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.

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 Lincoln, IL wrote its last area forecast discussion before this severe thunderstorm warning went out at Apr 28, 3:17 PM CDT, 1 hour 42 minutes earlier.

Area forecast discussion, Apr 28, 3:17 PM CDT, 1 hour 42 minutes before

Area Forecast Discussion
National Weather Service Lincoln IL
317 PM CDT Mon Apr 28 2014

.DISCUSSION...
ISSUED 317 PM CDT Mon Apr 28 2014

Main concerns will be storms developing over the area and moving
in from the west this afternoon and early tonight. Then the
concern will shift and become the continue chances of diurnal
precip for the rest of the week as the upper level low slowly
drifts easward into the Great Lakes region later this week. Models
look ok with the overall pattern and sfc features through the
period. Only differences seen will be in the mesoscale features
for rest of the afternoon and into tonight.

SHORT TERM...Tonight through Thursday

Tornado watch continues til 7pm as storms have fired on the dry
line in MO early this afternoon. These storms will be moving
northeast and northerly during the period over the western parts
of the area. Hail appears to be the main threat right now, but
isolated tornadoes will also be possible if the storms begin to
rotate. The storms are low-topped and will remain that way.
Thunderstorms will be possible again tomorrow as the upper level
low will still be northwest of the area, though closer than today.
Severe weather is not expected tomorrow as the best moisture will
have moved east of the area. Skies will also be cloudy south of
the low system, so instability will be quite low. Then diurnal
showers will be possible remainder of the period as the the
forecast area remains in cyclonic flow through the week. This flow
will also have temps much cooler through the period.

LONG TERM...Thursday night through Monday

Cyclonic flow continues through the rest of the week and into the
weekend. Then by end of the weekend, the system will push out of
the area. We will finally have some dry periods as high pressure
builds in for a brief period. Then another system is expected to
move into the area for Sunday.

Temps will remain on the cool side through the period.
