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 flash flood warning; the first came 94 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
Nashville Metro, TN (KBNA), launched 00:00Z, 3.6 hours before the alert went out and 90 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.

EERWhat forecasters said that day
The local office's own words before this flash flood warning went out, as it sent them, from the Iowa Environmental Mesonet's archive of National Weather Service text.
NWS Louisville, KY wrote its last area forecast discussion before this flash flood warning went out at Jul 6, 10:35 PM CDT, 3 minutes earlier.
Area forecast discussion, Jul 6, 10:35 PM CDT, 3 minutes before
Area Forecast Discussion
National Weather Service Louisville KY
1135 PM EDT WED JUL 6 2016
...Forecast Update...
Issued at 1130 PM EDT Wed Jul 6 2016
Zone of intense isentropic lift showing on the 305K isentropic
surface over western KY. With unseasonably high moisture content in
the atmosphere, we are seeing intense rain rates, but latest MRMS
instantaneous rates highest just west of our border in PAH's area.
Latest RAP shows the moisture transport vectors riding up the 305K
surface for another few hours before becoming more parallel to the
surfaces by 07Z. Thus we can expect another few hours of intense
rainfall. Have issued a couple of flash flood warnings, but our
issues are not as bad as those in western KY at this point. The
line heading southeast through Hopkins county now may prompt us to
fill in a warning for Logan, Simpson, and southern Warren over the
next hour or two.
Issued at 841 PM EDT Wed Jul 6 2016
Second round of storms starting up across PAH area thanks to strong
mid/upper level wave passing through the area. Stalled outflow
boundary is across KY/TN border. PWATs are running 2 inches and with
strong 850 mb moisture transport poised to impinge on the boundary,
plenty of training elevated convection likely to set up across the
southwest LMK area. Regional radar already shows blossoming returns
and the latest runs of HRRR show this tracking east/southeast toward
the Bowling Green area.
Flash Flood Guidance is low and recent rainfall has saturated soils.
1 to 2 inches fell just earlier this afternoon. Many areas have seen
well over 3 to 5 inches in the past few days. In coordination with
WPC, a moderate risk of excessive rainfall looks good for parts of
the area and in coordination with PAH, a Flash Flood Watch has been
issued until 11z.
Issued at 623 PM EDT Wed Jul 6 2016
The remaining portions of Watch 337 were cancelled as convective
line has worked through the remaining portions of the Lake
Cumberland region. Steadier rain with isolated embedded thunder will
be possible over the next couple of hours across all of south-
central Kentucky.
Issued at 551 PM EDT Wed Jul 6 2016
Have chopped back the watch behind the leading convection in the
Lake Cumberland region. Atmosphere behind that line is still
unstable, but with clouds and steady light rain moving in, it was
felt after chatting with SPC that the risk of new severe storms is
very low.
Though a few cells have tried to sprout over northern Illinois, it
appears that the best chance of storms overnight will be in
association with circulation currently over Saint Louis sliding to
the ESE. The best chances for convection with this feature will be
over southern Kentucky.
Which brings up the idea of flooding problems. The heavy storms that
passed through the area this afternoon didn't result in any known
flood issues, but the ground is now primed. Any additional heavy
rainfall will cause problems. After chatting with WPC, have decided
that confidence isn't quite there yet for a Flash Flood Watch, but
we will need to keep an eye on upstream convection and incoming
model data. A watch may be needed later this evening for the
overnight hours if confidence increases. Highest model-indicated QPF
right now is mostly over mid-Tennessee.
.SHORT TERM (Now through Thursday Night)...
Issued at 319 PM EDT Wed Jul 6 2016
Many challenges in the short term, with each subsequent period's
weather largely dependent on what happened in the previous period.
For right now, it does look like the storms coming in from the west
will proceed into southern Kentucky and then possibly shift
southward into mid Tennessee. In addition, scattered storms will
arise in the unstable atmosphere over the rest of central Kentucky
south of the outflow boundary from this morning's MCS. Severe
weather in the form of strong gusty winds will be possible as a
result during the late afternoon/early evening hours.
Talked with neighboring offices about the possibility of a Flash
Flood Watch. Three to over five inches of rain have fallen on the
southwest 2/3rds of the CWA over the past three days. The system
coming in from western Kentucky is progressive and the storms
popping up over central Kentucky are small in individual size. While
local flooding issues are possible under the strongest downpours, it
was felt that widespread flooding would be unlikely and we would
hold off on a watch for now. However if the western KY system gels
with storms over central Kentucky and forms a large area of heavy
showers and storms, a headline may become necessary.
Thunderstorm chances for the remainder of the night are in question.
Currently keeping an eye on eastern Iowa and northern Illinois for
renewed thunderstorm development. If storms do go up there, they may
coalesce into another MCS. 850-300 flow would take it due east, but
as was shown by this morning's MCS, if it can get a good cold pool
going it could dive to the SE. Lots of "if"s. Bottom line, we'll
hold on to storm chances through the night. That is in line with the
above scenario, and also with other model solutions that re-fire
convection in the Ohio Valley overnight.
More "if"s tomorrow. If we do have morning storms, they should clear
out early enough for redevelopment in the afternoon. Though we'll be
well in the warm sector ahead of a cold front over the Midwest and a
warm from there to the upper Ohio Valley, the trigger for new storms
may come in the form of a 5H wave coming in from the west by late
afternoon/evening. There will also be upstream convection over the
Midwest that could spread this way, or at least send out an outflow
boundary for storms to form on.
Any storms Thursday should wane diurnally Thursday night. MCS
development will again be possible over the Midwest Thursday night,
but it appears that if one does form it would move more to the east
rather than southeast, along the aforementioned warm front and in
deep westerly flow. So, it would stay to our north.
Hot, humid weather will contniue. Heat index readings will peak
around 100 Thursday afternoon.
.LONG TERM (Friday through Wednesday)...
Issued at 323 PM EDT Wed Jul 6 2016
Friday an actual cold front will move in from the northwest,
crossing the region during the evening. Much of the day will
probably be quiet, but storms may erupt in the late afternoon and
continue into the evening hours as we destabilize and the front
plows through. Shear will be unimpressive, freezing levels high, and
there will be some capping to overcome, but some strong wind gusts
will be possible in the storms.
Heat index values will again peak around 100 degrees in the
afternoon.
After a mostly dry weekend behind the departing cold front, early
next week we'll get into warm, unstable return flow with largely
diurnal thunderstorm chances each day.
&&
.AVIATION (00Z TAF Update)...
Issued at 715 PM EDT Wed Jul 6 2016
Initial complex of storms has rolled through central Kentucky and it
leaves a steady rain with embedded isolated thunder across south-
central Kentucky this hour. This should continue for a few more
hours before dissipating.
Forecast tonight is very conditional on what happens near STL and
whether another complex of storms initiates. Latest radar does show
isolated cells popping up and if this grows upscale like the HRRR
suggests, then another line of storms may impact BWG after 06z. At
SDF/LEX, the trend is for this to stay south.
Otherwise, the moist low-levels and lighter winds near the surface
will promote the typical summer MVFR vis around sunrise with some
SCT stratus around as well. This should mix out by 12-13z.
The bulk of the day Thursday should be dry with southerly flow
before another round of storms possibly comes into the area toward
21-00z.
