The radar

The Altus AFB radar (KFDR), 108 km from the middle of the area, began a volume at 22:48 UTC, the scan nearest the moment this went out.

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

Norman, OK (KOUN), launched 12:00Z, 10.7 hours before the alert went out and 108 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 Norman, OK wrote its last area forecast discussion before this severe thunderstorm warning went out at Sep 15, 3:03 PM CDT, 2 hours 41 minutes earlier.

Area forecast discussion, Sep 15, 3:03 PM CDT, 2 hours 41 minutes before

Area Forecast Discussion
National Weather Service Norman OK
303 PM CDT THU SEP 15 2016

.DISCUSSION...
Considerable uncertainty exists with timing and coverage of showers
and thunderstorms into the weekend. Ongoing scattered convection
is driven by diurnal heating and destabilization across the
eastern and southern portion of the area. Further west, low level
flow is slightly difluent and coverage should be much more
limited. Deep layer shear remains weak and so any severe
thunderstorm should be brief and marginal wind/hail. Deep moist
environment has supported very high instantaneous rates in dual
pol, and heavy rainfall amounts in gauge observations. Localized
flooding or flash flooding is the primary concern this afternoon
and early evening before convection diminishes.

Water vapor loop early this afternoon shows an upper low across
norther Rockies moving eastward onto the northern Plains. Low level
response this far south has been subtle, but light southerly winds
have returned to the area as pressures fall across the High Plains.
Surface observations indicate lee cyclogenesis in favored region
north of the Raton Mesa in southeast Colorado and short term models
shift the low east into Southwest Kansas tonight into early
and weakens as upper opens and moves northeast into Ontario.
Thunderstorms should increase across Kansas and into the
Panhandles later today as instability increases and then expand
later tonight, particularly across Kansas, as large scale ascent
overspreads the area. A convective complex should evolve over
Kansas tonight although spatial and temporal details are unclear
at the moment. This may impact northern portions of the area
toward morning. Ongoing convection in the morning across the north
and potential outflow has implications on how things will evolve
in the afternoon. Furthermore, convection across the Panhandles
tonight will probably impact the southwest portion of the area
further complicating the convective evolution tomorrow. We have
maintained high chance to likely probabilities for much of the day
and will refine to convey better detail as we see how convection
to our west and northwest develops this evening.

Thunderstorms may form near and ahead of a cold front across the
northwest portion of the area tomorrow in an area with stronger
mid-upper flow may support more organized/sustained storms and if
enough destabilization occurs isolated severe thunderstorms may
occur. Most of the activity should shift to the south on Saturday
until late when another approaching shortwave supports convection
moving into the western portion of the area and across much of the
area Saturday night and early Sunday. Mid-upper ridging building
in early next week should bring dry weather. Southwesterly flow
aloft indicated by medium range guidance strengthens across the
northwest as ridge shifts east by mid week resulting in increasing
precipitation chances by then.
