The radar

The Nashville radar (KOHX), 65 km from the middle of the area, began a volume at 20:57 UTC, the scan nearest the moment this went out.

The archived warnings, watches and discussions in force at that minute are drawn over the scan, this one among them.

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.

The nearest sounding before it

Nashville Metro, TN (KBNA), launched 12:00Z, 9.0 hours before the alert went out and 78 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.

Area forecast discussion, Jun 21, 2:17 PM CDT, 1 hour 41 minutes before

Area Forecast Discussion
National Weather Service Louisville KY
317 PM EDT TUE JUN 21 2016

.SHORT TERM (Now through Wednesday Night)...
Issued at 305 PM EDT Tue Jun 21 2016

...Strong Storms Winding Down This Evening But More Possible Late
Tonight into Wednesday...

The synoptic pattern early this afternoon features a strong ridge
across the west-central CONUS.  A trough was digging into the Great
Lakes region, bringing swift northwest flow over the Ohio Valley.
This regime will persist through the short term period, bringing a
couple shots for showers and thunderstorms.

Latest surface analysis shows a subtle wind shift just south of the
I-64 corridor.  Convection has formed along this boundary, where
dewpoints have pooled in the low 70s leading to MLCAPE values of
1500-2500 J/kg.  The exit region of a 100+ knot jet streak was
nosing into portions of eastern OH/eastern KY, helping to force more
organized storms across the northern Bluegrass region of KY,
eastward into West Virgina.  Further southwest, the storms have
struggled giving deeper forcing for ascent and less low-level
convergence.  Expect that trend to continue this afternoon into
early this evening.  While a few stronger storms will be possible
across south-central KY along the sagging boundary, think the severe
threat has largely peaked in our CWA.

For tonight, the cold front will stall and begin to lift north as a
warm front.  A strong PV anomaly digging into the northern Great
Lakes will help induce a fairly substantial low-level isentropic
response tonight to our northwest.  A WSW low-level jet will be
oriented orthogonal to the lifting front, which should produce
widespread nocturnal convection to our northwest overnight.  This
convection should spread ESE through the overnight hours, getting
into the northern LMK CWA a couple hours either side of dawn on
Wednesday.  Mesoscale cold pool processes will dictate the exact
timing, which is still uncertain at this time.  Elevated instability
will be fairly high, but the strength of the low-level jet (elevated
inflow) will be weakening as the storms get into our region.
Therefore, a few strong storms will be possible given the
instability, but widespread severe weather with this activity is not
currently anticipated.

The Wednesday morning MCS should move out/dissipate by early
afternoon across the region.  The warm front will continue to lift
north through the afternoon, placing the LMK CWA well within the
warm sector.  While a few additional storms will be possible east of
I-65 during the afternoon/evening hours (perhaps on the southwest
flank of the decaying MCS), think much of the late afternoon and
evening hours will be dry as the convective focus shifts off to the
north and mid-level capping builds in.

The mainly dry conditions will persist into Wednesday night, ahead
of a cold front dropping in from the north. Given this frontal
proximity, winds should stay up Wednesday night leading to a very
muggy night, with overnight lows in the mid and upper 70s.

.LONG TERM (Thursday through Tuesday)...
Issued at 315 PM EDT Tue Jun 21 2016

...Strong to severe storms possible Thursday...

The synoptic pattern at the start of the long term period will
feature a deamplifying ridge across much of the central CONUS.
However, this will be short-lived as the ridge amplifies once again
by this weekend.

We continue to watch Thursday for the potential for a few strong to
severe thunderstorms across the region.  A cold front will approach
the region from the north through the daylight hours.  While there
could be a few morning thunderstorms, think the day will begin
mainly dry across the region as a severe MCS plows well off to our
north. This dry start should allow the region to develop moderate to
strong instability (2000-3000 J/kg) MLCAPE by the afternoon hours.
While upper-level forcing is generally modest, the surface
convergence combined with the instability should foster scattered
thunderstorms along the front during the afternoon hours.  Enough
mid-level flow will exist to push 0-6km shear to 30-40 knots, which
should foster some multicellular clusters or even a transient
supercell structure.  These storms will be capable of locally
damaging winds and perhaps some large hail.

Convection will push to the south and wane late Thursday night,
leaving dry conditions as high pressure builds into the region for
Friday into Saturday.  Conditions will be rather pleasant on Friday,
but will become warm and humid again Saturday and especially into
Sunday as the high pressure shift to the east.  A few diurnal
thunderstorms will be possible mainly west of I-65 on Sunday, with a
better threat on Monday as a weak cold front dives into the region.

&&

.AVIATION (18Z TAF Update)...
Issued at 1231 PM EDT Tue Jun 21 2016

Surface boundary currently lies along Ohio River and will be the
focus for thunderstorm generation over the next few hours. Initial
development will be near SDF/LEX where there is a short window of
scattered storms before activity drops south of the terminals.
Higher coverage and confidence of impactful weather later this
afternoon is expected across south-central Kentucky around BWG.

Ahead of the boundary expect west/southwest winds then later this
afternoon at SDF and LEX a shift to the west/northwest is likely.

Tonight's forecast hinges on the development of another thunderstorm
complex to the northwest which may race across the area and impact
SDF/LEX overnight through sunrise Wednesday. Forecast guidance is in
reasonable agreement showing this idea so confidence in seeing
impacts is higher at SDF/LEX. Later shifts can fine tune timing and
restrictions but for now a period from 09-14z is included.
