The archived warnings, watches and discussions in force at that minute are drawn over the scan, this one among them.

Did it verify

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

Lincoln, IL (KILX), launched 12:00Z, 11.0 hours before the alert went out and 83 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.

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 Lincoln, IL wrote its last area forecast discussion before this flash flood warning went out at Jun 12, 4:12 PM CDT, 1 hour 48 minutes earlier.

Area forecast discussion, Jun 12, 4:12 PM CDT, 1 hour 48 minutes before

AREA FORECAST DISCUSSION
NATIONAL WEATHER SERVICE LINCOLN IL
412 PM CDT SAT JUN 12 2010

.DISCUSSION...
ISSUED 412 PM CDT SAT JUN 12 2010

COMPLEX SITUATION EVOLVED OVER THE CWA THIS AFTERNOON. MCS MOVED
OUT OF IOWA EARLY THIS AFTERNOON...MOVING INTO JUICY UNCAPPED AIR
WITH CAPE VALUES OVER 3500 J/KG IN SOME AREAS. THUNDERSTORMS
RAPIDLY INCREASED AHEAD OF THE ORIGINAL LINE OF MCS STORMS AND THE
LINE CURRENTLY IS GENERALLY BETWEEN I-55 AND I-57. EARLIER HAD TO
ISSUE A HEAT ADVISORY FOR AREAS SOUTH OF I-70 AS WIDESPREAD VALUES
OVER 100F HAD DEVELOPED BY EARLY AFTERNOON. AREAS FURTHER NORTH IN
CENTRAL ILLINOIS DID GET NEAR 100F HEAT INDEX AT TIMES BEFORE THE
INCREASED CLOUDS ARRIVED.

THUNDERSTORM THREATS OVER THE NEXT FEW DAYS CONSTITUTE THE MAIN
FORECAST CHALLENGE FOR THIS PACKAGE...ALONG WITH ASSOCIATED HEAVY
RAIN POTENTIAL.

SHORT TERM...TONIGHT THROUGH TUESDAY...

18Z SURFACE CHART WAS COMPLICATED BY THE MCS...BUT THE MAIN COLD
FRONT GENERALLY EXTENDED FROM EASTERN MICHIGAN THROUGH CENTRAL
IOWA...THEN SOUTHWEST INTO KANSAS. GENERAL CONSENSUS AMONG THE
MODELS WOULD BE TO BRING IT INTO CENTRAL ILLINOIS SOMETIME ON
SUNDAY...MOST LIKELY REACHING I-72 DURING THE EVENING.

MOST OF THE RAIN ACTIVITY ACROSS THE CWA TONIGHT SHOULD BE IN THE
EVENING. HOWEVER...MAY BEGIN TO SEE RENEWED MCS ACTIVITY MOVE IN
LATE. REDEVELOPMENT ON SUNDAY MAY HINGE ON WHERE ANY RESIDUAL
BOUNDARIES SET UP...AS WELL AS HOW WELL THE ATMOSPHERE CAN
DESTABILIZE WITH ANY CLOUD COVER AROUND. WENT WITH 50 PERCENT POPS
OVER MOST OF THE AREA SUNDAY INTO SUNDAY NIGHT.

PASSAGE OF THE FRONT SHOULD SLOW DOWN SUNDAY NIGHT INTO
MONDAY...AS ANOTHER WAVE DEVELOPS SOUTHWEST OF HERE AND MOVES
NORTHEAST INTO THE GREAT LAKES. WILL NEED TO KEEP THUNDER CHANCES
GOING MONDAY AND TUESDAY. SEVERE WEATHER THREAT IS MORE MUDDLED
DURING THIS PERIOD...BUT IF ANY OCCURRED...THE SOUTHERN CWA WOULD
BE MORE LIKELY AS IT REMAINS SOUTH OF THE BOUNDARY. LINGERING RAIN
SHOULD FINALLY END TUESDAY NIGHT...AS THE FRONT FULLY PUSHES
THROUGH THE CWA.

LONG TERM...WEDNESDAY THROUGH SATURDAY...

UPPER RIDGE BEGINS TO BUILD AGAIN ACROSS THE REGION AFTER
MIDWEEK...WITH TEMPERATURES NEAR 90 LIKELY AGAIN THURSDAY AND
FRIDAY. NEXT SHORTWAVE IS SLATED TO ARRIVE SOMETIME ON
FRIDAY...ALTHOUGH THERE IS SOME DISAGREEMENT IN THE SPEED OF
THIS...WITH THE ECMWF THE FASTER SOLUTION. CURRENTLY WILL ONLY GO
WITH SLIGHT CHANCE POPS FRIDAY AND FRIDAY NIGHT UNTIL SOME
AGREEMENT BEGINS TO TAKE SHAPE.
