What was reported inside it

Jul 27, 5:40 PM EDT	HAIL 1.75	3 N Whitley City, KY

Local storm reports filed while the alert was in force, from inside its polygon or its counties.

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.

The watch it was issued in

What forecasters said that day

The local office's own words before this tornado warning went out, as it sent them, from the Iowa Environmental Mesonet's archive of National Weather Service text.

NWS Jackson, KY wrote its last area forecast discussion before this tornado warning went out at Jul 27, 4:41 PM EDT, 29 minutes earlier.

Area forecast discussion, Jul 27, 4:41 PM EDT, 29 minutes before

AREA FORECAST DISCUSSION...CORRECTED
NATIONAL WEATHER SERVICE JACKSON KY
441 PM EDT SUN JUL 27 2014

.SHORT TERM...(THIS EVENING THROUGH MONDAY NIGHT)
ISSUED AT 440 PM EDT SUN JUL 27 2014

SEVERE WEATHER EVENT WAS ONGOING DURING THE AFTERNOON. MAIN THREAT
HAS BEEN LARGE HAIL...WITH REPORTS UP TO SOFTBALL SIZE SO FAR. MODELS
HAVE NOT HANDLED THE CONVECTIVE DEVELOPMENT WELL AT ALL TODAY. HAVE
HIGHLIGHTED THE CURRENT RADAR ACTIVITY FOR HIGH POPS...BLENDING TO
POPS FOR TONIGHT WHICH ARE HIGHEST IN THE SOUTHEAST...WHERE THE
THREAT OF PRECIP PERSISTS THE LONGEST TONIGHT BEFORE STABILIZATION
TAKES PLACE FROM NW TO SE. SEVERE WX THREAT WILL PERSIST INTO THIS
EVENING...WITH STRONG INSTABILITY AND AMPLE SHEAR. THE SHEAR WILL
BECOME LESS DIRECTIONAL AND MORE SPEED AS TIME GOES BY. IN
ADDITION...VERY DRY AIR WILL BE PRESENT IN THE MID LEVELS. THESE
FACTORS WOULD SUGGEST HAIL CONTINUING TO BE THE MOST SIGNIFICANT
THREAT. HOWEVER...WITH STORMS BEING MORE SURFACE BASED LATE IN THE
DAY NOW...WINDS AND EVEN TORNADOES STILL NEED TO BE CONSIDERED.

THE SURFACE COLD FRONT WILL PASS SOUTHEAST OUT OF OUR AREA OVERNIGHT.
RESIDUAL LOW LEVEL MOISTURE WILL STILL BE GETTING SCOURED AWAY ON
MONDAY. FORECAST SOUNDINGS WOULD STILL ALLOW FOR SOME SHOWERS TO POP
UP ON MONDAY AFTERNOON AND INTO THE EVENING. THIS WOULD BE MORE
PROBABLE IN THE NE PART OF THE AREA WHERE MID LEVEL TEMPS WILL BE
COOLEST. MID LEVEL TEMPS MAY PREVENT ANY PRECIP IN OUR FAR SW...AND
WILL LIKELY PREVENT THUNDER ELSEWHERE. ANY PRECIP WILL DIE OUT MONDAY
NIGHT AS HEATING IS LOST AND THE MID LEVEL CAP STRENGTHENS.

.LONG TERM...(TUESDAY THROUGH SUNDAY)
ISSUED AT 256 PM EDT SUN JUL 27 2014

THE MODELS START OUT IN VERY GOOD AGREEMENT WITH AN UPPER LOW OVER
HUDSON BAY WITH AN UPPER TROUGH EXTENDING SOUTH ACROSS WEST VIRGINIA
TO FLORIDA. THERE IS AN UPPER HIGH CENTER OVER WEST TEXAS WITH AN
UPPER RIDGE EXTENDING INTO ALBERTA. AT THE SURFACE...THE BACK END OF
THE PREVIOUS SYSTEM WILL ALREADY BE THROUGH THE AREA. THE UPPER LOW
WILL STAY QUASI STATIONARY AND WITH TIME THE UPPER TROUGH RETROGRADES
A LITTLE TO THE WEST. THIS TYPE OF PATTERN IS CONDUCIVE FOR MCS
DEVELOPMENT TO POSSIBLY THEN MOVE ACROSS THE AREA AS SHORT WAVES MOVE
DOWN THE BACK SIDE OF THE UPPER TROUGH. WITH THIS UPPER HIGH IN
PLACE...THE SEASONABLY COOL WEATHER CONTINUES FOR THE GREAT LAKES AND
THE OHIO VALLEY...WHILE IT WILL BE SWELTERING AND DRY OUT WEST.
THE MODELS ARE IN GOOD AGREEMENT...SO PRETTY MUCH WENT WITH THE MODEL
BLEND AND THEN MADE SOME CORRECTION DUE TO ELEVATION DIFFERENCES. ON
THE DAYS THUNDERSTORMS ARE FORECAST...THE STORMS WILL BE MOSTLY DURING THE
AFTERNOON AND EARLY EVENING.

&&

.AVIATION...(FOR THE 12Z TAFS THROUGH 12Z MONDAY MORNING)
ISSUED AT 753 AM EDT SUN JUL 27 2014

A CLUSTER OF SHOWERS AND THUNDERSTORMS CONTINUES TO DEVELOP ACROSS
SOUTH CENTRAL INDIANA AND CENTRAL KY...MOVING EAST AND SOUTHEAST.
THESE STORMS HAVE SHOWN A DIMINISHING TREND AS THEY HEAD INTO THE
JACKSON CWA...BUT SOME LIGHTNING AND LIGHT RAIN SHOWERS ARE STILL
PRESENT ACROSS THE SOUTHWEST CWA. EXPECT SOME LIGHT RAIN AND MAYBE A
FEW LIGHTNING STRIKES AND RUMBLES OF THUNDER AT THE TAF SITES OVER
THE NEXT FEW HOURS. CIGS SEEM TO BE MAINTAINING VFR STATUS /OR
BORDERLINE MVFR/...AND RAIN SEEMS TO BE LIGHT ENOUGH THAT LITTLE
RESTRICTIONS TO VSBY ARE EXPECTED.

MAIN FOCUS FOR TAF PERIOD WILL BE THIS AFTERNOON. MODELS ARE STILL
POINTING AT AN EVENT THAT IS RARE FOR EASTERN KY IN JULY. LITTLE
CHANGES WERE MADE TO THE 06Z TAFS FOR THIS AFTERNOON AS THEY SEEM TO
HAVE A GOOD GENERAL IDEA ON THE POTENTIAL THREATS. EXPECTING MOSTLY
MVFR CIGS AND VSBY FOR THE AREA...HOWEVER SOME OF STRONGER STORMS
COULD BE CAPABLE OF DROPPING THE VSBY TO AROUND A MILE AND PRODUCE
WIND GUSTS OF 40 TO 50 KTS. THERE IS ALSO THE THREAT OF SOME LARGE
DAMAGING HAIL WITH ANY THUNDERSTORM THAT DEVELOPS...WHICH WAS
INCLUDED IN THE TAFS AS WELL. KEPT THE TEMPO GROUP IN THE TAFS TO
REFLECT THE MOST LIKELY TIMES THAT THE STORMS WILL BE IN THE
AREA...HOWEVER THUNDERSTORMS ARE POSSIBLE ANYTIME BY LATE THIS
MORNING AND THROUGH THIS EVENING. WE WILL CONTINUE TO MONITOR THE
DEVELOPING SITUATION AND MAKE UPDATES FOR THE TAF SITES AS NEEDED
ONCE STORMS BEGIN INITIATING.
