Did it verify
Not verified. The Iowa Environmental Mesonet's Cow found no qualifying storm report inside this tornado 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.

AREA FORECAST DISCUSSION...UPDATED
NATIONAL WEATHER SERVICE JACKSON MS
1044 AM CDT MON OCT 13 2014
..SEVERE STORMS EXPECTED LATER TODAY INTO THIS EVENING...
.UPDATE...EXPECTED SEVERE WEATHER EVENT STILL LOOKS TO OCCUR BUT
TIMING HAS BEEN MOVED UP JUST A FEW HOURS THAN HOW IT LOOKED OVER
THE WEEKEND. THE SQUALL LINE IS KNOCKING ON OUR WESTERN DOORSTEP AS
I TYPE WITH SOME WARM ADVECTION SHOWERS/STORMS BEGINNING TO DEVELOP
AHEAD OF THIS LINE IN VARIOUS PARTS OF THE CWA. THE MAIN CONCERN
CONTINUES TO BE WITH THE DAMAGING WIND POTENTIAL(A WIDESPREAD TYPE
OF EVENT) WITH THE LINE. 0-3KM SHEAR VECTORS CONTINUE TO ORIENTED
SOUTHWEST TO NORTHEAST SO ANY PORTION OF THE LINE/BOWING SEGMENT
THAT PUSHES THAT DIRECTION WILL HAVE A BETTER CHANCE OF PRODUCING
STRONGER WINDS/TORNADOES. TORNADOES WILL CONTINUE TO BE A CONCERN
BUT BACKING OF WINDS IN THE 10-20KFT RANGE WILL BRING SOME
UNCERTAINTY AS TO HOW BIG OF A THREAT THIS REALLY IS.
HOWEVER...GIVEN 300-400M2/S2 HELICITIES RIGHT AHEAD OF THE LINE AND
ACTIVITY DEVELOPING IN PEAK HEATING...THIS IS STILL A CONCERN. FLASH
FLOOD WATCH REMAINS VALID FOR THE DELTA. FLOODING IS NOT A BIG
CONCERN AS THE LINE SHOULD MOVE FAIRLY QUICKLY BUT GIVEN RECENT
RAINS IN THE DELTA...THIS ADDITIONAL RAIN WONT HELP ANY ISSUES.
WINDS ARE ALREADY PRETTY WINDY IN THE DELTA WITH SOME SUSTAINED
WINDS AROUND 20-25MPH AND GUSTS TO 30MPH. WILL KEEP THE WIND
ADVISORY IN TACK FOR GRADIENT WIND AHEAD OF THE LINE. REST OF THE
FORECAST IS IN DECENT SHAPE AND MADE SOME ADJUSTMENTS BASED ON
CURRENT TRENDS. TEMPERATURES ARE RUNNING IN THE UPPER 70S AND LOWER
80S ALREADY THIS MORNING THANKS TO STRONG SOUTHERLY WINDS. MANY
LOCATIONS WILL EASILY REACH THE MID AND UPPER 80S...ESPECIALLY
FURTHER EAST AND ANY LOCATION THAT CAN SEE ANY BREAKS IN THE CLOUDS
AND SEE BETTER INSOLATION. /28/
&&
.AVIATION...ISSUES THIS MORNING AND AHEAD OF THE SQUALL LINE WILL BE
WITH MVFR CEILINGS AND STRONG SUSTAINED WINDS AND GUSTS. LOOK FOR
THE CEILINGS TO IMPROVE TO VFR...BUT COULD BOUNCE BACK TO MVFR AT
TIMES. S/SE WINDS WILL BE SUSTAINED AT 17-25 KTS WITH GUSTS OF
30-35KTS. HIGHEST GUSTS WILL BE ACROSS THE MS DELTA (GLH/GWO). LOOK
FOR THE SQUALL LINE TO BE TIMED EASIER...BUT THE DEVELOPMENT OF
PRE-LINE ACTIVITY WILL BE MUCH TOUGHER TO TIME. SEVERE STORMS ARE
EXPECTED SO HIGHER END WINDS/SITE RESTRICTIONS ARE POSSIBLE WHEN
IMPACTED BY A STORM. /CME/
&&
.PREV DISCUSSION... /ISSUED 438 AM CDT MON OCT 13 2014/
.SHORT TERM...TODAY THROUGH TONIGHT...SEVERE STORMS ARE LIKELY TODAY
ACROSS THE ARKLAMISS. A DEEP UPPER TROUGH AND ASSOCIATED SURFACE
LOW/COLD FRONT EXTEND ACROSS THE SOUTHERN PLAINS EARLY THIS MORNING
AND WILL CONTINUE TO MOVE EAST AND WILL EXTEND FROM ARKANSAS INTO
LOUISIANA BY EARLY AFTERNOON. THE WIND FIELDS WILL INCREASE LATER
THIS MORNING OUT AHEAD OF THE BOUNDARY WITH 40-50KTS AT H850 IN THE
DELTA. THE GFS CONTINUES TO SUGGEST 40-50KTS OF BULK SHEAR AND 0-3
STORM RELATIVE HELICITIES VALUES RANGING FROM 350-450 M^2/S^2. THE
MODELS SUGGEST PLENTY OF INSTABILITY WITH 6.5-7.0 C/KM LAPSE RATES
AND ML CAPES OF 1200-1600 J/KG. THERE WILL ALSO BE PLENTY OF
MOISTURE WITH PWATS AROUND 1.8-2.0 INCHES AND DEWPOINTS UP NEAR 70
DEGREES ALONG OUT AHEAD OF THE BOUNDARY. WITH ALL OF THIS SAID IT
CONTINUES TO LOOK LIKE THE POTENTIAL FOR A QLCS WITH BOW ECHOES AND
SOME SUPERCELLS ACROSS MUCH OF THE AREA THIS AFTERNOON THROUGH THE
EVENING. SPC HAS UPGRADED THE DELTA PORTIONS OF THE AREA TO A
MODERATE RISK WITH A 10% HATCHED TORNADO AREA. DUE TO THIS HAVE
UPGRADED OUR GRAPHICASTS AND HWO TO A HIGH THREAT CATEGORY FOR MUCH
OF THE DELTA.
OTHER IMPACTS TO THE AREA WILL BE GRADIENT WINDS OUT AHEAD OF THE
FRONT WITH GUSTS TO NEAR 40MPH POSSIBLE IN THE DELTA SO A WIND
ADVISORY HAS BEEN ISSUED FOR THESE AREAS. HAVE ALSO ISSUED A FLASH
FLOOD WATCH FOR THE NORTHERN PORTIONS OF THE AREA WHERE 3-4 INCHES
OF RAIN HAS ALREADY FALLEN AND SOME OF THE SAME AREAS COULD RECEIVE
ANOTHER 2-4 INCHES OF RAINFALL THIS AFTERNOON AND EVENING.
THE SEVERE RISK WILL SHIFT TO AREAS ALONG AND EAST OF THE I-55
CORRIDOR BY 6PM OR SO AND EVENTUALLY END BY LATE EVENING AS THE
BOUNDARY MOVES EAST OF OUR AREA. SOME SHOWERS WILL LINGER IN THE
EAST DURING THE EARLY OVERNIGHT HOURS ALONG WITH COOLER TEMPERATURES
FILTERING IN BEHIND THE BOUNDARY. /15/
LONG TERM...TUESDAY THROUGH THIS WEEKEND...THE SYSTEM DRIVING
THUNDERSTORM PRODUCTION TODAY INTO TONIGHT WILL CLOSE OFF IN THE
UPPER LEVELS...WITH THE SOUTHERN EXTENT OF THE CLOSED LOW SLOWLY
PASSING EAST ACROSS THE REGION TUESDAY THROUGH AT LEAST MIDDAY
WEDNESDAY. THE PACIFIC-TYPE COLD FRONT ASSOCIATED WITH THIS SYSTEM
WILL HAVE CLEARED TO THE EAST OF OUR REGION BY DAYBREAK WEDNESDAY
BUT THERE SHOULD BE ENOUGH MID LEVEL MOISTURE WRAPPING AROUND THE
CLOSED LOW TO BRING A RISK FOR A FEW SHOWERS TO AT LEAST NORTHERN
ZONES THROUGH THE DAY. THESE CLOUDS WILL ALSO HELP HOLD HIGH
TEMPERATURES SOME 5-10 DEGREES BELOW NORMAL...WHICH WILL BE A
WELCOME CHANGE IN COMPARISON TO HEAT WE HAVE BEEN EXPERIENCING
LATELY.
ANY SHOWERS ON WEDNESDAY SHOULD BE LIMITED TO THE GOLDEN TRIANGLE
AREA WHILE SUNSHINE WILL BE MORE IN ABUNDANCE FOR THE ENTIRE REGION.
TEMPERATURES WILL BE CREEPING BACK TOWARD NORMAL LEVELS...BUT STILL
PLEASANT.
FURTHER MODERATION OF TEMPERATURES IS ANTICIPATED THROUGH THE REST
OF THE WEEK AS THE CLOSED LOW PULLS AWAY AND THE NORTHERN EDGE OF
SUBTROPICAL RIDGING ENCROACHES FROM THE SOUTH. TEMPERATURES WILL
WARM BACK TO AT LEAST SLIGHTLY ABOVE NORMAL LEVELS ONCE AGAIN. MODEL
CONSENSUS SHOWS POTENTIAL FOR A WEAK FRONT TO COME INTO THE AREA
SOMETIME THIS WEEKEND...WITH THE BOUNDARY PERHAPS HANGING AROUND TO
SPUR SOME SHOWERS AND STORMS BY EARLY NEXT WEEK. AT THIS POINT THE
ODDS OF RAIN IN LATTER PORTION OF THE 7 DAY FORECAST ARE TOO LOW TO
INCLUDE MUCH OFFICIAL MENTION. /BB/
