Did it verify

Verified. The Iowa Environmental Mesonet's Cow matched 5 storm reports to this flash flood warning; the first came 32 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

Springfield, MO (KSGF), launched 00:00Z, 3.6 hours before the alert went out and 160 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 flash flood warning went out, as it sent them, from the Iowa Environmental Mesonet's archive of National Weather Service text.

NWS Tulsa, OK wrote its last area forecast discussion before this flash flood warning went out at May 4, 8:24 PM CDT, 2 hours 11 minutes earlier.

Area forecast discussion, May 4, 8:24 PM CDT, 2 hours 11 minutes before

Area Forecast Discussion
National Weather Service Tulsa OK
824 PM CDT Wed May 4 2022

...New SHORT TERM...

.SHORT TERM...
(The rest of tonight)
Issued at 823 PM CDT Wed May 4 2022
HP tornadic supercell continues over Okfuskee county and will
likely move into Okmulgee county within the hour. This storm
remains near the vicinity of warm front and a tornadic/flash flood
threat should persist as low level jet begins to strengthen.

Additional severe storms to the west will also likely impact
portions of east-central Oklahoma this evening. Storms still
expected to grow upscale with strong to severe MCS sweeping
through a large portion of eastern Oklahoma late this evening
into the early morning hours.

PWATs have already climbed to 1.8 inches and the threat for
significant and potentially damaging flash flooding will be likely
with any training storms. Tornado and severe thunderstorm
probabilities have already been increased on the Decision Support
Page to reflect current thinking, but will continue to be refined
as short term storm scale/mesoscale trends evolve.

.PREVIOUS SHORT TERM...
(The rest of this afternoon through tonight)
Issued at 138 PM CDT Wed May 4 2022

Warm front is currently lifting north near the I-40 corridor with
upper 60s to near 70 dew-points extending south down to the Red
River. As additional heating continues MlCAPES around 2000 J/kg
are expected along and south of frontal boundary. Isolated strong
to severe thunderstorms have already developed across portions of
western Oklahoma. Latest mesoscale trends, including CAM solutions
suggest that scattered strong to severe storms will develop across
central Oklahoma, spreading into portions of eastern Oklahoma by
early evening in association with approaching upper level jet
streak. Large hail and damaging winds will be likely with any
storms that develop with an enhanced tornado threat along/south of
frontal boundary.

PWATs have already climbed to 1.5 inches over much of the area
and will likely continue to increase into the 1.75 to 2.00 inch
range overnight. In additional to the scattered storms this
evening, convection to the west will likely grow upscale, with a
MCS sweeping through Eastern Oklahoma into northwest Arkansas by
Thursday morning. A swath of 1 to 3 inches have already occurred
just south of I-44 and with additional rainfall overnight, significant
flash flooding will be possible in some areas with locally 5 to 6
inches possible through Thursday. Several main-stream rivers are
also expected to rise above flood.

&&

.LONG TERM...
(Thursday through Wednesday)
Issued at 138 PM CDT Wed May 4 2022

Still a little uncertainty regarding how much atmosphere can
destabilize behind main convection line and ahead of approaching
cold front, but the overall heavy rain threat should begin to
shift east of the region by late afternoon. At least a limited
severe threat will be possible across southeast Oklahoma/northwest
Arkansas.

Dry forecast still expected over the weekend into early next week
with a continued warming trend. Gusty south winds will also develop,
especially during the Sunday-Tuesday time frame. Low thunderstorm
chances return by Tuesday, however it appears approaching cold
front could stall north of the area which would keep overall precip
chances fairly low. Again, stayed fairly close to NBM guidance
through the extended periods.

&&

.AVIATION...
(00Z TAFS)
Issued at 639 PM CDT Wed May 4 2022

Widespread showers and thunderstorms and poor flying conditions
will occur at all sites overnight into early Thursday. Some
improvement is expected as the day goes on Thursday, but MVFR
ceilings will persist through the day.

DISCUSSION...

Strong to severe storms thunderstorms continue across portions of
northeast Oklahoma with torrential rain. Life threatening flash
flooding is likely ongoing south of I-44 across Okfuskee and
Okmulgee counties.

More widespread thunderstorms to the west are likely to organize
into a squall line and push eastward across the area overnight into
Thursday. The squall line will pose a damaging wind threat and
and possibly a few tornadoes.

In addition, the threat for significant and life threatening flash
flooding continues to increase given the multiple rounds of
thunderstorms with heavy rainfall. A flash flood watch is in effect
through Thursday afternoon. Widespread 2 to 3 inches of rain are
expected with locally 5 to 7 inches likely in some locations.

SPOTTER AND EMERGENCY MANAGEMENT ACTION STATEMENT...
Activation of the Regional Spotter Network Expected.

.DAYS TWO THROUGH SEVEN...Thursday through Tuesday.
THURSDAY...Severe Thunderstorm Potential...High Wind Potential...
           Heavy Rain Potential.
FRIDAY...No Hazards.
SATURDAY THROUGH MONDAY...High Wind Potential.
TUESDAY...Thunderstorm Potential and high wind Potential.

EXTENDED DISCUSSION...
Severe weather could be ongoing early Thursday morning and storms
may also redevelop Thursday afternoon along an advancing cold
front. While uncertainty remains in the coverage of storms by
Thursday afternoon, any storms which do develop would pose a risk
of severe weather.

Dry and mild weather prevails Friday before a notable change
occurs over the weekend. Hot and humid conditions will develop
Sunday and persist through early next week. The early season heat
often raises potential for heat stress for any outdoor activities.
