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
Gray, ME (KGYX), launched 00:00Z, 0.6 hours before the alert went out and 63 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
NATIONAL WEATHER SERVICE GRAY ME
625 PM EDT WED JUN 25 2014
.SYNOPSIS...
A COLD FRONT WILL MOVE IN FROM THE NORTHWEST THIS EVENING...SETTING
OFF SHOWERS AND THUNDERSTORMS. THE FRONT WILL STALL ACROSS THE
REGION OVERNIGHT AND THEN SHIFT OFFSHORE ON THURSDAY. THIS FRONT
WILL BE THE FOCUS FOR LOCALLY HEAVY RAINFALL THIS EVENING INTO
THURSDAY. HIGH PRESSURE FOLLOWS THE FRONT FOR FRIDAY AND THE
WEEKEND. WARMER AND MORE HUMID AIR RETURNS FOR THE FIRST HALF OF
NEXT WEEK.
&&
.NEAR TERM /UNTIL 6 AM THURSDAY MORNING/...
UPDATED FCST TO ADJUST TO CURRENT TRENDS IN RADAR AND SKY COVER.
LOWERED CHC OF PRCP AND SKY COVER OVER EXTREME SE NH AND LOWERED
CHC OF PRCP FAR NRN ZONES WITH BAND JUST TO THE S OF THAT AREA.
INCREASED CHC OF PRCP CONSIDERABLY ACROSS THE REST OF THE FCST
AREA. DROPPED MENTION OF ANY SVR TSTMS AS STRONGEST CONVECTION HAS
ENDED OVER THE FCST AREA. HOWEVER...TSTMS HEADING FOR OUR EXTREME
SRN AND SE NH ZONES MAY BE STRONG ENOUGH FOR GUSTY WINDS AND SMALL
HAIL SO PUT IN THAT ENHANCED WORDING FOR THE NEXT FEW HOURS. ANY
OTHER CHANGES TO THE FCST JUST VERY MINOR TWEAKS.
ORIGINAL FCST DISCUSSION...
AT 18Z...THE SURFACE FRONT WAS DRAPED ACROSS OUR NORTHERN
TIER OF COUNTIES VICINITY OF THE INTERNATIONAL BORDER. CONVECTION
WAS INCREASING IN COVERAGE UPSTREAM IN RESPONSE TO APPROACHING
SHORTWAVE. PRECIPITABLE WATER VALUES WERE APPROACHING TWO INCHES
NEAR THE BOUNDARY. WEAK SURFACE LOW IS PROGGED TO TRAVEL EAST-
NORTHEAST ALONG THE BOUNDARY WITH MODELS HINTING AT A NARROW AXIS
OF 1 TO 3 INCH RAINS FROM THIS EVENING THROUGH DAWN ON
THURSDAY...WITH SOME LOCALIZED 4 TO 5 INCH AMOUNTS. WE'VE POSTED
THE FLASH FLOOD WATCH TO REFLECT THE AREA WHERE THE HEAVY RAIN
AXIS IS LIKELY TO SET UP TONIGHT. A BLEND OF MET/MAV WAS USED TO
INITIALIZE LOW TEMPERATURES.
ACROSS SOUTHEAST NEW HAMPSHIRE AND ADJACENT SOUTHWEST MAINE...THERE
WAS ENOUGH DAYTIME HEATING TO OPEN A NARROW WINDOW FOR STRONG
CONVECTION THROUGH EARLY EVENING WHERE A FEW STORMS COULD PRODUCE
STRONG WIND GUSTS.
&&
.SHORT TERM /6 AM THURSDAY MORNING THROUGH THURSDAY NIGHT/...
SHOWERS AND SCATTERED THUNDERSTORMS GRADUALLY TAPER FROM SOUTHWEST
TO NORTHEAST WITH PASSAGE OF THE IMPULSE AND ASSOCIATED SURFACE
WAVE. IT'LL BE A DAY OF SLOW IMPROVEMENT WITH HIGHS MAINLY IN THE
70S,
WE'LL FINALLY CLEAR THURSDAY NIGHT AS HIGH PRESSURE AND DRIER AIR
PUSHES IN FROM THE NORTH.
&&
.LONG TERM /FRIDAY THROUGH WEDNESDAY/...
HIGH PRESSURE BEGINS TO BUILD OVER NEW ENGLAND FROM CANADA ON
FRIDAY BRINGING MUCH DRIER AND COOLER AIR TO THE REGION. ON
SATURDAY...HIGH PRESSURE WILL BECOME SITUATED DIRECTLY OVER THE
FORECAST AREA...ALLOWING FOR MILD CONDITIONS WITH LIGHT WINDS. SEA
BREEZES WILL FORM ALONG THE COAST HOWEVER DURING THE LATE MORNING
AND AFTERNOON HOURS. MODERATION TREND BEGINS ON
SUNDAY...ESPECIALLY OVER THE INTERIOR.
ALL MODELS WITHIN THE 12Z MODEL SUITE CONTINUE TO SHOW A BERMUDA
HIGH BY EARLY NEXT WEEK. THE FIRST PROLONG PERIOD OF HEAT AND
HUMIDITY WILL THEN ENTER OUR FORECAST AREA WITH TEMPERATURES IN
THE 80S AND INCREASING DEW POINT VALUES.
&&
.AVIATION /00Z THURSDAY THROUGH MONDAY/...
SHORT TERM /THROUGH THURSDAY NIGHT/...CONDITIONS LOWERING TO
WIDESPREAD MVFR IN SHOWERS WITH LCL IFR IN THUNDERSTORMS...MAINLY MVFR
THURSDAY IN SHOWERS AND ISOLATED THUNDER WITH CONDITIONS IMPROVING
TO VFR THURSDAY NIGHT.
LONG TERM...CONDITIONS MAINLY VFR THROUGH THE PERIOD WITH SOME
HAZE AND FOG DURING THE LATE NIGHT PERIODS RESULTING IN LOCAL MVFR
CONDITIONS EARLY NEXT WEEK.
&&
.MARINE...
SHORT TERM /TONIGHT THROUGH THURSDAY NIGHT/...UPDATED TO DROP THE
SCA FOR HAZARDOUS SEAS. SEAS AT 4 FT OR LOWER AT THIS TIME WITH
THE LNB DROPPING FROM 3 TO 2 FT. SWAN GUIDANCE KEEPS SEAS BELOW 5
FT THRU THURSDAY EVEN THOUGH WNA4 GUIDANCE PUSHES SEAS AT OR ABOVE
5 FT. BASED ON CURRENT TRENDS AND LACK OF STRONG PRES GRADIENT, AS
THE COLD FNT SLOWLY DROPS S INTO THE WATERS, TO GENERATE STRONG
ENOUGH WINDS TO BUILD SEAS EXPECT SEAS TO STAY BELOW THE 5 FT
THRESHOLD FOR AN SCA FOR HAZARDOUS SEAS.
LONG TERM...PERSISTENT SOUTHWESTERLY FLOW WILL ALLOW FOR SEAS AND
GUSTY WINDS TO INCREASE NEXT WEEK AS THE HEAT POURS INTO THE
REGION. SCAS WILL LIKELY BE NEEDED DURING THAT PERIOD.
&&
.HYDROLOGY...
SHOWERS AND THUNDERSTORMS THIS EVENING AND OVERNIGHT WILL PRODUCE
HEAVY RAINFALL THAT COULD LEAD TO LOCALIZED FLOODING. 1 TO 3
INCHES OF RAIN IS LIKELY WITH THIS FRONTAL SYSTEM. IN THE MORE
PERSISTENT RAIN BANDS...THE POSSIBILITY EXITS FOR SOME 4 TO 5 INCH
TOTALS AND LOCALIZED FLASH FLOODING. BASED ON LATEST GUIDANCE
WE'VE POSTED A FLASH FLOOD WATCH FOR ALL OF THE FORECAST AREA
EXCEPT THE MOUNTAINS OF WRN ME AND FAR NRN NH FROM THIS EVENING
THROUGH THURSDAY MORNING.
