The radar
The Boston radar (KBOX), 57 km from the middle of the area, began a volume at 17:06 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
Brookhaven, NY (KOKX), launched 12:00Z, 5.1 hours before the alert went out and 141 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.

AREA FORECAST DISCUSSION
NATIONAL WEATHER SERVICE TAUNTON MA
1047 AM EDT WED JUL 1 2015
.SYNOPSIS...
A FRONTAL SYSTEM WILL BRING SHOWERS...AND A CHANCE FOR STRONG TO
SEVERE THUNDERSTORMS...INTO THIS AFTERNOON. THIS FRONT STALLS
NEAR THE SOUTH COAST THURSDAY...BEFORE MOVING OFFSHORE THURSDAY
NIGHT. ASIDE FROM A SPOT SHOWER POSSIBLE SATURDAY...MAINLY DRY AND
SEASONABLE WEATHER IS EXPECTED INTO EARLY NEXT WEEK.
&&
.NEAR TERM /UNTIL 6 PM THIS EVENING/...
1045 AM UPDATE...
LAST OF THE SHOWERS AND THUNDERSTORMS ASSOCD WITH MID LEVEL
SHORTWAVE AND LARGE SCALE LIFT MOVING ACROSS THE CAPE/ISLANDS AND
WILL EXIT OFFSHORE AFTER 11 AM. WARM FRONT APPEARS TO BE LOCATED
ALONG THE CT COAST AND WILL BE LIFTING N ACROSS THE REGION
THROUGH THIS AFTERNOON. THE MAIN CONCERN FOR THIS AFTERNOON IS
THE POTENTIAL FOR ADDITIONAL SHOWERS AND THUNDERSTORMS AHEAD OF AN
APPROACHING COLD FRONT.
SATELLITE LOOP SHOWS CLEAR SLOT ALONG AND SOUTH OF LI SOUND
MOVING EAST AND THERE ARE BREAKS IN THE CLOUDS DEVELOPING ACROSS
NJ AND SE NY. CROSS SECTIONS SHOW ENOUGH DRYING SO WE DO EXPECT AT
LEAST PARTIAL SUNSHINE TO DEVELOP THIS AFTERNOON. MODELS DO
GENERATE DECENT INSTABILITY WITH SBCAPES 1000-1500 J/KG AND SPC
MESOANALYSIS SHOWS SBCAPE 500-1000 J/KG ACROSS CT INTO SE NY.
MID LEVEL LAPSE RATES ARE DECENT...UP TO 6.5 C/KM. SO WE DO
EXPECT SCT SHOWERS/TSTMS TO REDEVELOP IN WESTERN NEW ENG THIS
AFTERNOON AND MOVE EAST. THERE IS OVERALL DRYING IN THE COLUMN AS
PWATS AND KI DROP WHICH IS A NEGATIVE FACTOR BUT THERE IS STILL
SUFFICIENT MOISTURE AND INSTABILITY FOR SCT CONVECTION PER THE
HI-RES MODELS. BEST DEEP LAYER SHEAR WILL BE MOVING TO THE EAST
BUT STILL 35-40 KT WHICH IS PLENTY FOR ORGANIZED CONVECTION AND
THE POTENTIAL FOR SEVERE WEATHER. LOW LEVEL SHEAR IS DECREASING SO
MAIN THREAT WITH ANY STORMS WILL BE DAMAGING WIND AND
HAIL...MAINLY IN THE INTERIOR.
HIGHS WILL BE MOSTLY IN THE MID/UPPER 70S WITH LOWER 80S IN THE
CT VALLEY.
&&
.SHORT TERM /6 PM THIS EVENING THROUGH 6 PM THURSDAY/...
A FEW LEFTOVER SHOWERS...AND PERHAPS A THUNDERSTORM OR TWO...ARE
STILL POSSIBLE EARLY THIS EVENING. OTHERWISE EXPECTING DRY
CONDITIONS FOR MOST OF TONIGHT. A COLD FRONT WILL BE SLOWLY
CROSSING OUR REGION TONIGHT...LIKELY STALLING NEAR THE SOUTH COAST
OF NEW ENGLAND FOR A TIME LATE TONIGHT INTO THURSDAY. LATEST
GUIDANCE CONTINUES TO ADVERTISE A DRY ATMOSPHERE...SO EXPECTING
MOST OF THURSDAY.
&&
.LONG TERM /THURSDAY NIGHT THROUGH TUESDAY/...
HIGHLIGHTS...
* SEASONABLE TO SLIGHTLY ABOVE SEASONABLE TEMPERATURES EXPECTED.
* LOW CHANCE OF A SHOWER MAINLY ON THE 4TH.
OVERVIEW AND MODEL PREFERENCES...MODELS CONTINUE TO INDICATE A SHIFT
IN THE OVERALL PATTERN FROM A HIGHLY AMPLIFIED REGIME TO ONE THAT IS
MORE PROGRESSIVE AND ZONAL. THIS IS IN SPITE OF THE FAIRLY ROBUST
RIDGES IN PLACE ACROSS THE E PACIFIC AND THE BERMUDA HIGH N OF THE
ANTILLES. ALTHOUGH THIS MORE ZONAL FLOW PATTERN DOES TAKE ON A
LONGWAVE TROF FEATURE BETWEEN THE TWO RIDGES...IT IS NOT OVERLY
DEEP/SHARP. THIS ALLOWS THE RIDGING ASSOCIATED WITH THE BERMUDA
HIGH TO BECOME THE DOMINANT PLAYER FOR OUR SENSIBLE WX INTO EARLY
NEXT WEEK. AT THIS POINT A MUCH DEEPER NRN STREAM VORTEX WILL BE IN
PLAY...AND WILL TRANSITION THE DRIER AND MORE STABLE REGIME ACROSS
THE NE CONUS TO A MORE UNSETTLED PATTERN. THE ONLY FLY IN THE
OINTMENT IS ON THE 4TH UNFORTUNATELY...BUT MORE ON THAT BELOW.
DETAILS...
THU NIGHT INTO FRI...THE FIRST IN A SERIES OF MID LVL RIDGES WILL
BE MOVING THROUGH THE ZONAL FLOW PATTERN DURING THIS PERIOD. THIS
INTRODUCES A MAINLY DRY PERIOD WITH WEAK HIGH PRES IN PLACE ACROSS
SRN NEW ENGLAND. THERE REMAINS A FRONT STALLED TO THE S...WITH
SOME UPPER LVL MOISTURE SUGGESTING SOME PARTLY CLOUDY CONDITIONS.
OTHERWISE...H85 TEMPS BETWEEN +10C AND +12C SUGGEST HIGHS NEAR TO
SLIGHTLY ABOVE SEASONAL NORMALS ACROSS THE REGION AWAY FROM THE
COAST WERE SEA BREEZES ARE LIKELY.
FRI NIGHT INTO SAT NIGHT...WITH THIS NEARLY ZONAL FLOW IN
PLACE...IT/S NOT JUST RIDGING...BUT WEAK SHORTWAVES TO CONCERN
OURSELVES WITH. MODELS CONTINUE TO INDICATE A WEAK PACKET OF
ENERGY PASSING THROUGH THE REGION DURING THE EARLY WEEKEND. THE
OVERALL COLUMN IS RELATIVELY DRY...WITH PWATS NEAR NORMAL FOR
EARLY JULY. HOWEVER...WITH THE FRONT STALLED TO THE S...THE
DEVELOPMENT OF A WEAK WAVE OF LOW PRES COULD BRING ABOUT MODEST
LIFT ALONG THE SRN TIER OF SRN NEW ENGLAND DURING THE DAY SAT.
THERE ARE TWO CAMPS HERE...GFS AND SOME ENSEMBLE MEMBERS WITH QPF
ACROSS THE REGION...AND THE ECMWF AND OTHER ENSEMBLE MEMBERS
WITHOUT. THEREFORE...CONFIDENCE NOT HIGH ON PRECIP CHANCES...BUT
IT IS LIKELY TO NOT BE A WASHOUT IN EITHER CASE GIVEN HOW WEAK THE
WAVE IS AND THE LACK OF MOISTURE. JUST A FEW PASSING SHOWERS TO
CONTEND WITH.
SUN INTO MON...AS DEEP ER WAVE FORMS ACROSS THE CANADIAN PRAIRIE
LANDS...A SECONDARY RIDGE WILL AMPLIFY IN RESPONSE TO WARM
ADVECTION FROM THE BERMUDA HIGH TO THE SE. THIS WILL YIELD ANOTHER
PERIOD OF DRIER AND WARMER CONDITIONS ACROSS SRN NEW ENGLAND.
BETTER CHANCES FOR TEMPS INCHING ABOVE NORMAL DURING THIS
STRETCH...THANKS TO MORE INFLUENCE FROM THE SE.
TOWARD MID WEEK...THE AFOREMENTIONED WAVE WILL BEGIN A SLIDE TO
THE E. THIS PARTICULAR FEATURE IS MORE ROBUST THAN PREVIOUS
WAVES...SO IT/S LIKELY A PERIOD OF WETTER AND UNSETTLED WX WILL
RETURN BY THE MID PORTION OF NEXT WEEK. UNCERTAINTY IN EXACT
TIMING.

ISSUED SCA FOR NE MA COASTAL WATERS IN RESPONSE TO SE GUSTS TO 25
KT WHICH WILL LIKELY PERSIST THROUGH MID AFTERNOON BEFORE
DIMINISHING A BIT AND SHIFTING TO S.
WINDS AND SEAS WILL INCREASE IN RESPONSE TO A FRONTAL SYSTEM
APPROACHING THE WATERS LATER TODAY. SMALL CRAFT ADVISORIES HAVE
BEEN EXTENDED FOR THE SOUTHERN OUTER WATERS AND RHODE ISLAND AND
BLOCK ISLAND SOUNDS.
OUTLOOK...THURSDAY NIGHT THROUGH SUNDAY...
THU NIGHT INTO FRI...HIGH CONFIDENCE. WEAK RIDGE OF HIGH PRES WILL
BE MOVING OVER THE WATERS THROUGH THE PERIOD. ANY LINGERING SWELL
ABOVE 5 FT WILL RECEDE OVERNIGHT WITH QUIET BOATING WX EXPECTED
THROUGH THE REST OF FRI.
SAT AND SUNDAY...MODERATE CONFIDENCE. THIS PERIOD WILL BE
DEPENDENT ON HOW CLOSELY A WEAK WAVE OF LOW PRES PASSES TO THE S
COAST ON SAT. IF IT PASSES CLOSE ENOUGH...A PERIOD OF SWELLS
EXCEEDING 5 FT IS POSSIBLE. OTHERWISE...MAINLY QUIET BOATING
WEATHER WILL CONTINUE ESPECIALLY AS HIGH PRES RETURNS SUNDAY.
