Did it verify
Not verified. The Iowa Environmental Mesonet's Cow found no qualifying storm report inside this tornado 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.

StaarmannWhat forecasters said that day
The local office's own words before this tornado warning went out, as it sent them, from the Iowa Environmental Mesonet's archive of National Weather Service text.
NWS Philadelphia/Mount Holly wrote its last area forecast discussion before this tornado warning went out at Jul 29, 2:49 PM EDT, 13 minutes earlier.
Area forecast discussion, Jul 29, 2:49 PM EDT, 13 minutes before
Area Forecast Discussion National Weather Service Mount Holly NJ 249 PM EDT Thu Jul 29 2021 .SYNOPSIS... A warm front is forecast to lift into our region today as high pressure slides out to sea. A cold front will approach from the Great Lakes today and tonight and it should pass through eastern Pennsylvania, eastern Maryland, Delaware and New Jersey early on Friday. High pressure is anticipated to follow for Friday and Saturday. Another cold front from the northwest is expected to move toward and through our region on Sunday and Sunday night. High pressure should briefly influence our weather on Monday before low pressure passes off the Middle Atlantic coast on Tuesday or Wednesday. && .NEAR TERM /THROUGH TONIGHT/... ...THERE IS AN ENHANCED RISK FOR SEVERE WEATHER ACROSS THE REGION TODAY... A Tornado Watch is in effect for the entire forecast area through 9 PM tonight. Most of the region remains in a slight or enhanced risk for severe weather, as issued by the SPC. The threats are damaging winds, large hail, and an isolated tornado. The primary threat time will be this afternoon into evening. While there are clouds clearly seen on visible satellite across the area, there are many breaks occurring with peeks of sun coming through. This is enhancing our instability and as a result confidence has grown that we will see convection develop and move through our area this afternoon and evening. Some early showers and thunderstorms have started to pop up across Delmarva and New Jersey with the main line of storms off to the west in central PA. There is still support for effective bulk shear values of ~45 kts, which will be more than sufficient to support rotating updrafts. Some upscale growth is forecast as multiple cold pools start to be deposited and merge. While areas to the north may see less of the action this afternoon, there is still the possibility for some strong to severe storms in those areas. To the south and east, we have seen much more clearing and temps have risen appreciably in response. Dew points have climbed into the upper 60s to lower 70s, and heavy down pours remain another threat today though the storms should have sufficient motion so flash flooding is not as high on the threat list at this time. However, there is potential that along the frontal boundary we could see some back building so we will need to monitor those areas for flooding concerns. As the storms clear the coast, surface low pressure will be located near the NY/Canada border and be dragging a surface cold front through the area. Winds will slowly turn from the northwest through the night with skies slowly clearing from the west. && .SHORT TERM /FRIDAY THROUGH SATURDAY NIGHT/... A long wave trough will continue to affect the northeastern states from Friday through Saturday night. A couple of short waves are forecast to pass over New York and New England on Friday and Friday night. Any showers associated with short waves will likely remain to our northeast. Surface high pressure is anticipated to slide from the Great Lakes on Friday to the waters off the Middle Atlantic coast on Saturday night, bringing our region dry weather conditions. The surface high is expected to be accompanied by unseasonably low humidity levels in eastern Pennsylvania, New Jersey, Delaware and eastern Maryland. Dew point readings are forecast to drop into the 50s by late Friday afternoon and they should favor the upper 40s and lower 50s on Friday night and Saturday. They may begin to creep upward into the middle and upper 50s on Saturday night in the return flow as the high moves off the coast. High temperatures should be mainly in the 80s on Friday and around 80 degrees on Saturday. Readings will likely not get above the lower and middle 70s in the elevated terrain of the Poconos and far northern New Jersey on either day. Lows are anticipated to favor the 50s on Friday night, and the upper 50s and lower 60s on Saturday night. && .LONG TERM /SUNDAY THROUGH WEDNESDAY/... The long wave trough is expected to remain over the eastern states from Sunday through Wednesday. A closed low may develop over Ohio and vicinity on Wednesday. The pattern will prevent the heat and humidity from building back into our region. Daytime highs should favor the range from the upper 70s to the middle 80s with overnight lows mostly from the upper 50s to the middle 60s. A mid level short wave and its associated surface cold front are anticipated to approach from the northwest on Sunday before making their way across our region on Sunday night. We are mentioning a chance of showers and thunderstorms mainly from Sunday afternoon into Sunday evening. The cold front is expected to nearly stall to our south on Monday as high pressure builds from the Great Lakes into the northeastern states. Low pressure developing and traveling along the cold front to our south should impact our weather in the Tuesday and Wednesday time frame. The guidance differs on the details, timing and number of waves of low pressure, so we will simply keep a chance of precipitation for both days. && .AVIATION /19Z THURSDAY THROUGH TUESDAY/... The following discussion is for KPHL, KPNE, KTTN, KABE, KRDG, KILG, KMIV, KACY and surrounding areas. Today...MVFR cigs continue to plague the terminals this afternoon. Winds are generally out of the south to southeast around 5 to 10 knots and will start to veer to the southwest through the afternoon. Expect showers and thunderstorms through the afternoon and early evening with MVFR/IFR conditions at times between 21-02Z. Winds may gust in excess of 30 knots in and near thunderstorms. Moderate confidence overall with low confidence in thunderstorm timing. Tonight...Becoming VFR after evening showers/thunderstorms and associated restrictions. MVFR conditions may persist through about 05Z before clearing. Winds gradually shifting from the northwest with prevailing speeds 5 to 10 kt. High confidence. Outlook... Friday...Mainly VFR. Northwest wind 10 to 15 knots with gusts of 20 to 25 knots. High confidence. Saturday...Mainly VFR. Northwest wind 5 to 10 knots, becoming southwest. High confidence. Sunday...Some early morning low clouds and visibility restrictions are possible, otherwise mainly VFR. A chance of showers and thunderstorms in the afternoon and evening. South to southwest wind around 10 knots. Medium confidence. Monday...Mainly VFR. Northwest wind around 10 knots. Medium confidence. && .MARINE... This morning... Sub-SCA conditions expected with southeast winds around 10 kts. Seas 2 to 3 ft. This afternoon into tonight... Winds will continue strengthen as the pressure gradient tightens with gusts very close to or at SCA criteria. Seas building 3 to 4 ft. Given the above, have issued an SCA for the Atlantic Coastal waters starting at 2 PM this afternoon and continuing until midnight tonight. Thunderstorms will cross the waters late this afternoon into evening. Winds and seas will be higher in and near thunderstorms. Outlook... Friday through Monday...No marine headlines are anticipated. Rip currents... Winds will increase to 15 to 20 kts today with gusts at SCA criteria. There will be an onshore component for the NJ coast today as winds veer from the south. Given the above, and the 8 second period forecast, the rip risk for Coastal Cape May and Coastal Atlantic will be MODERATE today. The rest of the beaches will be kept at LOW given the orientation of the coastline relative to the wind direction. Winds shift offshore for Friday, so the rip risk for Friday will be LOW. && .PHI WATCHES/WARNINGS/ADVISORIES... PA...None. NJ...None. DE...None. MD...None. MARINE...Small Craft Advisory until midnight EDT tonight for ANZ450>455. && Synopsis...Iovino Near Term...Haines/Meola Short Term...Iovino Long Term...Iovino Aviation...Haines/Iovino/Meola Marine...Haines/Iovino
