The Western Arkansas radar (KSRX), 99 km from the middle of the area, began a volume at 00:01 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 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 TULSA OK
648 PM CDT TUE MAR 24 2015

.AVIATION...
CONCERNING TAF SITES KTUL/KRVS/KBVO/KMLC/KXNA/KFYV/KFSM/KROG.
A LINE OF BROKEN THUNDERSTORMS WILL CONTINUE TO PUSH ACROSS
NORTHWEST ARKANSAS AND ALSO SOUTHEAST OKLAHOMA THIS EVENING AS A
FRONTAL BOUNDARY SAGS ACROSS THE REGION. MLC/FSM WILL HAVE THE
HIGHER POTENTIAL OF REPORTING PRECIP AND WILL THUS CARRY VCTS FOR
THESE LOCATIONS. ACROSS THE REST OF THE REGION OVERNIGHT MOSTLY
CLEAR SKIES AND VARIABLE WINDS ARE EXPECTED. ALSO OVERNIGHT...THE
FRONTAL BOUNDARY LOOKS TO RETURN NORTHWARD SPREADING MVFR CEILINGS
BACK NORTHWARD ACROSS THE REGION. DURING THE DAY
WEDNESDAY...CONDITIONS SHOULD BE ABLE TO LIFT BACK TO VFR WHILE
THUNDERSTORM CHANCES INCREASE AGAIN OVER THE CWA. WILL CARRY
PROB30/VCTS/-TSRA FOR NEXT PRECIP TIMING.MVFR CONDITIONS COULD BE
POSSIBLE WITHIN ANY THUNDERSTORM ACTIVITY WEDNESDAY AFTERNOON.

&&

.PREV DISCUSSION... /ISSUED 340 PM CDT TUE MAR 24 2015/

DISCUSSION...

MAIN FORECAST CONCERN WITH THIS PACKAGE IS THE THREAT OF SEVERE
WEATHER THIS AFTERNOON INTO THIS EVENING...ALONG WITH A SECOND
ROUND OF THUNDERSTORMS...WITH POSSIBLE SEVERE STORMS...AGAIN ON
WEDNESDAY.

AN UPPER LEVEL WAVE IS CURRENTLY PUSHING EASTWARD ACROSS
KANSAS...DRAGGING A COLD FRONT ACROSS THE CENTRAL AND SOUTHERN
PLAINS. THUNDERSTORMS ARE EXPECTED TO DEVELOP ALONG THIS FRONTAL
BOUNDARY THIS AFTERNOON...AND TRACK EASTWARD ACROSS EASTERN
OKLAHOMA AND INTO WESTERN ARKANSAS DURING THE EVENING.
INGREDIENTS ARE IN PLACE TO SUPPORT THE DEVELOPMENT OF SEVERE
THUNDERSTORMS...INITIALLY IN THE FORM OF DISCRETE STORMS...THEN
FORMING INTO A LINE OF STORMS ALONG THE FRONT. ALL FORMS OF SEVERE
WEATHER ARE POSSIBLE...INCLUDING LARGE HAIL...STRONG DAMAGING
WINDS...AND AN ISOLATED TORNADO EARLY ON WITH THE DISCRETE STORMS.
THE UPPER LEVEL WAVE WILL QUICKLY SHIFT EAST INTO THE MIDWEST
TONIGHT...WITH THE COLD FRONT STALLING ACROSS CENTRAL AND WESTERN
ARKANSAS...DOWN INTO FAR SOUTHEAST OKLAHOMA.

A STRONGER AND DEEPER UPPER LEVEL WAVE WILL THEN PUSH INTO THE
SOUTHERN PLAINS ON WEDNESDAY...BRINGING A STRONGER COLD FRONT INTO
THE AREA AND A SECOND ROUND OF SHOWERS AND THUNDERSTORMS. STORMS
WILL AGAIN DEVELOP ALONG THE FRONTAL BOUNDARY DURING THE AFTERNOON
AND EARLY EVENING HOURS...WITH THE POSSIBILITY OF SEVERE STORMS
WITH LARGE HAIL...STRONG DAMAGING WINDS...AND AN ISOLATED TORNADO.
AS THE COLDER AIR SPREADS SOUTHWARD INTO THE AREA...AND UNDERCUTS
THE SHOWERS AND STORMS...THE TORNADO THREAT WILL LESSEN...HOWEVER
THE POSSIBILITY OF LARGE HAIL AND DAMAGING WINDS WILL PERSIST.
HEAVY RAINFALL WILL ALSO BE LIKELY...ESPECIALLY ACROSS EAST
CENTRAL OKLAHOMA INTO NORTHWEST ARKANSAS. LOCALIZED FLOODING COULD
BECOME A CONCERN. THE UPPER LEVEL TROUGH WILL PUSH THROUGH THE
REGION THURSDAY MORNING...ENDING THE SHOWERS AND STORMS FROM WEST
TO EAST BY LATE THURSDAY MORNING INTO THE EARLY AFTERNOON HOURS.

A PERIOD OF COOLER AND MAINLY DRY WEATHER WILL THEN DEVELOP FOR
THURSDAY AND FRIDAY...WITH A WARM UP FOR THE WEEKEND.
