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

Shreveport, LA (KBAD), launched 00:00Z, 1.7 hours before the alert went out and 149 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, Apr 24, 7:38 PM CDT, 1 hour 5 minutes before

AREA FORECAST DISCUSSION
NATIONAL WEATHER SERVICE SHREVEPORT LA
738 PM CDT FRI APR 24 2015

.AVIATION...
FOR THE 25/00Z TAFS...A WIDE RANGE OF CIGS IN PLACE TO START THIS
TAF PERIOD WITH A WARM FRONT STRADDLING THE AR/LA BORDER AND THEN
SNAKING BACK NWWRD OVER EXTREME NE TX. THIS IS RESULTING IN LIFR
CIGS AND VSBYS AT TXK/ELD NORTH OF THE WARM FRONT WHILE MVFR/LOW
VFR CIGS ARE SEEN FARTHER SOUTH AT OUR REMAINING TAF SITES. A LINE
OF STRONG CONVECTION IS NOTED NEAR TXK EXTENDING SWWRD ALONG I-30
AS A MORE INTENSE LINE OF STORMS REMAINS TO OUR WEST NEAR THE DFW
METROPLEX. AVIATION CONCERNS ARE NUMEROUS WITH THESE STORMS THIS
EVENING TO INCLUDE SEVERE TURBULENCE...MIXED ICING...AND FREQUENT
LIGHTNING. WINDS ARE VEERING OFF THE DECK WITH MOSTLY S/SE WINDS
AT THE SFC AND BECOMING MORE W/SW ALOFT...SPEEDS NEAR AREAS OF
CONVECTION MAY EXCEED 50 KTS AT THE SFC. CONDITIONS WILL SLOWLY
IMPROVE AFTER MIDNIGHT THROUGH THE MORNING HOURS ON SATURDAY AS
CONVECTION MOVES EAST AND GRADUAL CLEARING OCCURS FROM W TO E.

.PREV DISCUSSION... /ISSUED 507 PM CDT FRI APR 24 2015/

UPDATE...
JUST SENT OUT A QUICK UPDATE TO INCLUDE TORNADO WATCH 103 THROUGH
10 PM TONIGHT. STORMS TO DEVELOP ALONG AND SOUTH OF A BAROCLINIC
ZONE ORIENTED EAST TO WEST MAINLY ACROSS THE INTERSTATE 20
CORRIDOR. DAMAGING WINDS...HEAVY RAIN...HAIL...AND ISOLATED
TORNADOES POSSIBLE. /05/

PREV DISCUSSION... /ISSUED 326 PM CDT FRI APR 24 2015/

DISCUSSION...
LATEST SFC ANALYSIS SHOWING A DEEPENING SFC LOW ACROSS SE CO INTO
SW KS WITH A DRYLINE ACROSS THE TX/OK PNDL INTO W TX. A SOUTHEAST
FLANKING WARM FRONT EXTENDED FROM THE SFC LOW AND SNAKED SOUTH
AND EAST INTO CENTRAL OK TO JUST SOUTH OF DFW TO NEAR TYR TO ESF.
THIS WARM FRONT HAS MOVED VERY LITTLE TODAY ACROSS S/CENTRAL LA
BUT HAS SHOWN A GREATER TENDENCY TO MOVE NORTHWARD INTO NORTH
CENTRAL TEXAS OVER THE LAST COUPLE HOURS. CLOUD COVER REMAINS VERY
THICK AND ITS THIS CLOUD COVER THAT HAS TEMPERED DAYTIME HIGH
TEMPS TODAY. ITS ALSO THIS CLOUD COVER THAT HAS NOT ALLOWED FOR
MUCH IN THE WAY OF INSTABILITY. LATEST MESOANALYSIS ONLY SHOWING
CAPE VALUES NEAR 1000J/KG ALONG AND SOUTHWEST OF THE SLOWLY
RETURNING NORTHWARD WARM FRONT.

SUPERCELL THUNDERSTORM THAT FORMED SOUTH OF OUR AREA EARLIER TODAY
FORMED ALONG THE WARM FRONT AND THE BEST UPPER LEVEL SUPPORT WHICH
IS MEAGER AT BEST...EXISTS OUT WEST WHERE TORNADO WATCH #100 WAS
JUST ISSUED FOR PORTIONS OF CENTRAL AND N TX. THE LATEST WRF
OUTPUT HAS SHOWN A TENDENCY TO LIFT THE WARM FRONT TOO FAR NORTH
AND THUS ITS SOLUTION WAS DISCOUNTED. HAVE INSTEAD GONE WITH A
MODEL BLEND OF THE HRRR FOR THE VERY SHORT TERM...FOLLOWED BY A
GFS/ECMWF BLEND BEYOND TONIGHT. HAVING SAID THAT...THE LATEST HRRR
SHOWS CONVECTION DEVELOPING RAPIDLY NEAR AND NORTH OF THE I-20
CORRIDOR OF N TX LATER THIS EVENING WITH SOME OF THESE STORMS
LIKELY EXHIBITING DISCRETE CHARACTERISTICS AS THEY MOVE EASTWARD
INTO OUR NW ZONES. SOME OF THIS STRONG/SEVERE CONVECTION COULD
EVENTUALLY MOVE ITS WAY INTO NW LA LATE THIS EVENING/OVERNIGHT BUT
THE EVENTUAL STORM MODE SHOULD BE FOR A BROKEN LINE OF STRONG TO
SEVERE THUNDERSTORMS TO DEVELOP ACROSS THE REGION...RAPIDLY
EXPANDING AND SPREADING SOUTH AND EAST THROUGH THE NIGHT. DAMAGING
WIND GUSTS...LARGE HAIL AND ISOLATED TORNADOES WILL CONTINUE TO BE
A THREAT...WITH THE TORNADIC THREAT LIKELY ORIENTED NEAR WHERE THE
WARM FRONT SETS UP LATER THIS EVENING...SOMEWHERE ACROSS NE TX
INTO WEST CENTRAL OR NORTHWEST LOUISIANA.

THE LEAD SHORTWAVE EJECTS NORTHWARD INTO THE CENTRAL PLAINS
OVERNIGHT TONIGHT WITH NEAR ZONAL FLOW IN ITS WAKE SETTING UP
ACROSS THE SOUTHERN PLAINS. THIS SHOULD RESULT IN A MUCH DRIER DAY
ON SATURDAY BUT A STRONG PRESSURE GRADIENT WILL EXIST ACROSS THE
REGION AS WELL. STRONG SOUTHWEST WINDS AND EVENTUAL SUNSHINE WILL
ALLOW FOR SFC TEMPS TO WARM WELL INTO THE 80S ON SAT AS WELL AS
SUN WITH SOME LOCATIONS LIKELY FLIRTING WITH THE 90 DEGREE MARK.
MOISTURE BEGINS TO RETURN QUICKLY BACK INTO THE REGION FROM THE
SOUTH DURING THE DAY SUNDAY INTO SUNDAY NIGHT AS YET ANOTHER UPPER
TROUGH DIGS INTO THE SOUTHWEST CONUS AND CUTS OFF ACROSS THE FOUR
CORNERS REGION LATE SUNDAY NIGHT. THIS RETURNING MOISTURE AND
INSTABILITY WILL LIKELY RESULT IN ANOTHER RISK OF STRONG TO SEVERE
THUNDERSTORMS ACROSS OUR REGION MONDAY INTO MONDAY NIGHT WITH THE
UPPER TROUGH ONLY MAKING SLOW EASTWARD PROGRESS INTO CENTRAL OK BY
TUE. THE GOOD NEWS IS BY THIS TIME...WE SHOULD BEGIN TO SEE DRY
SLOTTING ALONG THE SOUTHERN FLANK OF THE CLOSED LOW WHICH SHOULD
RESULT IN DRIER CONDITIONS TUESDAY AND ESPECIALLY WEDNESDAY
THROUGH THE END OF THE WORK WEEK AS AS UPPER LEVEL RIDGING BEGINS
TO TAKE OVER FROM THE WEST.
