Local storm reports filed while the alert was in force, from inside its polygon or its counties.

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.

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 Jackson, MS wrote its last area forecast discussion before this severe thunderstorm warning went out at Nov 29, 9:05 PM CST, 2 hours 40 minutes earlier.

Area forecast discussion, Nov 29, 9:05 PM CST, 2 hours 40 minutes before

Area Forecast Discussion...UPDATED
National Weather Service Jackson MS
905 PM CST Tue Nov 29 2016

...SEVERE WEATHER ONGOING INTO EARLY WEDNESDAY...

.UPDATE...
Updated for evening discussion.

&&

.DISCUSSION...
Modest atmospheric ascent in an unstable and highly sheared air mass
has lead to a rash of supercell thunderstorms across the
northern/northwest half of the forecast area since early to mid
afternoon. Most of the cells have been following a path parallel to,
and along or a little north, of a diagnosed warm front slowly
lifting north through the region throughout the course of the day.
Model analysis in northern zones is not assessing much surface-based
instability yet most unstable CAPE values are generally well in
excess of 1000 j/kg and many cells near the warm front have been
able to work through any surface based convective inhibition to
generate strong low level circulations and at least a few tornadoes.

This persistent and troubling setup is expected to evolve over the
next several hours as the upper level shortwave to our west starts
to move in and generate more lift. While this happens convergence
around 850 mb (and running a little ahead of the actual surface
front) should work to begin consolidating thunderstorms in our
western half of zones into more a squall line. This squall line will
eventually work its way through the entire forecast area through
early Wednesday morning and potential for severe storms may not
entirely exit the far southeast zones (I-59 corridor) until 5 or 6
am, although hopefully a tad earlier. A transition to predominant
squall line mode will take several hours, but even after this
transition is complete at least a few supercells will still be
possible ahead of linear convection until very late tonight. Of
course supercells will have the highest potential for significant
severe weather and tornadoes but the the anticipated squall line
will still be capable of damaging wind gusts and embedded tornadoes.

Finally, expect showers and a few embedded thunderstorms to trail in
the wake of the main storms by several hours with clearing and
drying ever so gradually taking place late tonight through midday
tomorrow from west to east. /BB/

Prior discussion below:

Tonight through Wednesday...Latest satellite imagery showed a closed
upper low over Western MN. Strong southwest flow continued across the
region around the closed feature. This feature was associated with a
130 plus knot upper jet. On the surface a warm front was pushing
north bringing in a moist unstable airmass in strong low level
southerly flow in response to the developing storm system. A cold
front was located across the Southern Plains. Area radars were
picking up some isolated severe storms across the CWA with a tornado
watch in effect until 9 pm. For late this afternoon into tonight deep
strong shear, 300-400 effective helicity, and instability will
continue to increase across the region which will favor the
development of severe storms with some tornadoes possible. Latest CAM
guidance shows some isolated severe storms for this afternoon and a
broken QLCS for tonight along the cold front. A better severe risk
develops for tonight as a 40-50 knot low level jet and 0-6 km shear
60-70 knots develops. This will help to support a risk of tornadoes
across the CWA during the overnight hours. Timing across the region
will be tough to pin down due to the large window of severe weather
time from now to 4 am. With the strong low level shear in place a one
or two strong tornadoes may be possible. SPC has put some of our
northern counties for a moderate risk of severe with the strong
tornado potential. With the possibility of nighttime
tornadoes,residents are urged to have an emergency plan in place
should Watches or Warnings be issued for their location. This will be
aided by a strong shortwave moving through the Southern Plains. The
models shows a broken line moving ahead of the front across the
region for tonight. The line will be generally parallel to deep layer
flow, which will promote the linear mode of the broken line. So the
primary risks for tonight will be tornadoes, damaging winds, and
quarter sized hail. The line is expected to move out of the CWA by 4
am. QPF totals of 1 to 2 inches across eastern portions of the
forecast area indicate a marginal threat for flooding, but recent
long-term dry conditions in those areas should limit the overall
threat for flash flooding tonight. Heavy rainfall could still produce
localized flooding in low areas. In the wake of the front the rains
will exit the region by Wednesday afternoon. High pressure will build
into the region from the west during the afternoon.

As far as temps are concern lows tonight will be in the upper 40s
northwest to the lower 60s southeast. Highs for Wednesday will range
from the upper 50s northwest to the upper 60s southeast./17/

Wednesday night through next Monday....Slightly cooler drier
conditions will exist across the region behind the front Wednesday
night through Friday, as surface high pressure builds into the
forecast area and quasi-zonal flow sets up over the region.
Temperatures will be a little closer to normal through Friday as
highs range from the upper 50s and lower 60s, and overnight lows dip
back into the 30s.

Models continue to generally agree with another slug of moisture and
rain filtering into the ArkLaMiss by mid-weekend as a low pressure
system develops along the Texas Coast/Gulf of Mexico, and shifts
east northeast towards the north central gulf coast. This moisture
will overspread the forecast area late Saturday into Sunday. There
does remain some timing differences between the ECMWF, GFS, and
Canadian with regard to this system.  With this said, we should
maintain a cool rain late Saturday through at least early Monday as
temperatures during this time period will generally range from the
mid 50s to lower 60s for highs, and lows each night fall into the
middle 40s. /19/

&&

.AVIATION...
00Z TAF discussion

Thunderstorms, severe weather, and sub-VFR flight cats will be a
hindrance to aviation operations through the remainder of the night
and until late morning to midday tomorrow. Severe thunderstorm
threat will gradually wane from west to east from late tonight
through 5 to 7 AM tomorrow from west to east. All VFR conditions
should again dominate by tomorrow afternoon with surface winds from
the west northwest and occasionally gusting over 25 mph, especially
at GWO/GLH. /BB/
