Local storm reports filed while the alert was in force, from inside its polygon or its counties.
Did it verify
Verified. The Iowa Environmental Mesonet's Cow matched one storm report to this severe thunderstorm warning; the first came 4 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.
The nearest sounding before it
Greensboro/Hi Pt, NC (KGSO), launched 12:00Z, 7.3 hours before the alert went out and 152 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.

HGWhat 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 Greenville-Spartanburg, SC wrote its last area forecast discussion before this severe thunderstorm warning went out at Jun 27, 2:51 PM EDT, 25 minutes earlier.
Area forecast discussion, Jun 27, 2:51 PM EDT, 25 minutes before
Area Forecast Discussion
National Weather Service Greenville-Spartanburg SC
251 PM EDT MON JUN 27 2016
.SYNOPSIS...
A weak cold front will push slowly across the area tonight through
Tuesday. Weak high pressure should build in from the north for the
middle to latter part of the week. Another cold front is expected to
push into the area over the weekend.
&&
.NEAR TERM /UNTIL 6 AM TUESDAY MORNING/...
As of 250 pm, scattered to numerous showers and thunderstorms were
located across the east facing mtn slopes, the upper Savannah River
Valley, and the upstate of SC west of I-26. The convection was
developing within a larger pool of CAPE of 1500-2500 J/kg. DCAPE
across the region is generally weak, 500 J/kg across the mtns to
1000 J/kg across the Lakelands of SC. Corfidi vectors indicate that
the storms will favor a west to east track, speeds expected to range
from 10 to 20 kts. This environment should support the convection to
slide or develop east of the mtns through the afternoon and into the
evening hours. These storms may result in isolate wet microbursts
and pockets of heavy to excessive rainfall. NAM guidance indicates
that a second band of convection over middle KY/TN will cross the
mtns late this evening into early Tuesday morning. This activity may
remain largely intact across the mtns, but should fade east. I will
indicate likely POPs well into this evening along and north of I-85.
Low temperatures tonight are forecast to range from the mid 60s
across the mtns to around 70 east. Early morning fog will be
possible over areas wet ground across the mtns and foothills.
Tuesday, a second and stronger cold front will approach the forecast
area during the daylight hours. Morning convection will slide off to
the east. Later in the afternoon, a few new showers and
thunderstorms are forecast to develop over the mtns and slide east.
I will indicate falling PoPs through the day, but will keep schc
PoPs to cover afternoon convection. Instability is forecast to
remain limited to less than 1500 J/kg, supporting general storms.
Highs are forecast to range from the low 80s within the mtn valleys
to the mid to upper 80s east.
&&
.SHORT TERM /6 AM TUESDAY MORNING THROUGH THURSDAY NIGHT/...
As of 130 PM Monday, surface boundary will remain south/east of the
area through the short term, with the axis of the upper trough
positioned over the region. Nevertheless, the air mass north/west of
the front will modify rather quickly, with short term guidance
depicting at least moderate instability across much of the forecast
area each afternoon. Lee trough and terrain effects will act as a
focus for initiation of isolated/widely scattered diurnal convection
Wed and Thu afternoon/evening. Chances for severe convection, even
of the pulse variety appear quite small due to modest bouyancy.
Temps will be very close to climo through the period.
&&
.LONG TERM /FRIDAY THROUGH SUNDAY/...
As of 145 PM Monday, a gradual pattern change is expected during the
medium range, with low amplitude troughing likely becoming displaced
by a ridge building into the region from the southwest by Day 7.
Another standard issue/diurnal convective day is in the offing for
Friday. However, convective chances are expected to increase Fri
night through the early part of the weekend, as a short wave digging
across the Great Lakes briefly amplifies the Eastern trough.
Attendant frontal boundary is expected to push into the forecast
area Saturday afternoon, providing a focus for better coverage of
showers and storms, and warranting a 40-60 pop across much of the
forecast area.
Uncertainty increases toward early next week, as substantive
differences exist among the global models regarding the progression
of the frontal boundary toward the Southeast coast. Specifically,
the ECMWF is much more progressive, indicating drying/diminishing
chances for convection early next week. Meanwhile, the GFS tends to
hang the boundary up close enough to the forecast area to suggest
good chances for convection persisting through the end of the
period. Due to this uncertainty, have opted to allow the forecast to
trend toward a more typical diurnal convective cycle, with
near-climo pops early next week. Temps will begin the period a few
degrees above climo, before dropping back to normal in the vicinity
of the front for Days 6/7.
&&
.AVIATION /19Z MONDAY THROUGH SATURDAY/...
At KCLT: As of 2 pm, scattered to numerous showers and thunderstorms
were located across the east facing slopes and across the upper
Savannah River Valley. The convection was developing within a larger
pool of CAPE of 1500-2500 J/kg. DCAPE across the region is generally
weak, 500 J/kg across the mtns to 1000 J/kg across the Lakelands of
SC. Corfidi vectors indicate that the storms will favor a west to
east track, speeds expected to range from 10 to 20 kts. This
environment should support the convection to slide or develop east
of the mtns through the afternoon and into the evening hours. NAM
guidance indicates that a second band of convection over middle
KY/TN will cross the mtns late this evening into early Tuesday
morning. This activity may remain largely intact across the mtns,
but should fade east.
TAFs will feature periods of shra and tsra through 9z. The greatest
mention of TSRA will be given to KAVL, KHKY, KGSP, and KGMU. I will
indicate a broad mention of MVFR fog over KAVL and KHKY with the
arrival of drier mid level air late tonight. Light northwest winds
should remain during Tuesday morning, backing to SW by the afternoon.
Outlook: Diurnally favored shra/tsra will return mid/late week.
Flight restrictions will be possible during any TSRA. In addition,
morning fog maybe possible over areas of recent rainfall.
