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.

What forecasters said that day

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

NWS Grand Rapids, MI wrote its last area forecast discussion before this severe thunderstorm warning went out at Jul 1, 12:05 AM EDT, 32 minutes earlier.

Area forecast discussion, Jul 1, 12:05 AM EDT, 32 minutes before

AREA FORECAST DISCUSSION
NATIONAL WEATHER SERVICE GRAND RAPIDS MI
1205 AM EDT TUE JUL 1 2014

LATEST UPDATE...
MESOSCALE DISCUSSION

.MESOSCALE DISCUSSION...
ISSUED AT 1205 PM EDT MON JUL 1 2014

LINE OF CONVECTION ACROSS SOUTHERN LAKE MICHIGAN EXPECTED TO TRACK
ACROSS SOUTHERN FORECAST AREA NEXT COUPLE HOURS WITH POTENTIAL FOR
STRONG WINDS AND HEAVY RAINS. EXPECTING SEVERE THREAT TO BE
LIMITED TO ALONG AND SOUTH OF THE I-94 CORRIDOR WHERE THERE ALSO
COULD BE ALSO AN ISOLATED TORNADO THREAT AS SFC WINDS HAVE BACKED
SOUTHEAST IN WAKE OF PRIOR CONVECTION...ALLOWING FOR SOME LOCALLY
HIGHER STORM RELATIVE HELICITY.

FLOODING THREAT WILL ALSO BE MONITORED AS ABOUT AN INCH OF RAIN
FELL FROM THE PRIOR STORMS AND THIS LINE COULD DROP ANOTHER QUICK
INCH OR MORE.

&&

.SYNOPSIS...
ISSUED AT 250 PM EDT MON JUN 30 2014

SEVERE THUNDERSTORMS WITH DAMAGING WINDS POSSIBLE TONIGHT. MUCH
COOLER WEATHER TUESDAY THROUGH THURSDAY WITH A GRADUAL WARMUP
EXPECTED OVER THE WEEKEND.

&&

.SHORT TERM...(THIS EVENING THROUGH WEDNESDAY NIGHT)
ISSUED AT 250 PM EDT MON JUN 30 2014

SEVERE WEATHER POTENTIAL TONIGHT THE FOCUS OF THE SHORT TERM WITH
ALL EYES ON STORMS OVER IOWA/NEBRASKA/WISCONSIN/ILLINOIS AND HOW
THEY MOVE TOWARD LOWER MICHIGAN. GREATEST POTENTIAL FOR LONG
LASTING STORMS WITH THE GREATEST RISK FOR WIDESPREAD WIND DAMAGE
REMAINS WEST AND SOUTH OF LAKE MICHIGAN. HOWEVER...A LOW LEVEL JET
OF UP TO 70 KNOTS NUDGES INTO THE STATE THIS EVENING KEEPING
ELEVATED OUR POTENTIAL FOR DAMAGING WIND STORMS IN THE FORM OF A
SQUALL LINE AND POSSIBLY A BRIEF WEAK TORNADO.

INSTABILITY AND WIND SHEAR INTO THE NIGHT SUPPORTS STORM MAINTENANCE
IN LOWER MICHIGAN...ESPECIALLY IN FAR SOUTHWESTER PART OF THE STATE
THOUGH ALL OF LOWER MICHIGAN IS AT RISK FOR SEVERE STORMS TONIGHT.
GETTING PAST PEAK HEATING AND WELL INTO THE NIGHTTIME HOURS BEFORE
STORMS WORK IN COULD HELP TO LIMIT HOW STRONG STORMS ARE WHEN THEY
REACH LOWER MICHIGAN.

CURRENT TIMING OF THE STORMS WOULD SUGGEST THAT 8PM WOULD BE THE
EARLIEST THE MAIN STORMS WOULD ARRIVE AND QUITE POSSIBLY AFTER 10PM.
MODELS FAVOR THE LATER TIMING...BUT TYPICALLY THESE TYPE OF STORMS
MOVE FASTER THAN EXPECTED...SO 8PM COULD BE A REASONABLE STARTING
TIME FOR STORMS APPROACHING THE LAKE MICHIGAN SHORE. PROGRESSIVE
MOVEMENT OF STORMS APPEAR LIKELY...MEANING THEY SHOULD MOVE OUT
PRETTY QUICKLY. STORMS WILL NOT AFFECT MANY LOCATIONS UNTIL AFTER
FOLKS TYPICALLY GO TO SLEEP FOR THE NIGHT.

BEYOND TONIGHT...A PRETTY QUIET REMAINDER OF THE SHORT TERM WITH
ONLY A FEW CHANCES FOR LIGHT SHOWERS TUESDAY AND WEDNESDAY
AFTERNOONS/EVENINGS. TEMPERATURES TO BE MUCH COOLER WITH AFTERNOON
HIGHS RIGHT AROUND 70 BOTH TUESDAY AND WEDNESDAY.

.LONG TERM...(THURSDAY THROUGH MONDAY)
ISSUED AT 250 PM EDT MON JUN 30 2014

MOST OF THE LONG TERM PERIOD LOOKS FAIRLY DRY AND MILD ACROSS SW
LOWER MICHIGAN. WE WILL SEE THE MID WEEK TROUGH LIFTING OUT OF THE
AREA ON THU. WE WILL SEE A BROAD UPPER RIDGE SLOWLY BUILD TOWARD THE
AREA FROM THU RIGHT ON INTO SUN. THIS RIDGE WILL LIKELY BE SLOW TO
MOVE WITH BROAD TROUGHING OVER THE ERN PACIFIC AND A POSSIBLE
TROPICAL SYSTEM MOVING NORTH JUST OFF OF THE EAST U.S. COAST. COOL
TEMPS FOR THIS TIME OF THE YEAR INITIALLY IN THE 70S WILL SLOWLY
MODERATE EACH DAY WITH HIGHS IN THE 80S BY SUN.

WE WILL SEE A PUSH OF MUCH WARMER AND MOIST AIR MAKE A RUN AT THE
AREA LATE SUN AND INTO MON. ONCE THE POTENTIAL TROPICAL SYSTEM OVER
THE WRN ATLANTIC STEERS OUT TO SEA...THIS WILL ALLOW THE RIDGE TO
SHIFT EAST AND THE NEXT TROUGH TO MOVE TOWARD THE AREA. THE CHC OF
SHOWERS AND STORMS WILL THEN INCREASE SUN NIGHT AND MON WITH A
RETURN TO MORE TYPICAL SUMMER TIME TEMPERATURES AND HUMIDITY.

&&

.AVIATION...(FOR THE 00Z TAFS THROUGH 00Z TUESDAY EVENING)
ISSUED AT 743 PM EDT MON JUN 30 2014

CONVECTION HAS ACCELERATED AND IS TRACKING CLOSE TO 50 KNOTS. THUS
THE TAFS FEATURE A SOONER ARRIVAL OF THE STORMS. THIS ALSO MEANS
THE LINE MOVES OUT QUICKER. WHILE LESS IN THE WAY OF CONVECTION IS
FORECASTED LATER TONIGHT...INSTABILITY DOES PERSIST...THUS I
FEATURED VCTS IN THE TAFS. GUSTY WINDS OVER 35 KNOTS LIKELY WITH THE
ONSET OF THIS INITIAL BATCH OF STORMS.

&&

.MARINE...
ISSUED AT 250 PM EDT MON JUN 30 2014

WINDS AND WAVES TO POSE HAZARDS TO SMALL CRAFT AND BEACH GOERS
THROUGH THIS EVENING. WINDS AND WAVES WILL DIMINISH OVERNIGHT BUT
GUSTY WINDS WILL CREATE HAZARDOUS CONDITIONS AGAIN TUESDAY.

&&

.HYDROLOGY...
ISSUED AT 250 PM EDT MON JUN 30 2014

THUNDERSTORMS ARE EXPECTED TONIGHT AND THESE STORMS ARE LIKELY TO
PRODUCE MODERATE TO HEAVY RAINFALL FOR A BRIEF PERIOD OF TIME.
THIS COULD RESULT IN SOME LOCALIZED FLOODING AND QUICK RISES ON
CREEKS AND STREAMS. TRAINING OF STORMS IS NOT ANTICIPATED TO OCCUR
THIS EVENING...SO RISES ON LARGER RIVERS IS EXPECTED TO BE
MINIMAL.
