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.

The nearest sounding before it

Flgstf/Belemont, AZ (KFGZ), launched 12:00Z, 8.0 hours before the alert went out and 147 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.

Area forecast discussion, Oct 20, 9:23 AM MST, 3 hours 34 minutes before

AREA FORECAST DISCUSSION
NATIONAL WEATHER SERVICE PHOENIX AZ
923 AM MST TUE OCT 20 2015

.SYNOPSIS...
A PERSISTENT AREA OF LOW PRESSURE OVER THE WESTERN UNITED STATES
WILL BRING ELEVATED CHANCES OF SHOWERS AND THUNDERSTORMS TO THE
DESERT SOUTHWEST THROUGH WEDNESDAY. TEMPERATURES WILL COOL OFF WITH
THE LOW PRESSURE SYSTEM. A DRIER AND WARMER AIRMASS WILL RETURN THIS
WEEKEND.

&&

.DISCUSSION...
STORM ACTIVITY STARTED EARLY THIS MORNING AND HAS REMAINED ISOLATED
TO SCATTERED OVER MARICOPA AND LA PAZ COUNTIES...NOT SO MUCH
ELSEWHERE. THE STORMS HAVE PRODUCED LOCALLY HEAVY RAINS WITH FLASH
FLOODING OVER SOME OF THE FOOTHILLS OF FAR NORTHERN METRO PHOENIX.
RUNOFF IN NEW RIVER AND SKUNK CREEK HAS BEEN IMPRESSIVE GIVEN THE
PRECIP GAUGE READINGS AND RADAR ESTIMATES. THESE STORMS HAVE BEEN
ASSOCIATED WITH A SHORT WAVE MOVING THROUGH THE SOUTHERN END OF A
NARROW ELONGATED UPPER TROUGH OVER THE WESTERN STATES. IN ADDITION TO
THE PVA...UPPER DIVERGENCE IS ALSO IN PLAY. THE LATEST RAP INDICATES
THAT THE SHORT WAVE AXIS WILL BE NORTH OF MARICOPA COUNTY BY 20Z.
HOWEVER...IT ALSO INDICATES THAT THERE WILL BE LINGERING UPPER
DIVERGENCE AS WELL AS SOME MODEST VORTICITY AS THE LARGER SCALE
CIRCULATION WITHIN THE SOUTHERN END OF THE TROUGH BECOMES CENTERED
NEAR BLYTHE. A MORE SUBSTANTIAL SHORT WAVE/VORT MAX...CURRENTLY NEAR
THE WEST COAST OF FAR NORTHERN BAJA...WILL TRACK SOUTH OF THE BORDER
THIS AFTERNOON AND EVENING BEFORE AFFECTING MAINLY SOUTHEAST ARIZONA
LATER TONIGHT. EVEN THOUGH THE DYNAMICAL FORCING DECREASES THIS
AFTERNOON THE RAP HOLDS ON TO SIGNIFICANT CAPE. OTHER
MODELS...INCLUDING SREF...TRENDS DOWN THE CAPE AS THE DAY PROGRESSES.
VERTICAL WIND SHEAR LOOKS TO DECREASE AS WELL. THE SHORT OF IT IS
THAT SEVERE POTENTIAL SHOULD BE TRENDING DOWN BUT WE WILL STILL HAVE
ENOUGH GOING ON THAT SHOWER AND THUNDERSTORM CHANCES WILL REMAIN
ELEVATED AND THERE WILL STILL BE ISOLATED SEVERE POTENTIAL INTO THE
EVENING. MADE SOME MINOR TWEAKS TO THE FORECASTS BUT NO MAJOR
CHANGES.

&&

.PREVIOUS DISCUSSION ISSUED 320 AM...
AFTER AN EVENING OF A FEW STRONG THUNDERSTORMS TO THE WEST OF THE
PHOENIX AREA...ISOLATED SHOWERS AND THUNDERSTORMS CONTINUE TO DEVELOP
EARLY THIS MORNING. THIS ACTIVITY IS IN RESPONSE TO A STRONG
SHORTWAVE LOCATED OVER SOUTHWEST ARIZONA WHICH IS EMBEDDED IN A MUCH
BROADER DEEP TROUGH OVER THE WESTERN UNITED STATES. A SERIES OF
SHORTWAVE FEATURES WILL AFFECT THE DESERT SOUTHWEST TODAY INTO
WEDNESDAY BRINGING SEVERAL POTENTIAL ROUNDS OF SHOWERS AND
THUNDERSTORMS TO ARIZONA. THE STRONG TO SEVERE THREAT WILL PERSIST
TODAY...BUT WINDS ALOFT WILL BE DECREASING ACROSS SOUTH-CENTRAL
ARIZONA THIS AFTERNOON...SO BEST CHANCES OF ANY STRONGER STORMS WILL
EXIST MAINLY EAST OF THE PHOENIX METRO AREA. AS OF NOW THINKING THE
SHOWERS AND THUNDERSTORMS CURRENTLY WILL LAST THROUGH AROUND DAYBREAK
WITH A BIT OF A BREAK IN THE ACTIVITY THROUGH EARLY THIS AFTERNOON AS
THE FIRST WAVE PUSHES INTO NORTHERN ARIZONA.

THE FOCUS THEN TURNS TO A STRONGER SHORTWAVE MOVING INTO THE AREA
THIS EVENING INTO TONIGHT. THE LOW CENTER WILL REORIENT ITSELF OVER
SOUTHEAST CALIFORNIA LATER THIS MORNING AND THEN INTO SOUTHERN
ARIZONA FROM THIS EVENING INTO WEDNESDAY. A STRONG PV ANOMALY
ACCOMPANIED BY A 100 KT UPPER LEVEL JET MAX WILL DIVE SOUTHWARD TODAY
ALONG THE BACK EDGE OF THE DEEP TROUGH...HELPING TO STRENGTHEN THE
TROUGH FURTHER. THIS STRONG PV ANOMALY IS FORECAST TO ROUND THE BASE
OF THE TROUGH THIS AFTERNOON THROUGH BAJA AND THE GULF OF CALIFORNIA
AND THEN SWING NORTHWARD INTO SOUTH-CENTRAL ARIZONA THIS EVENING INTO
TONIGHT. AMPLE LIFT FROM THIS FEATURE ALONG WITH MODEST INSTABILITY
SHOULD ALLOW FOR A BROAD AREA OF SHOWERS AND THUNDERSTORMS TO MOVE
THROUGH SOUTH-CENTRAL ARIZONA TONIGHT INTO WEDNESDAY MORNING. AS A
RESULT...I HAVE INCREASED POPS OVER THIS AREA SIGNIFICANTLY.
STEERING FLOW WILL HAVE WEAKENED BY THIS POINT...SO STORM MOVEMENT
WILL SLOW ENOUGH TO PROVIDE A POSSIBILITY OF SOME LOCALIZED FLOODING.

FOR WEDNESDAY...THE LOW CENTER WILL REMAIN FAIRLY STATIONARY OVER
SOUTHERN ARIZONA WITH AN AREA OF FOCUSED VERTICAL ASCENT FROM PHOENIX
EASTWARD. DRIER AIR WILL BEGIN TO GET DRAWN IN FROM THE NORTH DURING
THE DAY WEDNESDAY...SO INSTABILITY VALUES WILL DROP LEAVING MAINLY A
GOOD SHOT OF SHOWERS AND A FEW THUNDERSTORMS. CHANCES FOR SHOWERS
WILL DIMINISH BY WEDNESDAY EVENING AND SHOULD MAINLY BE OVER HIGHER
TERRAIN AREAS EAST OF PHOENIX. TEMPERATURES THROUGH WEDNESDAY WILL
SEEM RATHER COOL WITH HIGHS ONLY IN THE UPPER 70S TO LOWER 80S OVER
THE SOUTH-CENTRAL DESERTS...BUT MORE LIKE THE MIDDLE TO UPPER 80S
ACROSS OUR WESTERN ZONES.

THURSDAY AND FRIDAY WILL BE A TRANSITION PERIOD AS THIS DEEP LOW
FINALLY MOVES EASTWARD ALLOWING FOR MUCH DRIER CONDITIONS AND A
WARMING TREND. THE SYNOPTIC FLOW WILL BRING IN A WEAK RIDGE BY FRIDAY
NIGHT FOLLOWED BY MORE OF A ZONAL TYPE FLOW PATTERN THROUGH THE
WEEKEND. RAIN CHANCES WILL END ACROSS MOST OF THE AREA ON THURSDAY
AND THE REGION SHOULD STAY DRY AT LEAST THROUGH THE MIDDLE OF NEXT
WEEK. TEMPERATURES WILL CLIMB BACK TO NEAR NORMALS BY FRIDAY AND THEN
EVEN SLIGHTLY ABOVE NORMAL FOR THE WEEKEND INTO NEXT WEEK.

&&

.AVIATION...
SOUTH-CENTRAL ARIZONA INCLUDING KPHX...KIWA...AND KSDL...
COMPLICATED FORECAST TODAY AND TONIGHT. STORMS CONTINUE TO RACE
NORTHWARD AND ALL PHOENIX TERMINALS SHOULD SEE A LITTLE BREAK IN THE
ACTIVITY THROUGH DAYBREAK. HOWEVER ANOTHER ROUND OF SCATTERED SHOWERS
IS EXPECTED TO MOVE INTO THE AREA BY MID MORNING /ALREADY DEVELOPING
ACROSS YUMA/SW MARICOPA COUNTIES/ AND WILL LIKELY AFFECT ALL PHOENIX
TAF SITES. ADDITIONAL SCATTERED SHOWERS AND STORMS ARE EXPECTED THIS
AFTERNOON AND EVENING. QUITE A BIT OF UNCERTAINTY WITH RESPECT TO
EXACT TIMING OF SHOWERS/STORMS BUT IT WOULD APPEAR CHANCES WILL
GRADUALLY INCREASE THIS AFTERNOON AND EVENING AND REACH THEIR PEAK
LATE TONIGHT INTO EARLY WEDNESDAY MORNING.

SOUTHEAST CALIFORNIA/SOUTHWEST ARIZONA INCLUDING KIPL AND KBLH...
UPPER LOW SHOULD ALLOW FOR STORMS TO DEVELOP LATER THIS AFTERNOON AND
EVENING AND PRIMARILY AFFECT ARIZONA...ALTHOUGH BLH MAY SEE SOME
STORM ACTIVITY. SHOULD BE TOO DRY AT IPL TO SUPPORT STORM
DEVELOPMENT.

AVIATION DISCUSSION NOT UPDATED FOR AMENDED TAFS.

&&

.FIRE WEATHER... THURSDAY THROUGH MONDAY...
LOW PRESSURE WILL MIGRATE EAST OF THE REGION THURSDAY. IN ITS
WAKE...A SLOW WARMING TREND IS EXPECTED THROUGH THE WEEKEND. ANOTHER
WEAK LOW PRESSURE SYSTEM WILL MOVE THROUGH FRIDAY...BUT IS NOT
EXPECTED TO PRODUCE ANY SENSIBLE WEATHER IMPACTS. AFTERNOON HUMIDITY
VALUES IN THE 25 TO 45 PERCENT RANGE EARLIER IN THE WEEK WILL FALL
INTO THE 20 TO 35 PERCENT RANGE BY THE WEEKEND. OVERNIGHT RECOVERY
WILL BE GOOD TO EXCELLENT.
