Local storm reports filed while the alert was in force, from inside its polygon or its counties.
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.

.UPDATE...
Issued at 815 PM EDT Sun May 26 2024
The cold front is situated over the mid-Mississippi Valley and will
continue to move east through the evening and overnight hours.
Currently, a strong line of thunderstorms is along and ahead of this
cold front. Individual cells have formed along a surface trough over
western Kentucky and southwestern Indiana. These storms are strong
to severe and will enter the CWA in the next 30 minutes.
The environment is well worked over from the storms earlier this
afternoon. This has resulted in a large amount of CIN and rain-
cooled temperatures. However, with clearing skies in the late
afternoon, we were able to warm up a fair amount and try to recover.
Given plenty of MUCAPE and shear, storms will be able to sustain
themselves as they move through the region.
With individual cells, threats are mainly large hail and tornadoes.
With the QLCS line, main threats are damaging winds with bowing
segments and spin-up tornadoes. Due to saturated antecedent
conditions and an additional 1-3 inches of rain expected, flash
flooding and flooding is a great concern for tonight. Locally higher
amounts of rainfall will be possible with training storms and strong
downpours.
A Tornado Watch has been issued for southern Indiana and central and
western Kentucky until 2AM EDT / 1AM CDT.
&&
.SHORT TERM /THROUGH MONDAY/...
Issued at 252 PM EDT Sun May 26 2024
Round 1 will be ending over the next hour or two across the southern
CWA. Pretty tight boundary just south of the KY/TN state line that
is the difference between stable and unstable airmasses. Will be
continuing to keep an eye on that boundary to make sure that surface-
based potential doesn't creep back up into our southern tier of
counties before it exits the Lake Cumberland region. Still, with the
near-surface stable layer, expect that 40 to 50 mph winds could
still make it to the surface.
Still expecting a lull in action between 4 and 7 PM EDT before
activity likely ramps up again. Seeing clearing on satellite imagery
starting to move into SW Indiana and western KY. May get a few hours
of heating in place before the next wave development. Although we
aren't totally sure how well we'll re-destabilize we are seeing obs
jump back up into the mid 70s/mid 60s type of obs over southern IL
after an hour or two of heating. That is concerning, and given that
the HRRR has not back off the secondary development, do think we can
still have high confidence in those storms developing.
Speaking of development, it does look like there will be plenty of
trigger. Expect the low level jet to ramp up between 40 and 50 knots
by 00 to 03z, beneath good exit region mid to upper level jetting.
This should set the stage for potential of initial cells being able
to rotate (supercells). Do expect that there may continue to be a
near-surface stable layer, as indicated by hi-res models
consistently, which could limit our tornado threat/keep them a
little elevated. Initial cells would probably have a large hail
threat give good mid level lapse rates and MUCAPE values.
It appears that storms will congeal quickly into a line and then
begin to bow out along the I-64 corridor from 8PM to 10 PM. From
there, it should work steadily across KY and exit our SE between 2
and 3 AM EDT. Once the expected cold pool gets going, then would
fully expect that the stable layer could be overcome and that those
pockets of severe winds could again be mixed down. Still our
expected main threat going through the late evening and into the
overnight.
Will be looking to clear the Watches from Wave 1 shortly.
&&
.LONG TERM /MONDAY NIGHT THROUGH SUNDAY/...
Issued at 252 PM EDT Sun May 26 2024
Monday through Tuesday Night...
Deep low pressure is forecast to reach Lower MI by 12Z Monday, with
a trailing cold front advancing through central IN and western KY. A
trailing upper level shortwave trough will swing across the Ohio
Valley Monday morning as the cold front moves through the region.
This could touch off a few weak showers and storms early in the day,
though most will see a dry start to the day in the wake of severe
storms late Sunday.
There is a slightly greater chance (30%) for showers and storms in
the Bluegrass/Lake Cumberland regions in the afternoon. Slightly
richer moisture and a bit more time for the airmass to destabilize
prior to fropa results in the slightly higher rain chances. However,
precip will be sparse overall. Expect a mostly cloudy start to the
day, with lower clouds thinning during the second half of the day.
It will be breezy with gusts of 20-30 mph. Highs will range from the
mid 70s to around 80 F.
Notable upper level troughing lingers over the Great Lakes and Upper
Midwest through Tuesday night, keeping deeper moisture bottled up to
our north. An amplifying upper level ridge builds from the Rockies
to the Plains as sfc high pressure strengthens over the northern and
central Plains. Largely dry weather is expected with lows in the 50s
and afternoon highs in the mid 70s to near 80 F.
Wednesday through Saturday...
Ridging builds east across the MS and OH Valleys through late week,
resulting in a stretch of pleasant weather. Highs will be in the 70s
Wednesday and Thursday with comfortable humidity levels. Morning
lows will generally be in the 50s, though some spots will see
readings in the 40s Thursday and Friday mornings. Temperatures will
warm back to around 80 degrees Friday afternoon.
A highly meridional flow pattern will be in place heading into next
weekend. Ridging slowly drifts to the east as a Plains low pressure
system moves toward the region. Rain returns to the forecast for
late Saturday or Sunday, though timing remains uncertain.
&&
.AVIATION /00Z TAFS THROUGH 06Z WEDNESDAY/...
Issued at 739 PM EDT Sun May 26 2024
Expect this quiet period to last for another few hours at eastern
and southern terminals. Re-initiation of showers and storms expected
over southern Indiana around 00z. This complex will work SE through
the TAF sites between 8 PM and 3 AM. Strong gusty winds, and brief
vis below 1 SM possible with any storm.
The pre-dawn hours return to quiet, with low MVFR ceilings building
in toward dawn. A few hours after dawn, CIGs will improve. Gusty
winds will remain through tomorrow.
