The radar

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.
The nearest sounding before it
Las Vegas, NV (KVEF), launched 12:00Z, 10.6 hours before the alert went out and 187 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.

Area forecast discussion, Jul 21, 1:55 PM PDT, 1 hour 43 minutes before
AREA FORECAST DISCUSSION
NATIONAL WEATHER SERVICE LAS VEGAS NV
155 PM PDT SUN JUL 21 2013
.SYNOPSIS...THUNDERSTORM ACTIVITY WILL EXPAND ACROSS THE MOJAVE
DESERT THROUGH THE EVENING HOURS. A MOIST SOUTHEASTERLY FLOW WITH
CONTINUE TO ENHANCE MONSOONAL MOISTURE ON MONDAY...PROVIDING
ADDITIONAL FUEL FOR THUNDERSTORMS AND THE THREAT OF FLASH FLOODING.
MORE ORGANIZED STORM CELLS COULD PRODUCE ISOLATED SEVERE WINDS
IN SOME AREAS.
&&
.SHORT TERM...A CIRCULATION OVER SOUTH CENTRAL CALIFORNIA IS EVIDENT
ON RADAR IMAGE AS AIDING IN SHOWER AND THUNDERSTORM ACTIVITY ACROSS
SOUTHEAST SAN BERNARDINO COUNTY AND THE SOUTHERN HALF OF MOHAVE
COUNTY. THIS CIRCULATION AND CONVECTION WILL CONTINUE TO MOVE TO THE
NORTH...NORTHWEST DURING THE AFTERNOON AND EVENING HOURS...AND
ACROSS SAN BERNARDINO COUNTY. THUNDERSTORMS HAVE ALSO FIRED
ONCE AGAIN OVER THE NORTHERN PORTIONS OF LINCOLN COUNTY AND
SOUTHWEST UTAH AND ARE SLOWLY BUILDING TO THE SOUTH. A SUBSTANTIAL
CLOUD SHIELD HAS LIMITED TEMPERATURES AND CONVECTION ACROSS MUCH OF
CLARK COUNTY SO FAR TODAY...WITH ONLY A FEW LIGHT SHOWERS.
HOWEVER...I EXPECT SOME BRIEF BREAKS OF SUNSHINE THIS AFTERNOON AND
WITH SUFFICIENT MOISTURE...INSTABILITY AND DYNAMICS...EXPECT
THUNDERSTORM ACTIVITY TO INCREASE ACROSS SOUTHERN NEVADA LATER THIS
AFTERNOON AND EVENING. A VERY MOIST SOUTHEASTERLY FLOW WILL BE IN
PLACE ON MONDAY AND WITH AN UPPER LEVEL IMPULSE MOVING NORTH INTO
CENTRAL CALIFORNIA...EXPECT ANOTHER ACTIVE DAY ACROSS THE FORECAST
AREA. FLASH FLOODING WILL CONTINUE TO BE THE PRIMARY CONCERN WITH
ISOLATED SEVERE WINDS ALSO POSSIBLE. TEMPERATURES IN MOST LOCATIONS
WILL BE SEVERAL DEGREES BELOW NORMAL THIS AFTERNOON AND MONDAY.
&&
.LONG TERM...TUESDAY THROUGH SUNDAY...THE LATEST OPERATIONAL MODELS
CONTINUE TO SHIFT THE UPPER LEVEL FLOW TO A SOUTHWESTERLY DIRECTION
BY TUESDAY. THIS WILL RESULT IN A SLIGHT DRYING TREND THROUGH
FRIDAY. IN SPITE OF THE DRYING TREND THERE WILL STILL BE SUFFICIENT
MOISTURE AND INSTABILITY FOR AFTERNOON AND EVENING THUNDERSTORMS...
WITH THE BEST CHANCES FOR THUNDERSTORMS FOR AREAS TO THE NORTH AND
EAST OF LAS VEGAS. THUNDERSTORM COVERAGE WILL DECREASE EACH DAY
TUESDAY THROUGH FRIDAY...WITH THE GREATEST DECREASE IN THE MOJAVE
DESERT. MODELS CONTINUE TO SHOW THAT THE UPPER LEVEL FLOW WILL
SWITCH TO A MORE SOUTHERLY DIRECTION BY SATURDAY. THIS WILL ALLOW
FOR MORE MOISTURE TO ADVECT INTO THE REGION...AND WILL RESULT
INCREASED THUNDERSTORM CHANCES FOR THE UPCOMING WEEKEND. I DID MAKE
SLIGHT CHANGES TO THE POP AND SKY GRIDS TO REFLECT THE MOST RECENT
MODELS. BELOW NORMAL TEMPERATURES ARE EXPECTED TO FOR TUESDAY WITH A
WARMING TREND EXPECTED THROUGH THE END OF THE WEEK. THERE IS STILL A
LARGE SPREAD IN THE TEMPERATURE GUIDANCE...PRIMARILY FOR THURSDAY
ONWARD. THE CURRENT TEMPERATURE GRIDS REPRESENT A MIDDLE OF THE
ROAD SOLUTION.
&&
.AVIATION...FOR MCCARRAN...SOUTH WINDS AROUND 10KTS WILL CONTINUE
THROUGH THE EVENING. MORE STORMS ARE EXPECTED LATER THIS AFTERNOON
AND EVENING WITH NUMEROUS STORMS EXPECTED IN THE PEACH SPRINGS AND
DAGGETT CORRIDORS AND SCATTERED STORMS IN AND AROUND THE LAS VEGAS
VALLEY. EXPECT STRONG AND ERRATIC WINDS NEAR THUNDERSTORMS.
FOR THE REST OF SOUTHERN NEVADA...NORTHWEST ARIZONA...AND SOUTHEAST
CALIFORNIA...SCATTERED THUNDERSTORMS ARE EXPECTED ACROSS THE AREA
WITH MORE NUMEROUS STORMS EXPECTED IN SAN BERNARDINO AND MOHAVE
COUNTIES. WINDS WILL BE SOUTHERLY AT AROUND 10 KTS...BUT SLIGHTLY
STRONGER UP THE OWENS VALLEY. ALSO...WINDS IN AND AROUND
THUNDERSTORMS WINDS CAN BE STRONG AND ERRATIC.
