. HOWEVER...NOT
ANTICIPATING A MUCH GREATER SEVERE WEATHER THREAT GIVEN CURRENT
SHORT TERM TRENDS. PRECIPITABLE WATER VALUES AVERAGING UP TO 1.6
INCHES SUGGEST A POTENTIAL FOR LOCALIZED FLASH FLOODING FROM HEAVY
RAINFALL.

OTHERWISE...SHOWERS AND THUNDERSTORMS ASSOCIATED WITH THE SURFACE
LOW WILL GRADUALLY DECREASE THROUGHOUT THE DAY SUNDAY AS THE LOW
MOVES NORTHEAST INTO THE OHIO VALLEY. HIGH PRESSURE WILL BUILD
BACK INTO THE MID SOUTH FOR MONDAY AND TUESDAY AND BRING A RETURN
OF RAIN FREE WEATHER.

LONG TERM...(WEDNESDAY THROUGH SATURDAY)...12Z GFS/ECMWF LONG
TERM MODELS ARE IN BETTER AGREEMENT THAN THE PAST FEW RUNS AS AN
UPPER LEVEL TROUGH AND ASSOCIATED COLD FRONT MOVE THROUGH THE
LOWER MISSISSIPPI VALLEY THURSDAY AND THURSDAY NIGHT. THIS WILL
RESULT IN A GRADUAL INCREASE IN SHOWER/THUNDERSTORM CHANCES INTO
THURSDAY. LONG TERM MODELS STILL SUGGEST A CUT OFF UPPER LEVEL LOW
WILL DEVELOP ACROSS THE CENTRAL/SOUTHERN PLAINS AND MOVE INTO
PORTIONS OF THE MIDDLE/LOWER MISSISSIPPI VALLEY/S TOWARDS NEXT
WEEKEND. KEPT LOWER CONFIDENCE POPS GOING THROUGH THIS TIMEFRAME
UNTIL THE DETAILS BECOME BETTER RESOLVED IN SUBSEQUENT MODEL RUNS.

.AVIATION...
00Z TAF CYCLE

AS OF 00Z...SCATTERED SHOWERS AND THUNDERSTORMS HAVE REMAINED
NEAR A SURFACE LOW AROUND MEMPHIS AND A WARM FRONT BETWEEN PARIS
AND SAVANNAH TENNESSEE. SHOWERS AND THUNDERSTORMS EXPECTED TO PASS
JUST OUTSIDE OF MEM AND JBR AND THUS WILL ONLY INCLUDE A VCTS FOR
NOW THROUGH 28/01Z. THESE SHOWERS AND THUNDERSTORMS MAY AFFECT OR
PASS NEARBY MKL AND TUP NEARBY BETWEEN 28/01-03Z. VFR/MVFR
CONDITIONS AHEAD OF THE LOW WILL DETERIORATE TO MVFR CONDITIONS
THIS EVENING...IFR/LIFR CONDITIONS LATER TONIGHT...AND A GRADUAL
IMPROVEMENT TO MVFR CONDITIONS TOWARDS SUNDAY AFTERNOON.
SOUTH/SOUTHWEST WINDS BETWEEN 3-7 KTS WILL GRADUALLY BECOME
