The radar

The Lincoln radar (KILX), 49 km from the middle of the area, began a volume at 21:18 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 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

Lincoln, IL (KILX), launched 12:00Z, 9.3 hours before the alert went out and 111 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.

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 Feb 20, 1:15 PM CST, 2 hours 2 minutes earlier.

Area forecast discussion, Feb 20, 1:15 PM CST, 2 hours 2 minutes before

Area Forecast Discussion
National Weather Service Lincoln IL
115 PM CST Thu Feb 20 2014

.MESOSCALE DISCUSSION...
ISSUED 114 PM CST Thu Feb 20 2014

Warm front getting a substantial push northward and is starting to
come into Bloomington. Still have mid to upper 30s to the north,
but widespread upper 50s to near 60 south. Dew points of 50 degrees
now as far north as Lincoln.

Line of thunderstorms rapidly filling in across central Missouri,
in an area where some clearing helped destabilize the atmosphere,
with surface based CAPE's around 1000 J/kg per SPC mesoanalysis
page. HRRR has been doing a good job with the development and
placement of this line. HRRR and extrapolation tool on AWIPS
indicate the line should move into the western CWA between 2:30
and 3 pm and reach the eastern counties between 4-5 pm. Still
several inches of snow cover across the north which will help
stabilize things, but Springfield has lost 4 inches of snow depth
just this morning and much of what's left will be gone very soon,
helping with the instability. RAP model showing MUCAPE's around
800 J/kg across the central and southeast CWA by mid afternoon,
helping to sustain the storms. VAD wind profile off our radar
showing 55 knots at the 925 mb level, so plenty of wind in the low
levels for the storms to try and bring downward toward the
surface.

.AVIATION...
ISSUED 1155 AM CST Thu Feb 20 2014

Warm front has lifted just north of KSPI/KDEC/KCMI, shifting winds
back around to the south and gusting to around 25-30 knots, while
east winds around 10 knots continue further north. Should see the
front continue to lift northward over the next couple of hours.
Have had some areas of dense fog primarily north of the front, as
a significant increase in low level moisture moves in with the
front, but this is likely to fade out in the next couple hours.
Line of convection starting to form in central Missouri, and will
move east through central Illinois mid to late afternoon. Have
included about a 3 hour period of VCTS at each TAF site for now,
and will update later to narrow down the time frame once the line
becomes more mature. A cold front will pass by shortly behind the
line of storms, switching winds to the west. Still looks like
gusts of 35-45 knots will be likely this evening, as impressive
pressure rises spread across the state in the wake of a deepening
low pressure passage. Wraparound snow showers may spread as far
south as KPIA/KBMI after 06Z. Have maintained the MVFR conditions
through the night, before improvement early Friday morning. Winds
by Friday morning not quite as high, but still gusting in the 30
knot vicinity.

.PREV DISCUSSION...
ISSUED 1010 AM CST Thu Feb 20 2014

Warm frontal boundary is waffling along the I-72 corridor this
morning, with 40s and 50s south and 30s to the north. Most of the
precipitation over the last few hours has been on the cold side of
the storm, especially across the far northwest CWA where
thunderstorms have produced some pea size hail as well. That
particular area has received 1 to 1.5 inches of rain since
yesterday evening. The front extends to parent low pressure along
the Kansas/Missouri border.

Focus remains with the winds, precipitation and temperature
trends. Have sent some zone/grid updates recently to reflect a
period of lower PoP's into early afternoon, and as the front lifts
northward, before the main activity develops toward mid to late
afternoon. Latest Day1 convective outlook pushed the slight risk
back northwest to around Shelbyville, reflective of the slower
arrival of the cold front, with damaging winds still the primary
threat. The cold front should push to around I-57 by sunset and
exit the state shortly after that. The post-frontal period is when
the winds will really start ramping up, as the low experiences
substantial and rapid intensification this afternoon as it moves
into southwest Wisconsin. 3-hour pressure rises of around 10 mb
will push through Missouri late this afternoon and across the CWA
early this evening. Wind gusts outside the storms still look to
reach around 45 mph by late afternoon and 50-60 mph this evening.
