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.

RBURGWhat 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 Dodge City, KS wrote its last area forecast discussion before this severe thunderstorm warning went out at May 9, 7:00 AM CDT, 4 hours earlier.
Area forecast discussion, May 9, 7:00 AM CDT, 4 hours before
AREA FORECAST DISCUSSION NATIONAL WEATHER SERVICE DODGE CITY KS 700 AM CDT SAT MAY 9 2015 ...UPDATED AVIATION DISCUSSION... .SHORT TERM...(TODAY AND TONIGHT) ISSUED AT 444 AM CDT SAT MAY 9 2015 ...SIGNIFICANT SEVERE WEATHER EVENT LIKELY... ALL THE FOCUS IN THE SHORT TERM IS HOW THE CONVECTIVE PICTURE TODAY WILL EVOLVE AND WHAT WILL THE IMPACTS BE. IT SHOULD BE NOTED THAT THERE IS STILL LARGE UNCERTAINTY IN HOW STORMS WILL EVOLVE, SO KEEP UPDATED AS THE FORECAST IS ADJUSTED THROUGH THE DAY. THIS UNCERTAINTY IS REFLECTED IN THE VARIOUS MESOSCALE MODELS THAT ARE ALL OFFERING DIFFERENT SOLUTIONS. HAVE PUT THE THE HRRR ON THE BACK BURNER BECAUSE THIS MODEL HAS BEEN DOING POORLY RECENTLY (I.E. CONVECTION ACROSS OKLAHOMA/TEXAS LAST NIGHT). THE OPERATIONAL NAM HAS BEEN DOING A LITTLE BETTER, SO INFLUENCE FROM THIS MODEL WAS USED. PURELY SUBJECTIVELY, THE WRF-ARW HAS BEEN DOING THE BEST AND POP AND MESOSCALE GUIDANCE WAS HEAVILY BIASED TOWARDS THIS MESOSCALE MODEL. THERE WILL BE TWO ROUNDS OF CONVECTION FOR TODAY. THE FIRST ROUND WILL BE THIS MORNING AS CONVECTION MOVES FROM THE PANHANDLES NORTHWARD TO SOUTHWEST KANSAS. THIS ACTIVITY IS ASSOCIATED WITH WARM AIR ADVECTION AND A VORTMAX SWING THROUGH AHEAD OF THE MAIN SYNOPTIC TROUGH. THUNDERSTORMS THIS MORNING WILL BE STRONG TO PERHAPS MARGINALLY SEVERE. THE MAIN SHOW IS THIS AFTERNOON AND EVENING AS THE SYNOPTIC LOW EJECTS AND THE NOSE OF A 80-90 KT 250-HPA JET MOVES CLOSER. INTENSE LEE CYCLOGENESIS IS EXPECTED WITH A STRONG WIND FIELD AND RESULTANT SHEAR DEVELOPING ACROSS WESTERN KANSAS THROUGH THE DAY. FROM THE WRF-ARW, THINK STORMS WILL REFIRE ALONG THE DRYLINE DURING THE EARLY AFTERNOON ROUGHLY FROM COLBY SOUTHEAST TO LIBERAL. THERE ARE A FEW QUESTIONS THOUGH ABOUT THIS SECOND ROUND. 1) WILL CONVECTION THIS MORNING IMPEDE MOISTURE RETURN BY THE AFTERNOON? 2) HOW MUCH RECOVERY WILL THERE BE IN THE WAKE OF THE FIRST ROUND OF STORMS. MESOSCALE MODELS DO SUGGEST SUFFICIENT INSTABILITY DEVELOPING BY THE AFTERNOON (2500 J/KG SBCAPE). 3) SOMETHING THAT I NOTICED SEVERAL DAYS AGO, FORECAST SKEW-T/LOG-P'S SHOW BACKING OF UPPER LEVEL WINDS. THIS COULD ENCOURAGE HP SUPERCELL (MESSY) STORM TYPE. THERE IS ENOUGH ORTHOGONALITY THOUGH BETWEEN THE DRYLINE AND 850-300 HPA FLOW THAT I EXPECT AT LEAST DISCRETE HP SUPERCELLS. 4) WILL THE WRF-ARW VERIFY OR WILL IT BE WRONG LIKE THE HRRR WAS LAST NIGHT. SO, SEVERAL QUESTIONS THAT WILL NEED TO BE ANSWERED. THE MODERATE RISK FROM SPC ALSO HIGHLIGHTS THE UNCERTAINTY THAT I HAVE. ANYWAY, THE ENVIRONMENT IS PRIMED FOR SIGNIFICANT SEVERE WEATHER. LARGE HAIL (2-3") LOOKS LIKELY FROM THE LARGE HAIL PARAMETER. FOR TORNADOES, SIGNIFICANT TORNADO PARAMETER OF 5-10, 250-300 M2S2 SFC-3 KM SRH, 20-30 KT OF 0-1 BULK SHEAR, AND A LOOPING HODOGRAPHS CLEARLY GIVEN CREDENCE FOR STRONG TORNADOES (PERHAPS A VIOLENT TORNADO SHOULD MESOSCALE STORM DETAILS PLAY OUT CORRECTLY/OFB LAID OUT). THE WRF-ARW ALSO IS FORECASTING UPDRAFT HELICITY, SO CLEARLY THE MODEL IS TRYING TO DEPICT ROTATING STORMS (SUPERCELLS). WITH A COMBINATION OF CAPE AND LOW LEVEL SHEAR, THINK THE BEST AREA FROM TORNADOES IS PROBABLY IN THE GARDEN CITY, MEADE, DODGE CITY, SCOTT CITY AREA THIS AFTERNOON. AGAIN, YOU CAN HAVE ALL THE PERFECT PARAMETERS, BUT IF INSTABILITY IS LACKING DUE TO LINGERING CLOUD COVER FROM AM STORMS... THEN NONE OF THIS WILL MATTER AND THE SEVERE THREAT WILL BE MORE SUBDUED. WILL BE INTERESTING TO SEE HOW THIS PLAYS OUT. LASTLY, SEE THE YOUTUBE VIDEO THAT WAS PUT UP THIS MORNING FOR A GRAPHIC REPRESENTATION OF ALL THIS TECHNICAL TALK ABOVE. .LONG TERM...(SUNDAY THROUGH FRIDAY) ISSUED AT 257 AM CDT SAT MAY 9 2015 BY SUNDAY MORNING, THE UPPER LOW WILL BE OVER THE NORTHEAST CORNER OF COLORADO AND WILL BE LIFTING INTO THE EASTERN DAKOTAS BY SUNDAY EVENING. THE ATTENDANT SURFACE LOW WILL ALSO LIFT NORTHEAST OUT OF THE REGION. EARLY ON, SOME WRAPAROUND SHOWERS WILL BE POSSIBLE OVER WEST CENTRAL KANSAS BUT THESE SHOULD BE ENDING FAIRLY QUICKLY AS THE UPPER LOW MOVES OUT. THROUGH THE REMAINDER OF THE DAY, WESTERN KANSAS WILL BE UNDER CYCLONIC MID LEVEL FLOW IN THE WAKE OF THE UPPER LOW. COOLER, DRIER AIR WILL BE SPREADING INTO THE AREA BUT WE SHOULD SEE PERIODS OF CLOUDS ALONG WITH BREEZY CONDITIONS ESPECIALLY WITH MAX HEATING DURING THE DAY. LOW LEVEL COLD ADVECTION CONTINUES INTO SUNDAY NIGHT WHICH SHOULD KEEP WINDS UP SOMEWHAT ACROSS THE AREA. TEMPERATURES SHOULD FALL INTO THE MID 30S OVER WESTERN SECTIONS OF THE AREA...ALONG THE COLORADO BORDER. IF WINDS BECOME LIGHT ENOUGH LATE SUNDAY NIGHT, FROST COULD BE A POSSIBILITY. THE BEGINNING OF THE WORKWEEK SHOULD BE FAIRLY QUIET WEATHER-WISE AS AN UPPER LEVEL RIDGE BUILDS INTO THE CENTRAL CONUS AND SURFACE HIGH PRESSURE DOMINATES THE REGION. BY TUESDAY, ANOTHER UPPER LEVEL TROUGH WILL BE MOVING ONSHORE OVER THE WEST COAST WITH INCREASING SOUTHWESTERLY FLOW ALOFT OVER THE PLAINS AS THE AXIS OF THE UPPER RIDGE MOVES EAST. AS A RESULT, LEE SIDE TROUGHING WILL DEVELOP OVER EASTERN COLORADO WITH THE INCREASING SOUTHERLY FLOW PULLING LOW LEVEL MOISTURE BACK NORTH FROM THE SOUTHERN PLAINS. THE GFS AND ECMWF BOTH SHOW A SHORTWAVE TROUGH LIFTING OUT OF THE DESERT SOUTHWEST INTO THE CENTRAL CONUS AROUND WEDNESDAY AND THURSDAY. THE 00Z RUN OF BOTH MODELS IS IN SOMEWHAT BETTER AGREEMENT THAN PREVIOUS RUNS. WHILE THERE IS STILL SOME UNCERTAINTY AS WHERE LOW LEVEL FEATURES WILL BE TO HELP FOCUS THUNDERSTORM DEVELOPMENT, THERE IS SOME POTENTIAL FOR SIGNIFICANT RAINFALL ACROSS SOUTH CENTRAL AND PARTS OF SOUTHWEST KANSAS AROUND THURSDAY. CHANCES FOR THUNDERSTORMS SHOULD CONTINUE OVER PARTS OF THE AREA INTO DAY SEVEN AS SOUTHWESTERLY FLOW ALOFT CONTINUES OVER THE CENTRAL PLAINS WHILE LOW LEVEL MOISTURE CONTINUES TO STREAM NORTH INTO KANSAS. && .AVIATION...(FOR THE 12Z TAFS THROUGH 12Z SUNDAY MORNING) ISSUED AT 658 AM CDT SAT MAY 9 2015 IFR TO LIFR CONDITIONS IN LOW STRATUS ALONG WITH DRIZZLE AND MIST WILL PREVAIL AT THE TERMINALS THROUGH THE EARLY PART OF THIS PERIOD. SCATTERED SHOWERS AND THUNDERSTORMS WILL BE POSSIBLE THROUGH THE MID TO LATE MORNING HOURS AND AGAIN LATER THIS AFTERNOON AND EVENING. THE AFTERNOON AND EVENING STORMS COULD BE ACCOMPANIED WITH LARGE HAIL AND 40-50 KNOT WIND GUSTS. VFR CONDITIONS SHOULD SPREAD NORTHEAST ACROSS WESTERN AND CENTRAL KANSAS LATE IN THE PERIOD. && .PRELIMINARY POINT TEMPS/POPS...
