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.

AREA FORECAST DISCUSSION
NATIONAL WEATHER SERVICE BISMARCK ND

.SHORT TERM...(THIS EVENING THROUGH SUNDAY)
ISSUED AT 340 PM CDT SAT MAY 16 2015

CONCERNS THIS FORECAST PERIOD INCLUDE SEVERE WEATHER POSSIBILITY
AND HEAVY RAIN. BY THE END OF THE SHORT TERM THE TRANSITION TO
MUCH COOLER WEATHER WITH SOME SNOW BEGINS TO BE SEEN.

AT 230 PM CDT...SURFACE LOW PRESSURE WAS CENTERED NEAR NORTHWEST
SOUTH DAKOTA WITH AN EAST WEST WARM FRONTAL BOUNDARY EXTENDED
ACROSS NORTH CENTRAL SOUTH DAKOTA. FLOW OVER THE WARM FRONT WAS
GENERATING SHOWERS AND SCATTERED THUNDERSTORMS FROM MOBRIDGE NORTH
TO NEAR MINOT AND NORTH TO THE CANADIAN BORDER.

CONCERNING SEVERE WEATHER POTENTIAL...AN 18Z KBIS SOUNDINGS WAS
CONDUCTED. HRRR FORECAST CAPE VALUES IN THE NEIGHBORHOOD OF 2000
ARE FORECAST TO POOL ACROSS SOUTH CENTRAL INTO SOUTHEAST NORTH
DAKOTA LATE THIS AFTERNOON AND EVENING. EXPECT THE SEVERE WEATHER
POTENTIAL TO EXTEND FROM BISMARCK EAST. TO THE WEST EXPECT MORE
ELEVATED THUNDERSTORMS.

SOUTH DAKOTA THEN TRACKS NORTHEAST AND SPREADS A LARGE AREA OF THE
RAINSHOWERS ACROSS THE EAST HALF OF THE STATE AND ESPECIALLY THE
JAMES RIVER VALLEY. ACROSS THE NORTH CENTRAL...COOLER AIR WILL
BEGIN A RAIN/SNOW CHANGE OVER. AS THE SURFACE LOW WRAPS UP NORTH

PRECIPITATION ACROSS PORTIONS OF CENTRAL AND EASTERN NORTH DAKOTA.
AS THE LOW PROPAGATES EASTWARD SUNDAY NIGHT INTO MONDAY...COLD
AIR WILL WRAP IN FROM THE NORTH. A STEADY RAIN WILL TRANSITION TO
SNOW FROM NORTHWEST TO SOUTHEAST SUNDAY NIGHT. IN ADDITION TO
TRANSITIONING RAIN TO SNOW...STRONG COLD AIR ADVECTION AND A STEEP
PRESSURE GRADIENT WILL PRODUCE GUSTY NORTHWEST WINDS AROUND 35
MPH.

THE 12 UTC GFS/ECMWF/SREF/GEM ARE IN GOOD AGREEMENT WITH RESPECT
TO PRECIPITATION AMOUNTS AND TEMPERATURES. THEREFORE...UTILIZED A
BLEND OF THE OPERATIONAL MODELS. THIS GENERALLY YIELDED LIQUID
PRECIPITATION AMOUNTS AROUND HALF AN INCH AND SNOW AMOUNTS AROUND
1 OR 2 INCHES SUNDAY NIGHT INTO MONDAY. WITH TEMPERATURES HOVERING
NEAR FREEZING...ROAD TEMPERATURES COULD BE WARM ENOUGH TO LIMIT
NEGATIVE IMPACTS TO TRAVEL. FROST AND TEMPERATURES IN THE 20S AND
LOW 30S ARE LIKELY SUNDAY NIGHT AND MONDAY NIGHT.

DRY...WITH FREQUENT RAIN CHANCES ACROSS SOUTH DAKOTA.
