What forecasters said that day

The local office's own words before this severe thunderstorm warning went out, as it sent them, from the Iowa Environmental Mesonet's archive of National Weather Service text.

NWS Des Moines, IA wrote its last area forecast discussion before this severe thunderstorm warning went out at May 25, 8:03 PM CDT, 2 minutes earlier.

Area forecast discussion, May 25, 8:03 PM CDT, 2 minutes before

AREA FORECAST DISCUSSION
NATIONAL WEATHER SERVICE DES MOINES IA
803 PM CDT SUN MAY 25 2008

.DISCUSSION...
FOCUS IS ON DEVELOPING WEATHER. AMPLE MOISTURE IN PLACE AS 70
DEGREE DEW POINTS STREAMING INTO THE CWA. SC LOW IN MN WITH A WARM
FRONT EXTENDING DOWN FM WRN MN INTO ERN IA AND A COLD FRONT FM THE
DAKOTAS INTO ERN NEB WILL SINK SE THROUGH TONIGHT. THE FRONT WILL
SETTLE SOUTH OF IA LATE MONDAY MORNING. ALL MODES OF SEVERE
WEATHER POSSIBLE WITH 4000-5000 J/KG CAPE OVER THE CWA ALONG WITH
50+ KNOTS OF SHEAR. THE CAP IS VIRTUALLY GONE AS WELL AND WITH
THE SUN BREAKING OUT THERE WILL BE RAPID DESTABILIZATION ACROSS
THE CWA WITH STORMS EXPECTED TO RAPIDLY EVOLVE AND BECOME SEVERE.
THE SCENARIO HAS NOT CHANGED IN EVOLVING A COMPLEX OF STORMS OVER
SRN IA TONGIGHT WITH AN INCREASING HEAVY RAIN THREAT AFTER THE
SEVERE EVENT THIS EVENING. AS A RESULT THE FLASH FLOOD WATCH WILL
REMAIN IN PLACE.

THE ACTIVE WEATHER PATTERN CONTINUES AS FLOW BECOMES MORE ZONAL
AND SEVERAL SHORTWAVES PUSH ACROSS THE CWA. NEXT SYSTEM HAS
ALREADY BEEN ADVERTISED FOR THURSDAY NIGHT THROUGH FRIDAY NIGHT
THEN AGAIN MONDAY AND MONDAY NIGHT. AT THIS POINT SEVERE POTENTIAL
LOOKS DECENT FOR THE FRIDAY SYSTEM BUT THERE IS SOME QUESTION ON
TRACK AND TIMING FOR THE MONDAY SYSTEM MAKING IT DIFFICULT TO
DETERMINE ANY SEVERE POTENTIAL AT THIS POINT.

AS FOR TEMPS...A COOL DOWN IS EXPECTED IN THE WAKE OF THIS SYSTEM
WITH HIGHS DIPPING INTO THE 60S AND 70S BUT AS FLOW BECOMES
ZONAL...HIGHS SHOULD BE CLOSER TO NORMAL BY MIDWEEK.
