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 5 storm reports to this severe thunderstorm warning; the first came 14 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

Lincoln, IL (KILX), launched 12:00Z, 8.2 hours before the alert went out and 182 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.

What 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 Indianapolis, IN wrote its last area forecast discussion before this severe thunderstorm warning went out at Jul 13, 1:17 PM EDT, 2 hours 54 minutes earlier.

Area forecast discussion, Jul 13, 1:17 PM EDT, 2 hours 54 minutes before

Area Forecast Discussion
National Weather Service Indianapolis IN
117 PM EDT WED JUL 13 2016

.UPDATE...
The AVIATION Section has been updated below.

&&

.SYNOPSIS...
Issued at 309 AM EDT Wed Jul 13 2016

Upper level disturbances will bring chances for rain today and
tonight, then a frontal system will keep rain chances around through
much of the next week. Warm temperatures mid week will cool to below
average to end the week, before returning to seasonable values next
week.

&&

.NEAR TERM.../Today/
Issued at 309 AM EDT Wed Jul 13 2016

A couple of upper disturbances will impact the area today. Each of
these will provide enough forcing to interact with an unstable
atmosphere to produce scattered showers and thunderstorms.

However, there are uncertainties in timing and effect of cloud cover
on the instability that make pinning down hourly PoPs challenging.

First upper disturbance should generate some scattered convection in
the mid morning into early afternoon time frame. As this is moving
across our area, a second disturbance well to the west should be
generating convection in the midwest moving into the Mississippi
Valley. This convection will approach/move into the western forecast
area late in the afternoon/early evening (approaching 00Z).

Thus tried to time a period of higher PoPs around 18Z or so with a
lowering around 21Z before rising again west. Again there is plenty
of uncertainty with these timings. The uncertainty also precludes
going any higher than chance PoPs today.

Depending on cloud cover, good instability should be able to build
today. Also, the storms that form to the west today could develop
into an MCS that has severe potential as it becomes organized (see
Storm Prediction Center Day 1 Discussion). Thus agree with the Storm
Prediction Center's slight risk for most of the area today.

Stayed close to blend of models for high temperatures.

&&

.SHORT TERM.../Tonight through Friday night/
Issued at 309 AM EDT Wed Jul 13 2016

Focus remains on rain chances through the period.

A cold front will approach the area tonight. This, another upper
disturbance, and the potential of an MCS moving in leads to likely
PoPs across much of the northwest third to half of the area this
evening. Otherwise generally went high end chance PoPs across the
area tonight.

The cold front will move into the area on Thursday. Went chance PoPs
most areas. Models then begin to differ on how fast the front moves
through and how any potential upper disturbances interact with it.
NAM wants to keep rain around longer while GFS dries things out
pretty quickly. GFS looks to be overdoing the punch of cooler air
though so it can't be trusted. Latest ECMWF is leaning toward the
drier side though.

With the uncertainty and not wanting to start a flip-flop trend with
the forecast, decided to stay close to continuity with the previous
forecast for Thursday night into Friday night. This means low PoPs
far south Thursday night, gradually spreading north to all areas by
Friday night.

Went a little cooler than MOS for lows tonight given expected
coverage of rain. Stayed with a blend Thursday. Went closer to the
warmer MET for temperatures Friday since GFS is overdoing influx of
cooler air.

&&

.LONG TERM (Saturday through Tuesday)...
Issued at 309 AM EDT Wed Jul 13 2016

Most of the weekend will be dry and a little cooler as high pressure
builds into the great lakes Saturday and then moves to southern New
England by late Sunday.

A stalled frontal system near the Tennessee Kentucky border Saturday
will move towards central Indiana Sunday and then then remain quasi-
stationary across our region through Tuesday.  Most models begin
rain chances late Sunday or Sunday night.  Anyways we can expect a
chance of showers and thunderstorms after the  weekend as a couple
of upper disturbances move our way along this stalled frontal system.

Temperatures will be slightly cooler than normal over the weekend
and near to slightly above early next week.  Stayed close to model
initialized temperatures.

&&

.AVIATION /Discussion for 131800z TAFs/...

Issued at 104 PM EDT Wed Jul 13 2016

Expect VFR conditions and winds around 10kt except during
thunderstorms.

Isolated thunderstorms are expected this afternoon becoming
scattered this evening. A strong storm was currently tracking
just southwest of KLAF tied to a weak pressure trough aloft. A
capping inversion aloft has limited storms from developing
elsewhere in central Indiana thus far and should keep the number
of storms isolated for several hours more.

By 132200z expect capping influence to diminish allowing
thunderstorms to become somewhat more numerous...especially near
and north of I70. Meanwhile current Missouri convection will have
lots of instability to feed on and expect those storms to begin
entering Indiana by 140000z-01z and march across TAF sites through
03z-04z. A lull in convection should follow through around 141200z
when cold front approaches the area and renews storm threat again.
