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.

SHKWhat 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 Wilmington, NC wrote its last area forecast discussion before this severe thunderstorm warning went out at Jun 25, 4:05 PM EDT, 2 hours 33 minutes earlier.
Area forecast discussion, Jun 25, 4:05 PM EDT, 2 hours 33 minutes before
Area Forecast Discussion National Weather Service Wilmington NC Issued by National Weather Service Charleston SC 405 PM EDT Mon Jun 25 2018 .SYNOPSIS... A weak front will remain stalled over the area through Tuesday before Atlantic high pressure rebuilds. Another front may drop into the area Friday before dissipating. && .NEAR TERM /UNTIL 6 AM TUESDAY MORNING/... A Severe Thunderstorm Watch is in effect for the entire area until 10 PM tonight. A cold front is currently moving south into the area. Based on surface observations, it appears the location of the front as of 4 PM is near the NC/SC border. Convection is currently being driven in two different locations. The first is for the coastal counties, due to the sea breeze moving inland. The second is further inland, which is due to a mid-level impulse approaching from the west. The expectation is for convection to increase for both areas, with the inland convection becoming more dominant as we head into the evening. There is plenty of instability in place, especially with temperatures well into the 90s and dew points in the lower 70s. SPC Mesoscale Analysis currently shows MLCAPEs ~2,500 J/kg across the southernmost tier of the CWA. MLCAPEs are forecasted to increase over the next few hours with a band ~3,000 J/kg across the southernmost tier of the CWA and along the coast. Low level lapse rates are steep, up to 8 C/km. PWATs are also around 2". All of these and more will help increase the convective potential over the upcoming hours. The main threat will be damaging winds. But small hail will also be possible. Heavy rain should also be expected in these storms. Though, they appear to be moving at a decent rate, which will help to limit the flooding potential. However, any training or backbuilding of storms over the same locations would cause issues. The POPs generally reflect the timing of multiple CAMs and radar trends. The worst conditions are expected in the evening, then improving as the bulk of activity moves offshore. Though, remnant showers should persist well into the night, especially for the coastal counties. Overnight lows will generally range from 70-75 degrees. && .SHORT TERM /6 AM TUESDAY MORNING THROUGH THURSDAY/... A relatively active pattern is likely to persist into Tuesday as a weak front remains stalled over eastern NC while a series of upper shortwaves move through the area. Somewhat drier, more stable air will shift in from the north as surface high pressure builds down the Eastern Seaboard. Better instability will exist across the SC Pee Dee region which will be south of the front. We show 40-50% PoPs Tuesday into Tuesday evening, diminishing Tuesday night as the greatest upper vorticity energy moves southeast of the area. A marginal severe threat will exist mainly along the NC/SC border and the Pee Dee region where the best instability will exist. High temps will be noticeably cooler given the weak cold air advection. Temps will top out in the upper 80s with heat indices in the mid to upper 90s. Temperatures will gradually warm Wednesday through Thursday as the upper ridge builds toward the eastern United States. Mainly diurnal convection is expected each day with the sea breeze the main driver, though weak shortwave energy could also drive some convection. Heat indices may be back above Heat Advisory criteria again on Thursday. && .LONG TERM /THURSDAY NIGHT THROUGH MONDAY/... A large upper ridge will build over the area Thursday night through Sunday before shifting east of the area early next week. Hot and muggy conditions are expected through Sunday, with the potential for Heat Advisories. Mainly diurnal convection is anticipated each day. Slightly cooler temps will occur Monday into Tuesday as stronger onshore flow develops. && .AVIATION /19Z MONDAY THROUGH SATURDAY/... As of 18Z...Radar shows two areas of convection developing this afternoon, one along the sea breeze and another far inland. The threat for thunderstorm impacts to the airports will increase this evening and tonight as a mid-level disturbance combines with a southward moving cold front. TEMPO IFR within severe convection is possible. The bulk of the convection is expected to shift offshore late this evening and overnight, allowing for improving conditions. Winds are likely to shift to northwest or even north late in the period. Extended Outlook...Scattered showers and tstms will affect all terminals Tuesday into Tuesday night. Brief period of MVFR ceilings possible at NC terminals Tue night. Otherwise mainly VFR outside brief restrictions in scattered showers/tstms. && .MARINE... NEAR TERM /THROUGH TONIGHT/... A cold front will move south into the area, then stall over the coastal waters. North of the front, expect light winds, generally from the north. South of the front, expect light winds, generally from the south. Seas will range from 2-3 ft. SHORT TERM /TUESDAY THROUGH WEDNESDAY NIGHT/... Brief period of E to NE flow over the NC waters Tuesday into Tuesday night before Atlantic high pressure rebuilds and flow becomes southerly. LONG TERM /THURSDAY THROUGH FRIDAY/... SW flow Thursday into Thursday night, becoming variable Friday as a weak front drops into the waters. && .ILM WATCHES/WARNINGS/ADVISORIES... SC...None. NC...None. MARINE...None. && SYNOPSIS...99 NEAR TERM...99 SHORT TERM...99 LONG TERM...99 AVIATION...99 MARINE...99
