The radar

The Ft Campbell radar (KHPX), 96 km from the middle of the area, began a volume at 22:57 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 flash flood 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

Nashville Metro, TN (KBNA), launched 12:00Z, 10.9 hours before the alert went out and 129 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.

DISCUSSION...

CLOUDS ARE ON THE INCREASE OVER NORTHERN AREAS OF THE FORECAST
AREA THIS AFTERNOON WITH MOSTLY SUNNY SKIES ELSEWHERE. TEMPERATURES
VARY QUITE A BIT WITH SOME AREAS HAVING THUNDERSTORMS MOVE THROUGH
THIS AFTERNOON SO READINGS RANGE FROM THE UPPER 70S TO MID 90S.
THUNDERSTORMS HAVE DEVELOPED AND ARE MOVING ACROSS NORTHERN
SECTIONS OF THE FORECAST AREA WHERE A SEVERE THUNDERSTORM WATCH
REMAINS IN EFFECT UNTIL 800 PM CDT.

A COLD FRONT WILL BE DROPPING SOUTH INTO THE FORECAST AREA THIS
EVENING. ADDITIONAL SHOWERS AND THUNDERSTORMS WILL MOVE THROUGH
THE REGION TONIGHT. SOME OF THE THUNDERSTORMS COULD CONTAIN
DAMAGING WINDS AND LARGE HAIL. TEMPERATURES WILL COOL OFF SOME
BEHIND THE FRONT OVERNIGHT WITH LOWS SATURDAY MORNING FROM THE
UPPER 60S TO MID 70S.

THE COLD FRONT WILL DROP SOUTH OF THE FORECAST AREA SATURDAY
MORNING WITH THUNDERSTORMS ENDING OVER EXTREME SOUTHERN SECTIONS.
BEHIND THE FRONT...COOLER AND DRIER AIR WILL MAKE ITS WAY INTO THE
ENTIRE FORECAST AREA. THIS WILL MEAN HIGHS WILL BE IN THE LOW TO
MID 80S. HIGH PRESSURE WILL BUILD INTO THE REGION SATURDAY NIGHT
WHICH WILL ALLOW TEMPERATURES TO DROP INTO THE 60S OVER MUCH OF
THE FORECAST AREA BY SUNDAY MORNING. SUNDAY WILL REMAIN DRY WITH
TEMPERATURES WARMING UP A COUPLE OF DEGREES FROM SATURDAY AS HIGHS
REACH THE MID 80S.

BY SUNDAY NIGHT...ANOTHER COLD FRONT WILL START TO MOVE INTO THE
CENTRAL PLAINS AND MID MISSISSIPPI VALLEY. THUNDERSTORMS ARE
EXPECTED TO DEVELOP AHEAD OF THE FRONT AND SOME OF THIS ACTIVITY
MAY REACH THE FAR NORTHERN SECTIONS OF THE FORECAST AREA. THIS
COLD FRONT WILL CONTINUE TO MOVE SOUTH MONDAY AND TUESDAY REACHING
FAR NORTHERN SECTIONS OF THE FORECAST AREA BY TUESDAY MORNING. AS
THE FRONT MOVES CLOSER TO THE FORECAST AREA THE CHANCE OF THUNDERSTORMS
WILL GRADUALLY INCREASE. TEMPERATURES BOTH DAYS WILL BE FAIRLY
CLOSE TO NORMAL LEVELS WITH HIGHS IN THE UPPER 80S TO AROUND 90
DEGREES.

THIS COLD FRONT IS EXPECTED TO STALL OUT ACROSS THE NORTHERN
SECTIONS OF THE FORECAST AREA ON WEDNESDAY AND REMAIN NEAR
STATIONARY FROM WEDNESDAY THROUGH NEXT FRIDAY. AS A RESULT THERE
WILL STILL BE A CHANCE OF THUNDERSTORMS EACH DAY WITH TEMPERATURES
REMAINING AT OR SLIGHTLY BELOW NORMAL THROUGH THE PERIOD.
