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 nearest sounding before it
Newport, NC (KMHX), launched 00:00Z, 9.0 hours before the alert went out and 40 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.

TROPICAL STORM ANDREA WILL MOVE QUICKLY NORTHEAST INLAND FROM THE

AND WILL HAVE TO CLOSELY WATCH RDR FOR POSS BRIEF TORNADO
POTENTIAL MAINLY CST WHERE INSTAB A BIT HIGHER. SATL SHOWS SOME
DRY SLOT WRAPPING INTO ANDREA TO THE S OF MAIN RAIN BAND AND
EXPECT SHRA WL BECOME MORE SCT OR INTERMITTENT LATER TODAY...WL
CONT CATEGORICAL POPS. WL CONT FLOOD WATCH...AS VERY HEAVY
DOWNPOURS A GOOD BET WITH PRECIP WTR VALUES WELL OVER 2 INCHES.
GIVEN DRY GROUND AND LOW STREAM LVLS NOT EXPECTING WIDESPREAD
MAJOR FLOODING ISSUES...MAINLY URBAN AND POOR DRAINAGE. HIGHS
MAINLY LOW 80S WITH MOIST/TROPICAL AIRMASS OVER THE REGION.
&&
.SHORT TERM /TONIGHT/...
AS OF 220 AM FRI...RAIN SHIELD WITH ANDREA WILL LIFT NE AWAY FROM
REGION QUICKLY THIS EVENING AND CONT LIKELY POP EARLY FOR ONLY FAR
NE TIER. WL MAINTAIN CHC POP OVERNIGHT AS WEAK TROFFING CONTS IN
WAKE OF ANDREA WITH PLENTY OF LOW LVL MOISTURE. GUSTY SW WINDS IN
THE EVENING WILL STEADILY DIMINISH OVERNIGHT AS ANDREA MOVES
FURTHER AWAY. LOWS WILL BE MAINLY IN THE UPR 60S TO LOWER 70S WITH
POSS SOME MID 70S BEACHES.
&&
.LONG TERM /SATURDAY THROUGH THURSDAY/...
AS OF 250 AM FRI...NO SIGNIFICANT CHANGES NEEDED TO PREVIOUS
FORECAST. THE PATTERN FOR THE EXTENDED WILL FEATURE A BROAD
CYCLONIC FLOW ALOFT ACROSS THE EASTERN US WHILE AT THE
SURFACE...ATLANTIC HIGH PRESSURE WILL CIRCULATE WARM AND MOIST AIR
ACROSS THE CAROLINAS WITH A LINGERING TROUGH LOCATED WELL INLAND.
WITH THE LIKELIHOOD OF A FEW LOW AMPLITUDE MID LEVEL DISTURBANCES
MOVING THROUGH ALOFT WE EXPECT THIS TO LEAD TO SCATTERED MAINLY
DIURNAL CONVECTION THROUGH THE WEEKEND. CAN'T RULE OUT A LOW END
SEVERE THREAT WITH THESE STORMS WITH WEAK SHEAR OF 20-25 KT BUT
THE MAIN THREAT WILL BE HEAVY RAINS DUE TO THE HIGH PW VALUES AND
AMPLE CAPE. AT THIS TIME THINK BEST COVERAGE OF CONVECTION WILL BE
SATURDAY AFTERNOON/EVENING.
THE UPPER PATTERN WILL UNDERGO MORE AMPLIFICATION FROM EARLY TO THE
MIDDLE OF NEXT WEEK WITH A DEEPER UPPER TROUGH POISED TO MOVE SLOWLY
THROUGH THE AREA. THE ASSOCIATED WEAKENING SURFACE COLD FRONT IS
FORECAST TO APPROACH THE AREA MONDAY THEN MOVE SLOWLY ACROSS THE
REGION TUESDAY PERHAPS LINGERING INTO WEDNESDAY OR THURSDAY.
REGARDLESS OF THE FRONT IT APPEARS THAT THERE WILL BE A GOOD CHANCE
FOR CONVECTION EACH DAY WITH THE EXCEPTION OF WEDNESDAY WHERE
FORECAST HIGHER SURFACE PRESSURE COULD LIMIT COVERAGE. WITH THIS
UNCERTAINTY IN MIND AND DIFFERENCES IN THE GUIDANCE THINK IT'S BEST
TO TAKE A BROAD BRUSHED APPROACH TO THE FORECAST WITH CHANCE POPS
EACH DAY AND NORMAL TEMPERATURES. LATER FORECASTS CAN FINE THE
PRECIPITATION FORECAST WHEN THE TIMING OF THE FRONTS BECOMES MORE
EVIDENT AND CONFIDENCE INCREASES.
