The radar

The Mobile radar (KMOB), 79 km from the middle of the area, began a volume at 23:57 UTC, the scan nearest the moment this went out.

Did it verify

Not verified. The Iowa Environmental Mesonet's Cow found no qualifying storm report inside this severe thunderstorm 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

Slidell Radar S, LA (KSIL), launched 12:00Z, 11.9 hours before the alert went out and 155 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.

.DISCUSSION...
Issued at 401 PM CDT Wed Jun 25 2025

Tonight through Thursday Night...

We are still expecting two bouts of storms to pass through the
forecast area as the upper low pressure area centered over the east
central Florida coast drifts slowly north-northwestward to over
southern Georgia. The first complex of thunderstorms is initiating
currently and will continue to expand inland through mid evening,
and then mostly dissipate. The second complex of thunderstorms is
anticipated to occur late tonight through noon Thursday, moving from
east to west in the easterlies. The atmosphere has already become
impressively unstable, and MLCAPE values have already reached as
high as 4000 to 4500 J/kg. Both events have the potential to bring
damaging surface winds from localized microbursts as DCAPE values
could be as high as 1400 J/kg. Large hail up to around 2 inches in
diameter will also be a threat with mid-level lapse rates reach as
high as 7.0 C/km. Frequent lightning and heavy bouts of rain are
likely as well. A LOW risk of rip currents remains in place through
the near term.

Temperatures will average 2 to 5 degrees above normal. Low temps
interior areas tonight and Thursday night will be in the lower to
middle 70s, and the upper 70s along the beaches and barrier islands.
Highs on Thursday will range from 92 to 96 degrees inland, and
around 90 degrees along the beaches and barrier islands. With
surface dewpoints in the lower 70s, maximum apparent temperatures
(heat indices) could be as high as 103 degrees. /22

Friday Through Wednesday...

A very light northerly flow pattern aloft will be in place
through the period as our local region becomes sandwiched between
an upper ridge over the Southern Plains and an upper low over
Florida. Subtle shortwave impulses look to move within the flow
aloft through the period, providing weak forcing across the
region. This, along with plenty of moisture and instability in
place, will give way to scattered to numerous showers and storms
developing each day. With a lack of any notable synoptic features,
activity will generally follow a typical summertime, diurnal
pattern, with offshore/coastal showers and storms developing
during the morning, scattered to numerous storms developing across
southern portions of the area during the early afternoon hours,
storms spreading inland via outflow/sea breeze boundary collisions
during the late afternoon, and activity dissipating during the
mid to late evening due to the loss of daytime heating. Storms
will be pulse-type in nature due to a lack of shear, and therefore
am not expecting any organized severe weather throughout the
period. However, as we typically see with this type of pattern,
cannot rule out a few stronger storms capable of producing gusty
downburst winds. Temperatures will generally be around seasonal
norms, with highs topping out in the upper 80s to low 90s each day
and lows ranging from the low 70s inland to the upper 70s along
the immediate coast. /96

.AVIATION...
(00Z TAFS)
Issued at 618 PM CDT Wed Jun 25 2025

General VFR conditions were noted across the forecast area with
drops to low end MVFR conditions in thunderstorms moving west over
areas well south of Highway 84. This activity may impact
operations, especially along the I-10 corridor. Locally strong and
variable winds are also possible with the storms. Another round is
expected near sunrise, with strong to severe storms possible with
local drops in conditions to mid MVFR levels.
/16

.MARINE...
Issued at 401 PM CDT Wed Jun 25 2025

No significant impacts to small craft are expected through
early next week outside of locally higher winds/seas and reduced
visibilities associated with occasional showers and thunderstorms.
Otherwise, variable winds will continue through early next week with
a light offshore flow late each night and morning followed by a
light onshore flow in the afternoon and evening. /22
