The radar

The Columbus AFB radar (KGWX), 92 km from the middle of the area, began a volume at 07:18 UTC, the scan nearest the moment this went out.

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

Little Rock, AR (KBYH), launched 00:00Z, 7.3 hours before the alert went out and 189 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.

.DISCUSSION.../ISSUED 833 PM CDT SUN OCT 12 2014/
CLUSTERS OF CONVECTION, SOME OF WHICH HAVE BEEN SUPERCELLULAR,
CONTINUE TO REDEVELOP ALONG AND N OF A SFC WARM FRONT SITUATED NEAR
AND JUST NORTH OF THE I-20 CORRIDOR IN MS AND AL. A WEDGE FRONT WAS
PUSHING SWWD (NOTED ON FFC RADAR) INTO NWRN GA. THIS MAY EVEN GET
CLOSE TO DEKALB COUNTY. AS ONE CLUSTER CROSSES NERN AL AT THIS HOUR,
NEW DEVELOPMENT WAS ORIENTED IN A SSW- NNE DIRECTION IN WRN AL FROM
WNW OF TUSCALOOSA THRU HAYLEYVILLE AND MOULTON IN LAWRENCE COUNTY.
THESE WILL LIKELY TRACK NE INTO NC/NERN AL OVER THE NEXT FEW HOURS.
OTHER CLUSTERS OF STORMS ARE GATHERING IN THE ARKLAMISS REGION WITH
AN EXPECTED MOVEMENT TO THE NE AND WILL AFFECT NW AL AND SRN TN LATE
TONIGHT. THIS ACTIVITY WILL BE FEEDING OFF AN INCREASING LLJ ACROSS
THE LOWER MS VALLEY. OUR LLJ SPEEDS WILL INCREASE TO 25-30KT,
CERTAINLY ENOUGH TO KEEP PERSISTENT MOISTURE TRANSPORT. EFFECTIVE
BULK SHEAR VALUES OF 30-40KT SHOULD SUSTAIN ACTIVITY OVERNIGHT AS
WELL DESPITE LOSS OF HEATING, BUT THE OVERALL SEVERE WEATHER THREAT
REMAINS QUITE LOW. WE HAVE HAD WEAK-MODERATE MESOCYCLONES THAT WERE
PROBABLY AIDED BY AFTERNOON HEATING. OUR BIGGER CONCERN OVERNIGHT
WILL BE LOCALLY EXCESSIVE RAINFALL DUE TO TRAINING. THE PRIMARY AREA
OF CONCERN IS ACROSS OUR SRN/SERN COUNTIES WHICH RECEIVED HEAVY RAINS
ON SATURDAY NIGHT AND AGAIN TODAY. WILL BE RAISING THE POP IN THESE
AREA INTO THE CATEGORICAL RANGE.

AK

.AVIATION...
FOR 06Z TAFS... NMRS SHRA AND TSRA WILL AFFECT THE KMSL AND KHSV
VCNTY THRU AT LEAST 08Z. THIS TREND MAY NEED FURTHER AMDS THIS
MORNING. TEMPO FLIGHT RESTRICTIONS (IFR AT KMSL AND MVFR AT KHSV) DUE
TO LOWERED VSBY WITHIN TS. LOW CLOUDS MAY TEND TO DEVELOP BY 14Z IF
NOT SOONER IN MOIST SELY FLOW. THE CIGS SHOULD SCATTER AND LIFT INTO
THE VFR CATEGORY BY LATE MONDAY MORNING. ADDITIONAL SHRA AND TSRA MAY
DEVELOP MONDAY AFTERNOON AND EVENING, BUT PROB IS TOO LOW TO INCLUDE
IN THE PREVAILING FORECAST. SHRA AND TSRA WILL INCREASE IN COVERAGE
IN ADVANCE OF A STRONG COLD FRONT LATE MONDAY EVENING AND MONDAY
NIGHT, AND FUTURE FORECASTS WILL LIKELY REFLECT THIS TREND.
