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.

What 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 Jackson, MS wrote its last area forecast discussion before this tornado warning went out at May 9, 8:31 PM CDT, 1 hour 45 minutes earlier.

Area forecast discussion, May 9, 8:31 PM CDT, 1 hour 45 minutes before

Area Forecast Discussion...UPDATED
National Weather Service Jackson MS
831 PM CDT Thu May 9 2024

...New MESOSCALE UPDATE, AVIATION...

.MESOSCALE UPDATE...
Issued at 813 PM CDT Thu May 9 2024

Anticipated severe weather event continues to unfold across our
region this evening. Analyzed MLCAPE values near or exceeding 4000
J/kg are supported by this evening's KJAN sounding. A robust and
unstable layer over very warm, humid boundary layer air mass has
set up the ingredients for fast-growing and powerful thunderstorms
as the cap is broken. Primary driver for new storm development at
this time is increasing moisture convergence along outflow
boundaries and the frontal boundary in our forecast area, as well
as from the anticipated congealing outflow boundary from activity
to our west (East Texas/western Louisiana). With the axis of
greatest instability (4500 J/kg MLCAPE) extending west to east
generally between the I-10 and I-20 corridors, and with deep-
layer wind shear from the west at 60kts, any storm cluster or
linear elements should find a favorable environment to continue
spreading eastward. The threat for wind gusts over 80 mph and hail
up to golf ball size remain the primary concerns tonight with any
of the severe thunderstorms. /NF/

&&

.DISCUSSION...
Issued at 317 PM CDT Thu May 9 2024

Through Friday: ...Severe Weather Expected Tonight...

Mid afternoon surface analysis had a cold front nearly along a
Tupelo to Greenville Mississippi line. South of the cold front
temperatures have reach 90F with dew points in the mid to upper 70s.
These conditions were resulting in heat index values in the lower
100s and many sites will peak near 105F. These conditions were also
resulting in surface based CAPE values in excess of 5000l/kg. Local
radars were still quiet in our CWA thanks in part to the capping
noted on the 12Z Thu JAN sounding but regional satellite imagery and
radars showed deep convection developing over the Red River valley
with a disturbance noted over central Texas that is expected to
help develop the convection into an mcs that will sweep east
across our region this evening and several hours after midnight.

There is a low chance that an isolated storm or two may develop and
become strong to severe this afternoon ahead of the main event but
overall, very little has changed from the previous thinking. An
Enhanced Risk(3 out of 5) of severe storms remains outlooked for our
CWA along and south of Highway 82. Damaging wind gusts of 80mph will
be the main threat but hail up to the size of golf balls will also
be possible. In addition tornadoes cannot be ruled out and locally
heavy rainfall of one to two inches in a short amount of time will
be possible. Model consensus suggests that the mcs will be moving
into our western most zones during the early evening and exiting our
eastern most zones by 3AM. Although the severe threat will end by
3AM, the cold front will be moving through our CWA and some
anafrontal rainfall will prolong rain chances into Friday morning.
As the cold front continues shifting southeast of our CWA, much
drier and cooler air moving into the region in its wake will bring
an end to the rain before noon. Afternoon highs will be cooler and
held into the 70s across our north with low to mid 80s across our
south. /22/

Friday night through late next week: Our area will continue to be
influenced by an active perturbed pattern, which will keep rain
and storm chances in the forecast. We start off quiet this weekend
in the wake of the Thursday night system as flow turns
northwesterly. Conditions will turn quite pleasant this weekend as
dewpoints only remain in the 50s. This won't last long however as
our next disturbance quickly advances. Unlike the previous
disturbance, the positive tilt and dry airmass will likely not
give enough time to recover a moist airmass, thus a more
suppressed system. That said, the parameters may be supportive of
isolated strong to severe storms, especially given moderate to
strong deep shear, so a severe graphic may eventually be needed
down the road if trends persist. There could also be some heavy
rain associated with this system, especially given PWAT anomaly as
moisture attempts to recover. However, northern extent is
uncertain at this time. Several weak disturbances will follow for
mid next week with persistent rain and storm chances.
Thursday/Friday disturbance appears to potentially be more potent
with a richer airmass and stronger shear. However, the positive
tilt may tend to suppress this system as well, giving a more
southern solution. Expect adjustments to the forecast as more
details become available./SAS/

&&

.AVIATION...
(00Z TAFS)
Issued at 813 PM CDT Thu May 9 2024

Ongoing SHRA and TSRA across parts of the forecast area will
continue to pose the risk for severe wind gusts at the TAF sites,
with gusts over 65 kts possible with the strongest of storms
before 09Z. Patches of low stratus and variable visibility near
storms will also lead to the possibility of MVFR or lower
conditions. Winds should generally prevail out of the north with
improving conditions for sites after 12Z Friday. /NF/
