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 GOODLAND KS
500 PM MDT SUN JUL 19 2015
.SHORT TERM...(THIS EVENING THROUGH MONDAY)
ISSUED AT 157 PM MDT SUN JUL 19 2015
COMPLICATED SURFACE PATTERN IN PLACE. EITHER OR SOME COMBINATION
OF A LEFT OVER OUTFLOW BOUNDARY...SURFACE TROUGH RETREATING FRONT
IS NOW NEAR OR OVER THE SOUTHERN PORTION OF THE AREA. SHORTWAVE
TROUGH IS STARTING TO MOVE THROUGH FROM THE SOUTH AND WEST. A WEAK
RIGHT REAR QUADRANT IS MOVING THROUGH THE AREA DURING THE NIGHT.
THE RAP IS CATCHING THE SURFACE WIND FIELD THE BEST RIGHT NOW. IT
AND THE HRRR WHICH DID WELL FROM LAST NIGHT...IS CATCHING THE WIND
FIELD AND THE CURRENT AND EXPECTED THUNDERSTORM DEVELOPMENT VERY
WELL RIGHT NOW. STORMS WILL CONTINUE INCREASE IN COVERAGE AND
INTENSITY THROUGH TONIGHT AS STORMS MOVE ACROSS THE AREA THROUGH
THE OVERNIGHT HOURS.
VERY UNSTABLE AIR MASS AND EXPECT SOME OF THESE STORMS TO BECOME
SEVERE. HOWEVER THE BIGGEST THREAT WILL BE THE HEAVY RAINFALL AND
POSSIBLE FLASH FLOODING. AIR MASS REMAINS VERY MOIST THROUGH A
DEEP DEPTH. WHERE THE THREAT FOR HEAVY RAINFALL MATCHES UP WITH
WHERE HEAVY RAINFALL/SOME FLASH FLOODING OCCURRED LAST NIGHT/EARLY
THIS MORNING IS OVER THE SOUTHERN HALF OF THE AREA. THEREFORE A
FLASH FLOOD WATCH HAS BEEN ISSUED THROUGH TONIGHT.
VERY LIGHT LINGERING RAINFALL MAY BE AROUND THROUGH MID MORNING.
AFTER THAT IT SHOULD STAY QUIET UNTIL MID AFTERNOON. WEST TO
NORTHWEST FLOW ALOFT WITH ANOTHER SHORTWAVE TROUGH TO MOVE
THROUGH. AIR MASS DOES NOT APPEAR AS MOIST. ALSO SURFACE BOUNDARY
LOOKS TO BE SOUTH OF AREA. MODELS ARE NOT VERY EXCITED ABOUT THE
AFTERNOON RAINFALL CHANCES. HOWEVER CONSIDERING THE RESIDUAL
MOISTURE IN PLACE AND A SHORTWAVE TROUGH IN A WEST TO NORTHWEST
FLOW ALOFT...AM KEEPING SLIGHT TO CHANCE POPS FOR NOW.
.LONG TERM...(MONDAY NIGHT THROUGH SUNDAY)
ISSUED AT 254 PM MDT SUN JUL 19 2015
FOR THE EXTENDED FORECAST PERIOD...NEEDED TO MAKE SOME CHANGES FOR
THIS RUN AS MODELS HAVE COME INTO BETTER AGREEMENT WITH RESPECT TO
TWO FEATURES. FIRST...GUIDANCE IS HONING IN ON A MORE SOUTHERN
SOLUTION WITH REGARDS TO PRECIPITATION CHANCES MONDAY NIGHT THROUGH
TUESDAY NIGHT. THIS IS LIKELY DUE TO A FURTHER SOUTH PUSH FROM THE
FRONT THAN ORIGINALLY ANTICIPATED. SECOND...GUIDANCE IS IN BETTER
AGREEMENT ON THE LOCATION AND STRENGTH OF THE 500 MB HIGH PRESSURE
RIDGE THAT DEVELOPS TOWARDS THE END OF THE WEEK.
BEGINNING WITH MONDAY NIGHT...ANTICIPATE RELATIVELY QUIET WEATHER
DUE TO THE FRONT AND THUS CONVECTIVE ACTIVITY REMAINING FURTHER
SOUTH. SOME MODELS CONTINUE INDICATING ISENTROPIC LIFT DEVELOPING AS
A LOW LEVEL JET STRENGTHENS OVER THE FRONT. A NARROW TONGUE OF
INSTABILITY RETURNS WITHIN THE SOUTHEASTER FLOW EARLY TUESDAY
MORNING SO SOME ELEVATED SHOWERS/STORMS MAY BE ABLE TO DEVELOP. ALL
PARAMETERS ARE DELAYED BY 6-12 HOURS FROM YESTERDAY SO ACTIVITY MAY
HOLD OFF UNTIL AFTER SUNRISE TUESDAY. THEREFORE...LOWERED POPS FOR
MONDAY NIGHT.
FOR TUESDAY THROUGH WEDNESDAY...ANOTHER WET PERIOD IS ANTICIPATED.
UNCERTAINTY REMAINS ON THE EXACT AXIS WHERE THE RAIN WILL OCCUR. IN
ADDITION...THERE MAY BE A TIGHT GRADIENT BETWEEN LITTLE TO NO
RAINFALL AND ANOTHER ROUND OF BENEFICIAL SOAKING RAINS. THE BEST
FORCING SHOULD ARRIVE DURING THE DAY TUESDAY...SLOWLY TRANSITIONING
INTO CENTRAL KANSAS BY WEDNEDAY MORNING. THEREFORE...THE BEST
CHANCES FOR WIDESPREAD PRECIPITATION SHOULD OCCUR TUESDAY NIGHT WITH
CHANCES DIMINISHING WEDNESDAY. PRECIPITABLE WATER VALUES INCREASE
TUESDAY AND TUESDAY NIGHT...REACHING A MAXIMUM NEAR 1.60 INCHES BY
WEDNESDAY MORNING. THEREFORE...RAIN COULD BE HEAVY AT TIMES WITH
SOME THUNDERSTORMS.
BY LATE WEDNESDAY INTO THURSDAY...THE RIDGE OF HIGH PRESSURE OVER
THE SOUTHERN UNITED STATES SLIDES WEST AND STRENGTHENS/BUILDS NORTH
OVER THE HIGH PLAINS. THIS SHOULD LEAD TO AN END IN PRECIPITATION
CHANCES FOR THE MOST PART AS WELL AS A RETURN TO HOT TEMPERATURES.
FOR THURSDAY THROUGH AT LEAST NEXT WEEKEND...SOME MEMBERS OF THE
FORECAST GUIDANCE DO INDICATE CHANCES FOR ISOLATED THUNDERSTORMS.
HOWEVER...THERE IS NOT A CONSISTENT SIGNAL AMONGST THE GUIDANCE AND
NO TIME PERIODS IN PARTICULAR TO HONE IN ON. IN FACT...THINK THAT
MOST LIKELY THE REGION REMAINS DRY DUE TO CLOSENESS/STRENGTH OF THE
HIGH PRESSURE RIDGE.
