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 flash flood 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
Las Vegas, NV (KVEF), launched 00:00Z, 2.7 hours before the alert went out and 127 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 Las Vegas, NV wrote its last area forecast discussion before this flash flood warning went out at Aug 30, 6:20 PM PDT, 1 hour 22 minutes earlier.
Area forecast discussion, Aug 30, 6:20 PM PDT, 1 hour 22 minutes before
AREA FORECAST DISCUSSION
NATIONAL WEATHER SERVICE LAS VEGAS NV
620 PM PDT FRI AUG 30 2013
.SYNOPSIS...A MOIST AND UNSTABLE ATMOSPHERE WILL ALLOW FOR SHOWERS
AND THUNDERSTORMS TO DEVELOP ACROSS MUCH OF THE AREA THROUGH THIS
WEEKEND WITH THE GREATEST CHANCES IN THE AFTERNOON AND EVENING
HOURS. THE PRIMARY HAZARD WITH THUNDERSTORMS WILL BE HEAVY RAINFALL
THAT COULD RESULT IN FLASH FLOODING. THUNDERSTORM CHANCES ARE
EXPECTED TO DECREASE SLIGHTLY FROM SUNDAY ONWARD.
&&
.UPDATE...THE LATEST RADAR SHOWS THE BEST ORGANIZED CONVECTION WAS
GOING ON ACROSS LINCOLN COUNTY WHERE A DECENTLY ORGANIZED LINE OF
THUNDERSTORMS WAS MOVING SOUTHWEST ACROSS THE SOUTHERN HALF OF THE
COUNTY. THIS LINE APPEARS TO HAVE GOOD MOMENTUM WITH IT AND THE
LATEST LAPS DATA SHOWS THAT EVEN MORE FAVORABLE INSTABILITY, CAPE
AND POTENTIAL TEMPERATURE VALUES SIT TO THE SOUTH OF THIS LINE
ACROSS FAR SOUTHERN LINCOLN AND CLARK COUNTIES. THEREFORE I WENT
AHEAD AND ADJUSTED UP POPS IN THIS AREA AS THIS LINE SHOULD HOLD
TOGETHER FOR A WHILE. FOR THE LAS VEGAS VALLEY, IT SHOULD REMAIN DRY
FOR NOW, BUT IF THIS LINE HOLDS TOGETHER IT COULD GET INTERESTING
LATER THIS EVENING. ELSEWHERE I RAISED POPS BASED ON RADAR AND
SATELLITE IMAGERY ACROSS NORTHERN INYO AND PORTIONS OF ESMERALDA
COUNTY AS WELL. NO OTHER CHANGES WERE MADE AT THIS TIME.
&&
.PREVIOUS DISCUSSION...
ISSUED AT 320 PM PDT FRI AUG 30 2013
.SHORT TERM...TONIGHT THROUGH SUNDAY...SCATTERED SHOWERS AND
THUNDERSTORMS OVER MOST OF THE AREA THIS AFTERNOON WITH THE MORE
ORGANIZED CELLS OVER MOHAVE COUNTY. FLASH FLOODING HAS BEEN THE
BIGGEST CONCERN AND SEVERAL FLASH FLOOD WARNINGS HAVE BEEN ISSUED SO
FAR TODAY. WITH THE MORE ORGANIZED CELLS IN MOHAVE COUNTY AND
EASTERN LINCOLN COUNTY ARE LIKELY BEING DRIVEN BY A UPPER LEVEL
DISTURBANCE OVER CENTRAL ARIZONA AND ITS LIKELY THAT THESE WILL
CONTINUE INTO THIS EVENING AND POSSIBLY OVERNIGHT. WILL NEED TO ALSO
WATCH FOR THE POSSIBILITY THAT THE STORMS IN SOUTHWEST UT AND
EASTERN LINCOLN COUNTY WILL BECOME MORE ORGANIZED AND START HEADING
IN A SOUTHWEST DIRECTION. MUCH OF SOUTHERN LINCOLN AND NORTHEAST
CLARK COUNTIES HAVE REMAINED IN FULL SUN FOR MUCH OF TODAY AND THE
SHORT RANGE MODELS ARE INDICATING PLENTY OF AVAILABLE ENERGY THAT
THESE STORMS COULD MOVE INTO. OUTSIDE OF THESE AREAS THUNDERSTORMS
SHOULD START TO DECREASE AFTER SUNSET AS MOST OF THESE ARE HEAT
DRIVEN. NOT MUCH CHANGE ON SATURDAY AS PLENTY OF MOISTURE AND
INSTABILITY REMAINS IN PLACE THE DEEPER MOISTURE IS EXPECTED TO
PUSH A LITTLE FURTHER NORTH WHILE SOMEWHAT MORE STABLE AIR PUSHES
INTO THE WESTERN SECTIONS OF THE CWA. THE MODELS ARE STILL
INDICATING THE DISTURBANCE OVER ARIZONA WILL STILL BE A FACTOR INTO
SATURDAY...ALTHOUGH WEAKER. HAVE DECIDED TO ISSUED A FLASH FLOOD
WATCH FOR SATURDAY AFTERNOON AND EVENING FOR
MOHAVE...LINCOLN...CLARK...SOUTHERN NYE...AND EASTERN SAN BERNARDINO
COUNTIES. ONCE AGAIN ANY STORM WILL BE CAPABLE OF PRODUCING HEAVY
AMOUNTS OF RAIN IN A SHORT AMOUNT OF TIME.
BY SUNDAY MOISTURE ACROSS THE AREA STARTS TO DECREASE...BUT ONLY
BACK TO AROUND NORMAL FOR THIS TIME OF YEAR AND SOME MORE STABLE AIR
STARTS TO FILTER INTO THE WESTERN HALF OF THE AREA. THIS SHOULD
CONFINE STORMS TO MAINLY THE EASTERN HALF OF THE AREA. WITH ENOUGH
INSTABILITY IN PLACE WE WILL LIKE SEE ISOLATED THUNDERSTORMS ONCE
AGAIN...BUT MORE TYPICAL OF A MONSOON PATTERN. AN NOT EXPECTING ANY
WATCHES TO BE ISSUED AT THIS TIME BEYOND SATURDAY. TEMPERATURES WILL
BE AT TO SLIGHTLY BELOW NORMAL THROUGH SUNDAY AND THEN START TO
INCREASE TO A FEW DEGREES ABOVE NORMAL BY MONDAY.
.LONG TERM...SUNDAY NIGHT THROUGH THURSDAY...MODELS IN PRETTY GOOD
AGREEMENT SUNDAY NIGHT THROUGH TUESDAY WITH A PRETTY GENERIC MONSOON
PATTERN AND NO SIGNIFICANT WAVES IMPACTING THE AREA. HIGH PRESSURE
IS FORECAST ROUGHLY OVER THE COLORADO AND NEW MEXICO BORDER AREA
WITH AN AREA OF LOW PRESSURE OFF THE PACIFIC NORTHWEST COAST.
SOUTHERLY FLOW OVER THE FORECAST AREA WILL KEEP MONSOON MOISTURE
AROUND WITH THE DEEPEST MOISTURE OVER THE EASTERN PORTION OF THE
FORECAST AREA AS IS TYPICAL WITH THIS PATTERN. AS A RESULT WE ARE
STILL LOOKING AT A CHANCE OF THUNDERSTORMS EAST WITH A SLIGHT CHANCE
WEST. MODELS DIFFER FOR WEDNESDAY THROUGH THURSDAY WITH THE GFS AND
TO A LESSER EXTENT THE GEM MOVING THE AREA OF LOW PRESSURE INLAND.
THIS WOULD BRING DRIER AIR INTO THE AREA FROM THE WEST. THE ECMWF IS
EXPANDING THE HIGH WESTWARD WHICH MAY KEEP A BIT MORE MOISTURE IN
PLACE BUT ALSO COULD LEAD TO WARMING AND SOME STABILIZING. BASICALLY
GOING WITH A BLEND...I MADE LITTLE CHANGE TO THE INHERITED GRIDS AND
KEPT AT LEAST A SLIGHT CHANCE OVER THE EASTERN TWO THIRDS OF THE
FORECAST AREA WHILE DRYING THE WEST BY THURSDAY. ALSO WENT WITH A
WARMING TREND AND ABOVE NORMAL TEMPERATURES WEDNESDAY AND THURSDAY.
&&
.AVIATION...FOR MCCARRAN...SHOWERS AND THUNDERSTORMS WILL AFFECT ALL
APPROACH CORRIDORS INTO THIS EVENING. THERE WILL BE A CHANCE OF
SHRA/TSRA AT MCCARRAN LATE THIS AFTERNOON AND EVENING WITH CLOUDS
POTENTIALLY LOWERING TO 6-8K FEET. OTHERWISE CIGS EXPECTED TO REMAIN
AOA 10K FEET OVERNIGHT. WINDS WILL GENERALLY BE UNDER 8 KTS...BUT
MAY GUST OVER 20 KTS IN THE VICINITY OF ANY STORM. CONDITIONS ARE
EXPECTED TO BE THE SAME SATURDAY WITH ISOLATED TO SCATTERED
THUNDERSTORMS IN THE AFTERNOON.
FOR THE REST OF SOUTHERN NEVADA...NORTHWEST ARIZONA...AND SOUTHEAST
CALIFORNIA...SCATTERED SHOWERS AND THUNDERSTORMS AFFECTING MUCH OF
THE AREA THIS AFTERNOON AND WILL LIKELY CONTINUE INTO THIS EVENING.
ACTIVITY IS FORECAST TO DECREASE OVER THE WESTERN HALF OF THE AREA
WHILE IT MAY CONTINUE LATER INTO THE EVENING OVER THE EASTERN HALF.
CIGS DOWN TO 5K FEET AND VSBYS DOWN TO 3-5SM POSSIBLE IN HEAVIER
STORMS. OUTSIDE OF ANY THUNDERSTORM INFLUENCE...WINDS WILL REMAIN
UNDER 10 KTS...BUT MAY GUST UP TO 30 KTS NEAR STORMS. CONDITIONS ARE
EXPECTED TO REMAIN NEARLY THE SAME ON SATURDAY...ALTHOUGH STORMS MAY
BE A LITTLE MORE ISOLATED OVER THE WESTERN HALF OF THE AREA.
