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 42 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
Cncnati-Daytn, OH (KILN), launched 12:00Z, 9.2 hours before the alert went out and 167 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.

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 Northern Indiana wrote its last area forecast discussion before this severe thunderstorm warning went out at Jul 21, 3:17 PM EDT, 1 hour 55 minutes earlier.
Area forecast discussion, Jul 21, 3:17 PM EDT, 1 hour 55 minutes before
Area Forecast Discussion
National Weather Service Northern Indiana
317 PM EDT THU JUL 21 2016
.SYNOPSIS...
Issued at 315 PM EDT Thu Jul 21 2016
A strong upper level ridge centered over the southern plains will
continue to expand northeast into the the western Great Lakes and
Ohio Valley causing hot and humid conditions through this upcoming
weekend. With this heat and humidity will come chances for
thunderstorms each day as a frontal boundary stalls over the
region. Lows through the weekend will generally range between the
upper 60s and mid 70s...with highs in the upper 80s to mid 90s.
Afternoon heat indices on Friday are forecast to range between 100
and 107 degrees...with near 100 degree heat indices possible
Saturday and Sunday.
&&
.SHORT TERM...(This Evening through Sunday Night)
Issued at 315 PM EDT Thu Jul 21 2016
Hot/humid wx will remain the main story through the weekend on the
northeast fringe of an expansive Central US mid-upper level ridge.
High PWAT/dewpoint air within theta-e ridge will no doubt provide
the moisture/instability for at least low shower/storm chances
through most of the forecast as several low amplitude/convectively
enhanced perturbations ride ridge into the Great Lakes laying out
convective outflows. These difficult to fcst convective complexes of
varying organization will modulate the positioning of said composite
outflow(s), temps, and where convection possibly develops, which
beyond the first period or two is unforecastable.
The main focus for the remainder of the afternoon will be on
timing of line of convection through the area. Established cold
pool with MCS remnants and strong heating/instability downstream
of this line now pushing through our nw IN/sc Lower MI zones as of
19z should help sustain line into ne IN/nw OH mid-late afternoon
despite lacking background flow (20 kts of deep shear).
Lightning/heavy rain/isolated wind damage (gusts 40-60 mph) appear
to be the primary threats with this activity as it settles
through.
Leftover boundary from this afternoon's activity and primary
backdoor front edging closer into the lower Great Lakes in response
to series of larger scale shortwaves tracking ese through Ontario
will keep low chances for storms in the forecast into tonight and
Friday. A somewhat consistent theme in guidance has been to
develop another MCS near synoptic boundary/nose of LLJ over WI/MI
which could survive south into the region later tonight-Friday
morning...with possible iso/sct re-development on outflow Friday
afternoon/evening. Again, lacking flow/forcing and varying
solutions held with a conservation 20-30 type PoP tonight into
Friday. Any storms would provide some relief from dangerous
heat/humidity but could pose an iso wind/heavy rain threat.
A similar story then into this weekend with max heat indices/temps
dependent on convection/cloud debris. Some drier air may briefly
work into our northeastern zones (far ne IN/sc lower MI/nw OH) on
Saturday as primary composite outflow and pooled 70 plus dewpoints
possibly settles into southern portions of the forecast under
slight height rises aloft. Retained slightly higher PoPs later
Saturday Night through Sunday Night as next series of convectively
modified/small scale shortwaves result in a renewed theta-e surge.
&&
.LONG TERM...(Monday through Thursday)
Issued at 315 PM EDT Thu Jul 21 2016
Upper ridge will retrograde westward allowing weak mid level
trough to work southeast through the Great lakes by around Monday.
This process should finally force active frontal boundary and
extreme heat/humidity south by Monday Night-Tuesday. Unfortunately
guidance over the last several days has trended a little slower
with the main frontal passage resulting in a muggier/warmer Monday
and better chances for mainly aftn convection across IN/OH. Dry
otherwise into the middle of next week.
&&
.AVIATION...(For the 18Z TAFS through 18Z Friday Afternoon)
Issued at 139 PM EDT Thu Jul 21 2016
The tstm complex that was over WI earlier today has moved into MI
this aftn with the southern edge into nw IN. Expect KSBN to be
impacted between 18 and 20Z with occasional MVFR conds. Otherwise,
expect VFR conditions with VCTS during the overnight hours for
both sites. Winds are expected to be wsw.
