What forecasters said that day

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

NWS Lincoln, IL wrote its last area forecast discussion before this river flood warning went out at Oct 29, 11:49 PM CDT, 3 hours 36 minutes earlier.

Area forecast discussion, Oct 29, 11:49 PM CDT, 3 hours 36 minutes before

AREA FORECAST DISCUSSION
NATIONAL WEATHER SERVICE LINCOLN IL
1149 PM CDT THU OCT 29 2009

.DISCUSSION...
ISSUED 820 PM CDT THU OCT 29 2009

ZONES/GRIDS WERE UPDATED EARLIER PRIMARILY TO ADJUST TEMPERATURE
TRENDS. STRONG WARM AIR ADVECTION WILL LIKELY CAUSE TEMPERATURES
TO BEGIN RISING AFTER MIDNIGHT.

00Z SURFACE MAP SHOWED PARENT SURFACE LOW NEAR TOPEKA KS WITH COLD
FRONT MOVING INTO FAR WESTERN MISSOURI. STRONG LOW-LEVEL JET
EXPECTED TO CRANK UP SHORTLY AS THE FRONT SURGES EASTWARD. WAVES
OF RAIN WILL CONTINUE MUCH OF THE NIGHT OVER THE CWA...WITH DRY
SLOT BEGINNING TO SURGE INTO THE WESTERN CWA TOWARD SUNRISE. DID
NOT MAKE ANY CHANGES TO POPS AT THIS TIME.

GEELHART

&&

.AVIATION...
ISSUED 1150 PM CDT THU OCT 29 2009

EARLIER ROUND OF HEAVY SHOWERS/T-STORMS HAS PUSHED THROUGH THE TAF
SITES...BUT NEXT ROUND OF RAIN IS RAPIDLY MOVING IN FROM THE
SOUTHWEST. CEILINGS HAVE BEEN BELOW 1000 FEET AT MOST OF THE
TERMINAL SITES...EXCEPT FOR KCMI/KDEC WHERE THE EARLIER RAIN WAS
NOT AS MUCH OF A FACTOR...BUT THESE SITES HAVE BEEN TRENDING
DOWNWARD AS WELL. UPSTREAM OBS AND MODEL SOUNDINGS WOULD SUPPORT
KEEPING THE LOW CEILINGS GOING THROUGH SUNRISE.

COLD FRONT WAS LOCATED IN WESTERN MISSOURI LATE THIS EVENING...AND
WILL PUSH THROUGH THE TAF SITES GENERALLY BETWEEN 12-18Z. RAIN
THREAT WILL END AND VFR CONDITIONS WILL GRADUALLY DEVELOP AFTER
THIS PASSAGE. WINDS WILL REMAIN GUSTY TO AROUND 25 KNOTS OR SO
MOST OF THE TAF PERIOD EXCEPT FOR RIGHT AROUND FRONTAL
PASSAGE...AS WELL AS TOWARD THE END OF THE FORECAST PERIOD.

AREA RADAR AND SURFACE WIND PROFILES SHOW THAT LLWS HAS DEVELOPED
WITH WINDS IN THE 50 KNOT RANGE AROUND 1500-2000 FEET. 00Z MODELS
CONTINUE TO SHOW THIS PERSISTING UNTIL AROUND MID MORNING...JUST
BEFORE THE FRONT PASSES.

GEELHART

&&

.PREV DISCUSSION...
ISSUED 300 PM CDT THU OCT 29 2009

INITIAL CONCERNS DEAL WITH FLOODING POTENTIAL OVER THE NEXT 12 TO
24 HOURS. THE HIGHLY AMPLIFIED TROUGH IN THE WESTERN STATES HAS
ALLOWED THE CYCLOGENESIS IN THE PLAINS TO TAP INTO TROPICAL
MOISTURE. WITH ALL THE RAIN FROM THE LAST WEEK AND PW VALUES
AROUND 2 INCHES...THERE IS ENOUGH SUPPORT FOR A FLASH FLOOD WATCH
ACROSS ALL OF CENTRAL IL. WILL EXPAND THE WATCH TO INCLUDE AREAS
NW OF THE IL RIVER STARTING THIS AFTERNOON THROUGH 12Z FRIDAY.
WILL CUT BACK ON TIMING FOR THE REMAINDER OF THE AREA AND HAVE
THAT END AT 7 PM FRIDAY EVENING...INSTEAD OF 7 AM SATURDAY
MORNING. THE BULK OF THE RAIN WILL BE DONE BY EARLY FRIDAY
EVENING...SO WE DECIDED TO PULL BACK ON TIMING TO THE MAIN PERIODS OF
HEAVY RAIN.

WINDS WERE ALSO A CONCERN...BUT IT APPEARS THAT THE VERY STRONG
WINDS WILL BE FARTHER WNW...CLOSER TO THE MAIN LOW. PRESSURE FALLS
AND RISES WILL BE MOST DRAMATIC IN THAT AREA...SO WE PULLED BACK A
LITTLE ON WIND GUSTS LATE TONIGHT THROUGH FRIDAY NIGHT.

SHORT TERM...TONIGHT THROUGH SATURDAY.

THE INITIAL SURGE OF RAIN HAS OVERSPREAD OUR WESTERN CWA
ALREADY...WITH RAINFALL TOTALS UPSTREAM OVER A HALF INCH THIS
AFTERNOON. CONVECTIVE ELEMENTS ARE BEGINNING TO ERUPT BEHIND THE
MAIN AREA OF STRATIFORM RAINS...ACROSS CENTRAL MISSOURI. THESE
STORMS WILL LIFT NNE INTO WEST CENTRAL IL. THE INSTABILITY PARAMS
FOR OUR AREA ARE NOT AS IMPRESSIVE AS IN MISSOURI...AND WE ARE
EXPECTING TO BECOME MOIST ADIABATIC EARLY THIS EVENING. SO
THUNDERSTORM CHANCES WILL MOST LIKELY DECREASE AS WE HEAD THROUGH
THE OVERNIGHT. STILL...OMEGA FIELDS INDICATE UPDRAFTS WILL BE ABLE
TO SUPPORT SOME HEAVY RAINFALL RATES OVER ONE INCH PER HOUR AT
TIMES. THIS MAY LEAD TO LOCALIZED FLOODING...ESPECIALLY IN LOW
SPOTS ALONG COUNTY ROADS AND NEAR UNDERPASSES.

FLASH FLOOD WATCH DISCUSSION EARLIER OUTLINED THE PLANNED CHANGES
IN THE HEADLINES.

EXPECT A POSSIBLE LULL IN RAIN AFTER MIDNIGHT TONIGHT...BUT THE
NEXT SURGE OF RAIN SHOULD RETURN ON FRIDAY MORNING...JUST AHEAD OF
THE COLD FRONT. THE FRONT IS EXPECTED TO REACH HALF WAY EAST ACROSS
THE CWA BY 18Z...AND MOVE INTO INDIANA BY 00Z.

BEHIND THE FRONT...RAIN SHOULD BEGIN TO DIMINISH...WHICH IS ONE OF
THE MAIN REASONS WHY WE DECIDED TO END THE FF WATCH AT 00Z FRIDAY
EVENING. THE BEST CHANCES OF RAPID FLOODING WILL BE AHEAD OF THAT
COLD FRONT. RUNOFF FLOODING BEYOND 6 HOURS MAY OCCUR IN THE RIVERS
AFTER THE FACT...BUT FLASH FLOODING THREAT WILL BE MAINLY DONE BY
00Z.

WE PULLED BACK ON POPS FRIDAY NIGHT BEHIND THE FRONT...BUT DID
KEEP A PERIOD OF LIKELY POPS IN THE SE UP UNTIL MIDNIGHT. THE GFS
KEEPS ALL BUT THE FAR SE DRY FRI EVENING...WHILE THE NAM AND ECMWF
KEEP 0.10 TO 0.25 INCHES OF RAIN IN THE SE. WE DECIDED TO JUST
TREND TOWARD A DRIER FORECAST AT THIS POINT...AND SEE HOW THE
SYSTEM SETS UP.

SATURDAY IS SHAPING UP TO BE A CLOUDY DAY...BUT NOT AS BREEZY AS
PREVIOUSLY THOUGHT. THE LOW IS EXPECTED TO LIFT RAPIDLY INTO
CANADA...WITH A MUCH WEAKER PRESSURE GRADIENT REMAINING ACROSS
CENTRAL IL. SOME WESTERLY GUSTS MAY REACH TO 20-25 MPH...BUT NOT
AS FREQUENT.

LONG TERM...SUNDAY THROUGH THURSDAY.

SUNDAY SHOULD SEE SOME CLEARING AS HIGH PRESSURE AND DRY AIR ALOFT
MIX OUT SOME OF THE RESIDUAL SURFACE MOISTURE.

ON SUNDAY NIGHT...A QUICK CLIPPER IS FORECAST TO MOVE BY TO OUR
NORTH...WITH A COLD FRONT BRUSHING OUR WESTERN CWA. THE GFS AND
ECMWF KEEP MEASURABLE PRECIP JUST NORTH OF OUR CWA...AND WE PULLED
BACK OUR POPS TO THE SILENT SLIGHT CHANCE. THE FRONT IS EXPECTED
TO PUSH ACROSS THE REMAINDER OF THE CWA ON MONDAY...AND WE KEPT
SLIGHT CHANCE POPS DURING THAT TIME AS WELL.

ANOTHER CLIPPER WILL PASS BY TO THE NORTH ON TUESDAY NIGHT AND
WED...BUT FARTHER NORTH THAN THE SUN NIGHT MONDAY SYSTEM. WE KEPT
THE FORECAST DRY FOR WED/THUR AS A RESULT.

NO MAJOR COLD SNAPS EXPECTED THE NEXT 7 DAYS...AS THE STORM TRACKS
WILL BE TO OUR NORTH.
