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.

.SHORT TERM...
(Today)
Issued at 345 AM CDT Fri Apr 4 2025
Widespread showers and thunderstorms will overspread the area
early this morning, with the potential for large hail with the
strongest storms. A second round of showers and storms is expected
this afternoon, with the strongest storms at that time from far
southeast and eastern Oklahoma into western Arkansas. The stalled
frontal boundary just southeast of the area at this time may lift
a bit north ahead of this second round of storms, and any
locations that end up south of the boundary will have an all
hazard severe threat, with large hail, damaging winds, and
tornadoes all possible with this second round of storms.
Heavy rainfall will also be a concern, especially from southeast
Oklahoma into northwest Arkansas, where a flood watch remains in
effect.
&&
.LONG TERM...
(Tonight through Thursday)
Issued at 345 AM CDT Fri Apr 4 2025
A relative lull in precipitation coverage and intensity is
expected for much of tonight before the next round of showers,
storms, and heavy rainfall moves in late tonight and early
Saturday morning. The severe weather threat will likely be a bit
lower by this time as the frontal boundary will have sagged
farther southeast overnight. Once again the heaviest rainfall will
be from southeast Oklahoma into northwest Arkansas with this round
of precipitation.
As the main upper system moves across late Saturday night and
early Sunday morning rain may mix with or change to snow across
parts of northeast Oklahoma and northwest Arkansas. With surface
temperatures likely to remain several degrees above freezing,
little or no snow accumulation is expected. With skies clearing by
Sunday night, some places will fall to near or below freezing by
early Monday morning.
An extended period of quiet weather is then expected next week,
with temperatures warming back above normal for much of the week.
&&
.AVIATION...
(06Z TAFS)
Issued at 1243 AM CDT Fri Apr 4 2025
Flying conditions remain poor to very poor through the forecast
period across all sites. MVFR cigs have expanded to much of the
area, likely falling to IFR by the early morning hours. IFR cigs
are expected to persist for the remainder of the period. Several
chances of showers and thunderstorms expected over the next 24
hours... especially across SE OK and NW AR sites. Thunderstorm
activity appears to be strongest/ most widespread between 10-15z
and again 20-02z. Storms during these time frames may be severe
with large hail and gusty, erratic winds. Vsbys are likely to drop
considerably during heaviest rainfall. Precipitation will tend to
dwindle after 02z, before increasing again shortly after the
forecast period. Outside of thunderstorm activity, north/northeast
winds near 5-15 kts expected for much of the period, except
across far SE OK/ W-Central AR where a warm front may promote a
temporary wind shift this morning/ afternoon.

DISCUSSION...
Scattered to numerous thunderstorms will continue this morning
across eastern Oklahoma into western Arkansas, with an elevated
severe weather risk. Large hail to 2 inches in diameter is the
primary threat, with locally damaging winds also possible.
After a relative lull in the storm activity around midday,
thunderstorms are expected to redevelop during the afternoon
across far eastern Oklahoma into western Arkansas near a
retreating frontal boundary, with an elevated to significant risk
of severe weather. If the frontal boundary retreats far enough to
the north, environmental conditions will favor all modes of
severe weather, including large hail, locally damaging winds, and
tornadoes. This threat will shift to the east early this evening.
Multiple rounds of thunderstorms between today and Saturday are
expected to yield rainfall totals in the 4 to 8 inch range across
far southeast Oklahoma into west central Arkansas, with 3 to 5
inches across the rest of southeast Oklahoma into far northwest
Arkansas. Isolated totals over 8 inches are possible. The heavy
rainfall is likely to result in some dangerous flash flooding and
main-stem river flooding that will likely linger into early next
week.

Activation of the Regional Spotter Network Expected.
.DAYS TWO THROUGH SEVEN...Saturday through Thursday.
SATURDAY...Thunderstorm Potential...High Wind Potential...
Heavy Rain Potential.
SUNDAY...Winter Weather Potential...High Wind Potential.
MONDAY through THURSDAY...No Hazards.
EXTENDED DISCUSSION...
Rain may mix with or change to snow across parts of northeast
Oklahoma and northwest Arkansas before ending late Saturday night
into early Sunday. As mentioned above, main-stem river flooding
will likely linger into early next week, otherwise an extended
period of quiet weather is expected next week.
EMERGENCY MANAGEMENT PLANNING STATEMENT...
Severe weather and flooding impacts are likely to impact parts of
eastern Oklahoma and northwest Arkansas now through the weekend.
Multiple periods of response may be required.
