The radar
The Jackson/Brandon,MS radar (KDGX), 128 km from the middle of the area, began a volume at 23:11 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 flash flood 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
Jackson, MS (KJAN), launched 12:00Z, 11.2 hours before the alert went out and 124 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
National Weather Service Jackson MS
408 PM CST Fri Feb 22 2019
...FLOODING AND SEVERE WEATHER ARE BIG CONCERNS GOING INTO THE
WEEKEND...
.DISCUSSION...
Tonight through Saturday...
More thunderstorms have developed and are moving up over the
southwestern portions of the area this afternoon. With Lapse rates
of around 6.0 to 6.5 C/km and decent shear, some of these storms
could become strong to severe. A marginal risk is in effect
generally along and west of the I-55 corridor. These storms will
continue to move north into the evening hours, and may produce
more heavy rainfall for already soaked areas along the Highway 82
corridor. These storms may produce another one to three inches
before moving north of the area overnight. We should get a break
from the heavy rainfall during the very early morning hours
through late morning, but showers will continue to be possible
through this period.
A strong disturbance aloft will approach the area from the west
Saturday morning and sweep across the area through Saturday evening.
Anticipate thunderstorms to strengthen along a pre-frontal trough by
late morning in Northeast Louisiana and approach the Mississippi
River around lunchtime. With strong shear and good instability,
tornadoes some possibly strong will be possible across areas
generally north of the I-20 corridor. An enhanced risk is in effect
for these areas. Further to the south in the slight risk area, the
forcing will be weaker, but tornadoes will be also be possible. With
lapse rates of 7.0-7.5 C/KM, large hail up to the size of golf balls
will be possible across much of the area. Further to the south
across the Pine Belt area, the severe potential will be limited due
to strong capping. A strong storm or two cannot be ruled out though.
Another issue on Saturday will be strong winds, due to a very tight
surface pressure gradient out ahead and just behind the pre-frontal
trough. GustS from 40-49 mph are likely for areas generally along
and North of the Natches Trace Corridor. A Wind advisory has been
issued for these areas. Temperatures will be very warm Saturday with
highs in the low 80s across much of the area. /15/
Saturday night through next Friday...
A diminishing threat for severe weather can be expected during the
early evening for eastern MS as a cold front ushers in drier and
more seasonable air overnight for the remainder of the weekend and
into Monday. There is a still a good deal of uncertainty after
Monday and going through the rest of next work week because of
poor model consensus. That said, the more reliable (at that time
range) European model continues to be largely dry through most of
the long range and chances of rain were kept relatively tame.
Expect temperatures to remain generally near seasonal values in
this time frame, although there will be opportunity for persistent
colder air to our northwest to spill in before the official
forecast period is over. /BB/EC/
