What was reported inside it

Time	Report	Where	Remark
May 19, 6:09 PM CDT	HAIL 1	Antelope, TX	QUARTER SIZE HAIL IN ANTELOPE

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 nearest sounding before it

Fort Worth, TX (KFWD), launched 12:00Z, 10.6 hours before the alert went out and 119 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.

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 Fort Worth, TX wrote its last area forecast discussion before this tornado warning went out at May 19, 3:50 PM CDT, 1 hour 43 minutes earlier.

Area forecast discussion, May 19, 3:50 PM CDT, 1 hour 43 minutes before

AREA FORECAST DISCUSSION...CORRECTED
NATIONAL WEATHER SERVICE FORT WORTH TX
350 PM CDT TUE MAY 19 2015

CORRECTED FIRST LINE IN 4TH PARAGRAPH

.DISCUSSION...
DUE TO PERSISTENT LOW CLOUDS...AFTERNOON TEMPERATURES ARE
GENERALLY COOLER THAN 24 HOURS EARLIER. BUT WITH DEW POINTS AROUND
70F AND LITTLE TO NO INHIBITION...CONVECTIVE CELLS HAVE DEVELOPED
ACROSS NORTH AND CENTRAL TEXAS IN SIMILAR FASHION. MLCAPE VALUES
HAVE SOARED ABOVE 2000J/KG IN MANY AREAS SOUTH OF THE I-20
CORRIDOR...WITH VALUES APPROACHING 2500J/KG IN FAR SOUTHERN ZONES
WHERE TEMPS HAVE REACHED THE MID 80S. PW VALUES NEARLY 2 INCHES IN
THESE AREAS WILL ASSURE CONSIDERABLE PRECIP LOADING IN STRONG
UPDRAFTS. DESPITE MORE PROGRESSIVE MOVEMENT TODAY...THIS SHOULD
RESULT IN A FEW DOWNBURSTS...A SUBSET OF WHICH MAY REACH SEVERE
LIMITS AT THE SURFACE. SPEED SHEAR IS RATHER ORDINARY...BUT THE
DIRECTIONAL SHEAR IN THE LOWEST 3KM IS SUFFICIENT TO ROTATE THESE
STRONG UPDRAFTS. IN HIGH-INSTABILITY ENVIRONMENTS...TORNADOES CAN
OCCUR WITH THESE MINI-SUPERCELLS. ALTHOUGH THE LOW-LEVEL FLOW
REMAINS WEAK...IT HAS RECOVERED ENOUGH TO PREVENT THE SLOW-MOVING
MEANDERING STORMS WE ENCOUNTERED ON MONDAY. NONETHELESS...THE
FLOOD THREAT WILL CONTINUE WITH HIGH PRECIPITATION EFFICIENCY AND
SATURATED SOILS. CREEKS AND STREAMS...AS WELL AS MAIN-STEM
RIVERS...REMAIN PRONE TO FLOOD.

NORTH OF I-20...TEMPERATURES ARE STRUGGLING TO REACH 80 DEGREES.
THIS IS LIMITING INSTABILITY TO VALUES UNDER 1500J/KG. BUT IN
FAR NORTHERN ZONES...WHERE A PASSING SHORTWAVE WILL ENHANCE THE
FORCING ALOFT...DEEP SURFACE-BASED CONVECTION WILL OCCUR. THOUGH
STILL IN THE WARM SECTOR...THESE CELLS WILL BE CLOSER TO A FRONTAL
BOUNDARY...WHICH WILL BACK THE SURFACE WINDS...ENHANCING THE
TORNADO THREAT. AT THIS TIME...ONLY MONTAGUE AND COOKE ARE
INCLUDED IN A TORNADO WATCH THAT CONTINUES THROUGH 9 PM.

MUCH OF THIS CONVECTION IS DIURNALLY DRIVEN AND WILL DISSIPATE
WITH THE LOSS OF DAYTIME HEATING. THE BULK OF THE ACTIVITY
OVERNIGHT WILL BE NORTH OF THE I-20 CORRIDOR...ASSOCIATED WITH THE
TRANSITING SHORTWAVE ENERGY. THE SEVERE POTENTIAL WILL DIMINISH...
BUT THE THREAT OF HEAVY RAIN WILL PERSIST.

DESPITE SOME SUBSIDENCE AND SHORTWAVE RIDGING ON WEDNESDAY...THE
EXITING SHORTWAVE TROUGH WILL HELP DRAG THE FRONTAL BOUNDARY INTO
THE I-20/I-30 CORRIDORS AT PEAK HEATING WEDNESDAY AFTERNOON.
SEVERE STORMS WILL BE POSSIBLE ALONG THE BOUNDARY...BUT THEIR
DURATION WILL DEPEND ON THE SPEED OF THE FRONT AND THE EXTENT OF
THE CONVECTION DEVELOPING A SOUTHWARD-MOVING COLD POOL THAT COULD
LIMIT THE LIFESPAN OF INDIVIDUAL UPDRAFTS. HOWEVER...STORM MOTION
NEARLY PARALLEL TO THE BOUNDARY COULD PROLONG ROTATING UPDRAFTS
SUFFICIENTLY FOR A FEW TORNADOES. THEN AGAIN...IF TOO MANY
UPDRAFTS ARE COMPETING...TRAINING ALONG THE BOUNDARY AND A
RESULTING FLOOD THREAT MAY BE THE PRIMARY HAZARD.

DEPENDING ON THE EXTENT OF THE WEDNESDAY CONVECTIVE ACTIVITY...THE
FRONT MAY PASS THROUGH THE ENTIRE CWA. EVEN THOUGH DEW POINTS WILL
BE REDUCED IN THE POSTFRONTAL AIR ON THURSDAY...OVERRUNNING 850MB
MOISTURE AND RENEWED SOUTHWEST FLOW ALOFT SHOULD PREVENT A BREAK
IN THE WET PATTERN. RAIN CHANCES WILL STEADILY INCREASE INTO THE
HOLIDAY WEEKEND...LIKELY DISRUPTING OUTDOOR ACTIVITIES. IT STILL
APPEARS THE MAIN EVENT WILL BE SATURDAY NIGHT INTO SUNDAY...WHEN A
POTENT SHORTWAVE TRACKS THROUGH NORTH AND CENTRAL TEXAS. GUIDANCE
REMAINS IN GOOD AGREEMENT WITH THE POSITION AND TIMING...THOUGH
THIS FAR OUT...THERE ARE UNSURPRISINGLY SOME DIFFERENCES IN
STRENGTH. WITH THE CURRENT PROJECTED TIMING...THE MAIN CONCERN
WOULD BE WIDESPREAD RAINFALL AND FLOODING.
