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 Memphis, TN wrote its last area forecast discussion before this flash flood warning went out at Sep 22, 8:00 PM CDT, 23 minutes earlier.
Area forecast discussion, Sep 22, 8:00 PM CDT, 23 minutes before
AREA FORECAST DISCUSSION NATIONAL WEATHER SERVICE MEMPHIS TN 800 PM CDT FRI SEP 22 2006 .DISCUSSION...00Z SURFACE ANALYSIS CENTERS STRONG LOW PRESSURE ACROSS SOUTHWEST MINNESOTA WITH A COLD FRONT EXTENDING SOUTH ACROSS CENTRAL MISSOURI AND BACK INTO THE CENTRAL/SOUTHERN PLAINS. 00Z UPPER AIR ANALYSIS INDICATES 850 MB MOISTURE PLUME COURTESY OF A 35 KT 850 MB LOW LEVEL JET LOCATED ACROSS THE MID SOUTH AND EXTENDING INTO PORTIONS OF THE MIDDLE MISSISSIPPI VALLEY. 500 MB/WATER VAPOR/UPPER AIR WIND PROFILERS INDICATE NEXT MID LEVEL SHORTWAVE ACROSS THE SOUTHERN PLAINS GETTING READY TO ENTER THE MIDDLE/LOWER MISSISSIPPI VALLEY. MAIN FORECAST CONCERN IS SEVERE WEATHER POTENTIAL FOR THE REMAINDER OF THE NIGHT. LAPS ANALYSIS/WSR-88D TRENDS STILL INDICATE BETWEEN 2000-2500 J/KG SURFACE BASED CAPE...LI/S AROUND -4...AND 0-1 KM STORM RELATIVE HELICITIES AT OR ABOVE 300 M2/S2 ACROSS THE NORTHERN THIRD OF THE FORECAST AREA. DECENT TURNING WIND PROFILES AND INSTABILITY PRESENT STILL SUPPORT CONTINUATION OF A SEVERE THREAT ESPECIALLY ACROSS THE ABOVE MENTIONED AREA AT LEAST OVER THE NEXT FEW HOURS. WILL MAKE SOME ADJUSTMENTS TO FORECAST BASED ON CURRENT CONVECTIVE TRENDS. UPDATED GRIDS WILL BE PUBLISHED SHORTLY. CJC .SHORT TERM (TONIGHT THROUGH SATURDAY NIGHT) OBVIOUSLY THE MAIN CONCERN IN THE NEAR TERM IS SEVERE WEATHER POTENTIAL. TORNADO WATCHES CURRENTLY IN EFFECT FOR MOST OF THE CWA UNTIL 00Z. IT HAS BECOME VERY UNSTABLE ACROSS PORTIONS OF THE MIDSOUTH WITH TEMPERATURES IN THE MID 80S TO AROUND 90 AND DEWPOINTS IN THE LOW 70S. AS OF 20Z...CONVECTION BEGINNING TO FIRE ACROSS ARKANSAS WITH SOME DEVELOPMENT ACROSS N MS AS WELL. A LARGE SUPERCELL OVER FULTON...IZARD...AND SHARP COUNTIES IN AR HAS TURNED RIGHT AND APPEARS TO BE HEADED FOR NE AR. THIS STORM HAS THE BEST SHORT TERM POTENTIAL OF SEVERE WEATHER AND TORNADOES. THE ACTIVITY IN NE MS WILL BE WATCHED FOR BRIEF TORNADOES AS THE CELLS INTERACT WITH A BOUNDARY ACROSS THAT REGION. MLCAPES ARE NOT AS LARGE IN THIS AREA (LESS THAN 2000 J/KG) AND WE EXPECT THIS THREAT TO DIMINISH AROUND 00Z AS THE BOUNDARY MOVES NORTH. FURTHER WEST...THE DEVELOPMENT OF SCATTERED CONVECTION IS EXPECTED TO CONTINUE ACROSS ARKANSAS IN THE PRESENCE OF 2500-3000 J/KG MLCAPES. THE ONE CAVEAT CONTINUES TO BE THE LACK OF AN UPPER LEVEL SHORTWAVE TO ACT AS A FORCING MECHANISM. ANY STORMS THAT CAN MATERIALIZE WILL HAVE A GOOD OPPORTUNITY OF BECOMING SEVERE AND POSSIBLY TORNADIC AS THEY QUICKLY MOVE NE TOWARDS THE MIDSOUTH. 0-1KM SRH WILL CONTINUE TO BE AROUND 250-300 M2/S2 AND WILL LIKELY INCREASE SOME THIS EVENING AS THE LOW LEVEL JET STRENGTHENS. 0-6KM BULK SHEAR OF 40-50 KTS WILL ALSO BE PRESENT. WE WILL RESTATE THE THREAT IS STILL CONDITIONAL BASED ON INSTABILITY BEING ENOUGH OF A LIFTING MECHANISM TO DEVELOP STORMS. NO SIGNIFICANT SHORTWAVES ARE SEEN ON THE WV LOOP THAT WILL AFFECT THE MIDSOUTH THIS EVENING. HAVING SAID THAT...WILL LEAVE MODERATE RISK AS IS GIVEN THE TORNADIC POTENTIAL. BY TOMORROW...A SHORTWAVE OVER COLORADO WILL EJECT EAST...SERVING TO MOVE THE LONGWAVE TROUGH AND ATTENDANT COLD FRONT EAST AS WELL. SHOWERS AND THUNDERSTORMS WILL DEVELOP ALONG THE FRONT AND WILL AFFECT THE REGION MAINLY TOMORROW AFTERNOON AND TOMORROW NIGHT. 0-6KM BULK SHEAR OF 35-45 KTS...MLCAPES OF AROUND 2000 J/KG...AND A 40 KT LOW LEVEL JET ALL SUGGEST ANOTHER POTENTIAL FOR SEVERE WEATHER. SHEAR PROFILES BECOMES MORE UNIDERICTIONAL TOMORROW...SUGGESTING THE THREAT TOMORROW WILL BE MORE FROM DAMAGING WINDS. HEAVY RAIN WILL ALSO BE A THREAT GIVEN PRECIPITABLE WATER VALUES OF NEAR 2 INCHES. THERE IS A SLIGHT RISK OF SEVERE WEATHER FOR THE ENTIRE MIDSOUTH. && .LONGER TERM (SUNDAY THROUGH FRIDAY) VERY INTERESTING PATTERN FOR SEPTEMBER. UPPER FLOW FOR THE EXTENDED PERIOD LOOKS MORE LIKE LATE OCTOBER/EARLY NOVEMBER WITH THE JET DIPPING WELL INTO THE SOUTHERN US. LOOKING AT BELOW AVERAGE TEMPERATURE THROUGH NEXT WEEKEND. THE FORECAST CHALLENGE ON SUNDAY IS TIMING THE COLD FRONT. NGM IS THE SLOWEST SOLUTION WITH THE GFS AND ETA PUSHING THE FRONT TO THE ALABAMA BORDER EARLY IN THE DAY. THIS WOULD KEEP THE DAY FAIRLY COOL AND DRIER BY AFTERNOON. GUIDANCE IS INCLUDING TEMPS SOME 5 TO 8 DEGREES BELOW CLIMATOLOGY...GIVEN THE THICKNESS VALUES AND AIRMASS WITH STAY CLOSE OR A SHADE BELOW. ANOTHER...ALMOST ARCTIC LOOKING SHORTWAVE/SURFACE FRONT PUSHES INTO THE CENTRAL US ON WEDNESDAY AND THURSDAY. NOT LOOKING FOR A SEVERE POTENTIAL ON THURSDAY AS THE FRONT PASSES THROUGH SINCE THERE APPEARS NO TIME FOR TEMP/MOISTURE RECOVERY. THE AIRMASS BEHIND THIS SYSTEM LOOKS VERY COOL. AGAIN WILL SIDE COOLER THAN GUIDANCE IN TEMPERATURES FOR LATE IN THE PERIOD. && .PRELIMINARY POINT TEMPS/POPS...

LOCALLY HEAVY RAINFALL IS ALSO POSSIBLE TONIGHT ACROSS THE MID- SOUTH WITH THE THUNDERSTORMS. .DAYS TWO THROUGH SEVEN...SATURDAY THROUGH THURSDAY A STRONG COLD FRONT WILL PUSH THROUGH THE MID-SOUTH SATURDAY NIGHT AND EARLY SUNDAY. A SQUALL LINE IS FORECAST TO MOVE INTO NORTHEAST ARKANSAS AND THE MISSOURI BOOTHEEL BY LATE AFTERNOON AHEAD OF THE FRONT...AND MOVE ACROSS THE REMAINDER OF THE MID-SOUTH SATURDAY NIGHT. THE THREAT OF SEVERE THUNDERSTORMS WILL OCCUR WITH THE SQUALL LINE WITH DAMAGING WINDS AND LARGE HAIL BEING THE MAIN THREATS.
