Verified. The Iowa Environmental Mesonet's Cow matched one storm report to this severe thunderstorm warning; the first came 39 minutes after it went out.

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.

What 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 North Platte, NE wrote its last area forecast discussion before this severe thunderstorm warning went out at Jul 10, 3:27 PM CDT, 3 hours 20 minutes earlier.

Area forecast discussion, Jul 10, 3:27 PM CDT, 3 hours 20 minutes before

AREA FORECAST DISCUSSION
NATIONAL WEATHER SERVICE NORTH PLATTE NE
327 PM CDT FRI JUL 10 2015

.SHORT TERM...(THIS EVENING THROUGH SATURDAY)
ISSUED AT 326 PM CDT FRI JUL 10 2015

FORECAST CHALLENGE REMAINS POPS TONIGHT INTO SATURDAY. PIECES OF
ENERGY CONTINUE TO EJECT OUT OF THE SOUTHWEST UPPER TROUGH...WHERE
MODELS ARE INCONSISTENT IN TIMING AND AREAL COVERAGE. A BLEND OF THE
MODELS USED AND TREND TOWARD THE HIRES ARW/NMM SOLUTIONS.

AT 19Z SURFACE ANALYSIS SHOWED SURFACE TROUGH EXTENDED SOUTH ON THE
HIGH PLAINS WITH A WARM FRONT EXTENDING FROM ACROSS SOUTHWEST NEB
INTO EAST CENTRAL KANSAS. A DRYLINE ALSO EXTENDED SOUTH THROUGH FAR
EASTERN COLORADO INTO NEW MEXICO. THE PATTERN CHANGES LITTLE TONIGHT
WITH SOUTHERLY WINDS TO DRAW MOISTURE NORTHWARD WITH ISOLATED TO
SCATTERED SHOWERS AND THUNDERSTORMS POSSIBLE ACROSS THE AREA. THE
RADAR IS CURRENTLY SHOWING INCREASED RETURNS ACROSS THE SOUTHWEST
INTO THE PANHANDLE...WHERE A CONVECTIVE COMPLEX IS POSSIBLE THAT
COULD DEVELOP IN THE SOUTHWEST AND BUILD EAST OVERNIGHT.
YET...CANNOT RULE OUT CONVECTION ANYWHERE TONIGHT AS THE IMPULSES
CONTINUE TO LIFT NORTHEAST. TONIGHT LOW TEMPERATURES WILL BE AROUND
60 IN THE EASTERN PANHANDLE TO MID 60S FURTHER EAST. AREAS OF FOG
ARE POSSIBLE TOWARD DAYBREAK ACROSS THE SOUTHWEST. THE EXTENT OF THE
FOG COULD EXTEND NORTH TO HIGHWAY 2 AFTER 5 AM CDT TO MID MORNING.

SATURDAY TEMPERATURES CONTINUE TO TREND UPWARDS. THE SOUTHWEST FLOW
ALOFT PREVAILS AS THE SURFACE FRONT BEGINS TO PUSH EAST.
TEMPERATURES WILL CLIMB INTO THE 90S THROUGHOUT. BY LATE AFTERNOON
THUNDERSTORMS WILL AGAIN BE POSSIBLE ALONG AND EAST OF THE FRONTAL
BOUNDARY...GENERALLY EAST OF A LINE FROM OGALLALA TO VALENTINE.
SEVERE STORMS CANNOT BE RULED OUT AS THE THUNDERSTORMS DEVELOP AND
MOVE NORTHEASTWARD.

.LONG TERM...(SATURDAY NIGHT THROUGH FRIDAY)
ISSUED AT 326 PM CDT FRI JUL 10 2015

AN UPPER HIGH OVER THE SOUTHERN PLAINS AND A NEARLY STATIONARY
SURFACE BOUNDARY ON THE HIGH PLAINS WILL CREATE A FAIRLY ACTIVE
WEATHER PATTERN THROUGH MOST OF NEXT WEEK.

FOR SATURDAY...THE SURFACE BOUNDARY IS IN CENTRAL NEBRASKA BY 00Z SO
THE ASSOCIATED LOW LEVEL FORCING IS NORTHEAST THROUGH SOUTH CENTRAL
NEBRASKA. THIS WILL BRING ANY CHANCES OF PRECIPITATION IN CENTRAL
AND WESTERN NEBRASKA TO AN END BY 03Z.

THE 0-2KM THETA-E AND MIXING RATIO SHOW A NEW BOUNDARY DEVELOPING
NORTH CENTRAL THROUGH SOUTHWEST NEBRASKA EARLY SUNDAY AND IT IS
FORCED EASTWARD QUICKLY BEFORE THE ATMOSPHERE HAS THE CHANCE TO
RELOAD. THEREFORE CONDITIONS ARE MARGINALLY STABLE WITH LITTLE
AVAILABLE MOISTURE AND WE WILL KEEP PRECIPITATION CHANCES LESS THAN
15 PERCENT.

THE NEXT REAL SHOT AT SIGNIFICANT PRECIPITATION IN CENTRAL AND
WESTERN NEBRASKA IS TUESDAY EVENING. A TRAJECTORY FROM THE SOUTHWEST
U.S. WILL BRING SOME MOISTURE TO THE HIGH PLAINS IN TIME TO FEED A
BOUNDARY IN THE AREA. AS THE SURFACE BOUNDARY BULGES EAST...SOME LOW
LEVEL FORCING IS REALIZED WITH THE STRONGEST LIFT IN CENTRAL AND
NORTH CENTRAL NEBRASKA. WITH PRECIPITABLE WATER VALUES APPROACHING
1.5 INCH...SOME HEAVY RAIN IS POSSIBLE. HOWEVER...WITH AVAILABLE
POTENTIAL ENERGY AT LESS THAN 800J/KG AND DEEP SHEAR OF 20-25KT...
THE RISK OF LARGE HAIL IS MINIMAL.

ON WEDNESDAY...RETURN FLOW BRINGS A MOISTURE TRAJECTORY FROM THE
GULF OF MEXICO TO CENTRAL NEBRASKA AND THE THETA-E RIDGE BUILDS OVER
CENTRAL NEBRASKA INTO EASTERN SOUTH DAKOTA JUST AHEAD OF ANOTHER LOW
LEVEL BOUNDARY. THIS TRAJECTORY WOULD ACTUALLY FAVOR NORTH CENTRAL
NEBRASKA FOR THUNDERSTORMS WEDNESDAY EVENING AND OVERNIGHT THOUGH
SOME CHANCE MAY BE APPROPRIATE FOR CENTRAL AND SOUTHWEST NEBRASKA.
PROJECTION OF THE CONVECTIVE PARAMETERS SHOWS SURFACE-BASED
AVAILABLE POTENTIAL ENERGY OF 4000J/KG WITH 0-6KM BULK SHEAR 30-40KT
IN NORTH CENTRAL NEBRASKA...SO SEVERE STORMS ARE POSSIBLE. AT THAT
FORECAST RANGE... THOUGH...IT IS A LITTLE TOO EARLY TO START HITTING
IT IN THE OUTLOOKS.

WITH A PERSISTENT SURFACE BOUNDARY IN THE WEST...THERE ARE SOME
CHANCES OF STORMS AGAIN THURSDAY NIGHT AND FRIDAY AFTERNOON.

OTHERWISE...THE RETURN OF SUMMER-LIKE TEMPERATURES IS THE OTHER
NEWS ITEM WITH ABOVE AVERAGE TEMPERATURES THROUGH THURSDAY. IN
FACT...SOME GUIDANCE INDICATES TEMPERATURES APPROACHING 100F OVER A
LARGE PART OF NORTH CENTRAL THROUGH SOUTHWEST NEBRASKA. FOR THE TIME
BEING...WE WILL KEEP THEM IN THE MID TO UPPER 90S. FOR MONDAY
THROUGH THURSDAY...LOW TO MID 90S ARE MORE LIKELY.

&&

.AVIATION...(FOR THE 18Z TAFS THROUGH 18Z SATURDAY AFTERNOON)
ISSUED AT 1233 PM CDT FRI JUL 10 2015

SHORT TERM MODELS CONTINUE TO GENERATE ISOLATED POPS THIS
EVENING...THEN CLOUDS DEVELOPING ACROSS THE SOUTHWEST WITH BASES
BELOW 3 KFT. THESE LOW CLOUDS AND CEILINGS SHOULD DISSIPATE WITH
THE LOSS OF HEATING. OTHERWISE...VISUAL FLIGHT RULES AT TERMINALS
KLBF AND KVTN THROUGH 18Z SATURDAY. MODELS ARE HINTING TOWARD
BOUNDARY LAYER MOISTURE OVERNIGHT TOWARD DAYBREAK THAT MAY RESULT
IN SOME PATCHY FOG WITH VISIBILITY AOB 5 SM IN BR.
