The radar
The Charleston,WV radar (KRLX), 102 km from the middle of the area, began a volume at 00:24 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.

Area forecast discussion, Jul 22, 7:45 PM EDT, 36 minutes before
Area Forecast Discussion
National Weather Service Charleston WV
745 PM EDT Sat Jul 22 2017
.SYNOPSIS...
Strong to severe thunderstorms are possible this weekend with
risk for heavy rainfall and potential flooding. Fronts cross
late Sunday and again late Monday. High pressure midweek.
&&
.NEAR TERM /THROUGH SUNDAY/...
As of 710 PM Saturday...
Sent update to remove some counties out of the severe
thunderstorm watch. Rest of forecast remains on track.
As of 354 PM Saturday...
A severe thunderstorm watch has been issued for parts of
southeast OH and portions of the northern half of WV until 10
PM.
As of 155 PM Saturday...
MCS moved across northern zones this morning, producing
generally an inch or so of precipitation. Area in the warm
sector of a low pressure system moving across Great Lakes
region, with sct showers and thunderstorms popping up area wide
in the warm, humid, unstable conditions. With the lower
FFG/wetter soils across the north, and the potential for
additional MCS overnight, went ahead an hoisted a flash flood
watch for the area through Sunday morning. This may need to be
expanded in area or even in time as we progress, but for now,
just decided to issue for the wetter areas/greatest threat
region.
In addition to flooding issues, the potential for severe exists
through much of the night, with strong shear on the order of 40+
kts. SPC has issued a slight risk for most of the CWA through
12Z Sunday, with a slight risk area wide on Sunday for an
additional severe thunderstorm threat, as the cold front
approaches the area from the north. Frontal boundary should be
entering SE Ohio zones towards the end of the period.
&&
.SHORT TERM /SUNDAY NIGHT THROUGH MONDAY NIGHT/...
As of 315 PM Saturday...
Models in good agreement in a significant short wave amplifying
the northern stream over the eastern U.S., which finally drives
the very deep and moist unstable air with the cold front
eastward across most the area Sunday night. Even though the
front gets hung up in the mountains by Monday morning, the
really deep moisture and convection should continue eastward
with the main departing short wave. By Monday morning, we expect
most of the area to be dry, except across the far southern coal
fields and southern mountains where some lingering convection
may continue.
Thereafter, models have another short wave and cold front
dropping southeast through the Great Lakes and across the area
Monday afternoon and night. Even though moisture will be more
limited with this feature, there will be enough moisture to
combine with diurnal heating to fire up a band of convection
with the front. Things will finally die down Monday night, with
most areas dry by Tuesday morning. However, again, this new
front will struggle to exit the far south and have left a few
showers possible there Monday night into Tuesday morning.
&&
.LONG TERM /TUESDAY THROUGH SATURDAY/...
As of 340 PM Saturday...
High pressure builds in briefly Tuesday and Tuesday night with
slightly cooler but drier air.
However, models agree in another short wave and front diving
southeast across the area Wednesday and Wednesday night, with
enough dynamics, moisture and instability to fire yet another
band of convection ahead of the front. But it will be a bit
cooler and less on the summer heat and humidity. But despite
this latest short wave and front, the models quickly lift out
the upper trough and return the front northward Thursday, which
meanders across the area for the later part of the work week.
Again, lots of moisture will be available to keep things very
unsettled with the meandering front, although temperatures are
progged to be tempered by the clouds and precip.
&&
.AVIATION /23Z SATURDAY THROUGH THURSDAY/...
As of 730 PM Saturday...
Numerous showers and scattered thunderstorms, some with heavy
rain will continue to affect the northern sites at least
through 01Z. Mostly MVFR conditions will prevail outside brief
periods of IFR/LIFR along their path. Uncertain whether
convection will affect northern sites directly, so coded VCTS
overnight. Expect MVFR and IFR conditions in vicinity of storms,
along with strong gusty winds.
A look at boundary layer winds indicate 15-20 knots across the
south, and 5-10 knots across the north. The stronger winds and
expected cloud cover could prevent dense fog from development.
However, the northern sites have received enough rain during the
afternoon and evening hours. Post fog will be possible once the
pcpn ends but should not last much.
For Sunday, another stormy day. SPC has the area under a slight
risk for severe weather. Damaging winds will be the main threat.
IFR or worst conditions can be expected along convection path.
FORECAST CONFIDENCE AND ALTERNATE SCENARIOS THROUGH 00Z MONDAY...
FORECAST CONFIDENCE: Medium.
ALTERNATE SCENARIOS: Convection could be less widespread than
currently forecast. Conditions on Sunday may not improve as
quickly as currently forecast.
