Did it verify

Verified. The Iowa Environmental Mesonet's Cow matched 4 storm reports to this severe thunderstorm warning; the first came 6 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

Greensboro/Hi Pt, NC (KGSO), launched 00:00Z, 0.4 hours before the alert went out and 41 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 Raleigh, NC wrote its last area forecast discussion before this severe thunderstorm warning went out at Jul 31, 7:20 PM EDT, 1 hour 6 minutes earlier.

Area forecast discussion, Jul 31, 7:20 PM EDT, 1 hour 6 minutes before

Area Forecast Discussion
National Weather Service Raleigh NC
720 PM EDT SUN JUL 31 2016

.SYNOPSIS...
An upper level trough will push east, from the Great Lakes and Ohio
Valley today, into the Northeast and Mid-Atlantic states Monday. A
surface trough will strengthen over central North Carolina this
afternoon and evening, then drift into the Coastal Plain later
Monday.

&&

.NEAR TERM /TONIGHT/...
As of 330 PM Sunday...

Strong daytime heating within the moist 1.7-2.2" PWAT airmass in
place east of the baggy trough approaching slowly from the west will
support scattered to numerous showers and thunderstorms this
afternoon and evening. A weak shear axis moving eastward across
Central NC will also provide some weak support, but otherwise storms
should be diurnally driven. Moderate instability of 2000-2500 of
MLCAPE coupled with deep layer shear of 15 to 20kts could support an
isolated strong to severe storms, capable of producing an isolated
wet downburst. Additionally, given the high moisture content,
localized flooding will also be possible.

Lows overnight in the lower to mid 70s.

&&

.SHORT TERM /Monday and Monday night/...
As of 330 PM Sunday...

Mid/upper level trough will move slowly east-southeast through the
Mid-Atlantic States late Monday. Nwly flow in the wake of the upper
trough passage is expected to push the weak surface front/trough
east towards the coast by daybreak Tuesday.  PWATS will remain
high(1.7-2.2")ahead of the trough. Near sfc moisture convergence
along the eastward moving surface front/trough and strong daytime
heating will support high chance to likely pops. Thermodynamic
environment will be very similar to today with moderate buoyancy and
weak 15 to 20kt of deep layer shear supportive of an isolated severe
threat/wet downburst.

Not as warm as previous days, owing to increase cloud cover and high
rain chances. Highs in the upper 80s to lower 90s, highly dependent
on convective evolution.

Storms could linger longer into the evening and overnight hours,
especially across eastern areas invof of the surface trough/front,
but eventually drier air should advect into the area from the west
ending rain chances. Lows 70 to 75.

&&

.LONG TERM /Tuesday through Sunday/...
As of 252 PM Sunday...

On Tuesday, the longwave trough axis will shift to our east,
followed by drier northerly flow in its wake, as indicated by pwats
falling from from 1.8 inches Tue morning to around 1.25 inches by
Tue afternoon. Sfc dwpts are progged to drop below 70 for areas west
of I-95 during this time as well.  This relatively drier pattern
will continue through the mid-week period, so look for pops at or
below climo during this time, along with near seasonable temps.

Temps and humidity will gradually increase again during the late-
week period and into next weekend as the sfc ridge axis shifts to
our east and s-sw low level flow becomes re-established across our
area. However, guidance suggest pops will remain below climo given
the mid/upr ridge centered just to our west and the absence of any
well-defined lifting mechanisms.

&&

.AVIATION /00Z Monday through Friday/...
As of 720 PM Sunday...

24-Hour TAF period: Ongoing scattered showers and thunderstorms will
locally reduce cigs and vsbys to MVFR or IFR category. Outflow winds
from storms may result in brief periods of variable winds around 10
kts with gusts to 20-25 kts. Otherwise, expect VFR conditions and
light southerly winds for the rest of the evening and overnight.
Storms should start to dissipate after sunset with the loss of
daytime heating. Similar thunderstorm conditions will prevail on
Monday between 18Z and 00Z Tuesday. -KC

Looking ahead: Sub-VFR restrictions will occur primarily with
isolated to scattered showers and storms during the afternoon/early
evening. Patchy early morning fog will also be possible. -CBL
