What was reported inside it

Time	Report	Where	Remark
Jun 15, 5:01 PM CDT	HEAVY RAIN 0.58	W Robinson, IL	RAINFALL REPORT IN 7 MINUTES.

Local storm reports filed while the alert was in force, from inside its polygon or its counties.

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, 9.7 hours before the alert went out and 136 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 15, 1:48 PM CDT, 2 hours 54 minutes earlier.

Area forecast discussion, Jun 15, 1:48 PM CDT, 2 hours 54 minutes before

AREA FORECAST DISCUSSION
NATIONAL WEATHER SERVICE LINCOLN IL
148 PM CDT TUE JUN 15 2010

.DISCUSSION...
ISSUED 148 PM CDT TUE JUN 15 2010

MODELS ARE RELATIVELY CONSISTENT TODAY TRENDING TOWARD QUICKLY
REBUILDING THE MID-LEVEL RIDGE THROUGH EARLY NEXT WEEK.

SHORT TERM...TONIGHT

BOUNDARY ACROSS EASTERN IOWA AND INTO NORTHWEST MISSOURI THIS
AFTERNOON IS EXPECTED TO PROGRESS THROUGH FORECAST AREA TONIGHT IN
WAKE OF SHORT-WAVE CURRENTLY MOVING INTO ILLINOIS. THE STRENGTH OF
THE WAVE IS SIGNIFICANTLY STRONGER THAN THE SYSTEMS THAT HAVE BEEN
TOPPING THE RIDGE OVER THE PAST FEW DAYS. HI-RES WRF MODELS SUCH
AS OU/CAPS AND HRR ARE INDICATING MORE SHEAR THAN HAS BEEN
RESIDENT OVER THE REGION AS MID-LEVEL SPEED MAX COMES AROUND WAVE.
THIS ADDED INGREDIENT SHOULD INCREASE THE POTENTIAL FOR ORGANIZED
STORMS WITH THIS ROUND COMPARED TO PREVIOUS DAYS. THE PRIMARY
THREAT APPEARS TO BE DAMAGING WINDS...HOWEVER AN ISOLATED TORNADO
OR TWO CAN NOT BE RULED OUT THOUGH GIVEN THAT THERE IS A BIT MORE
DIRECTIONAL COMPONENT TO THE SHEAR THIS TIME.

RAINFALL INTENSITY SHOULD ONCE AGAIN BE A FACTOR WITH HIGH
EFFICIENCY RAIN PRODUCERS. GIVEN PRECIP AMOUNTS OVER PAST TWO DAYS
IT WONT TAKE MUCH TO LEAD TO ADDITIONAL FLOODING ISSUES AND WILL
KEEP THE WATCH IN PLACE. IT IS LIKELY THAT IT WILL BE ABLE TO BE
CANCELLED EARLY IF THE EXPECTED SPEED OF PRECIP CESSATION OCCURS.

ASSUMING THAT THE STORMS DO ORGANIZE AS EXPECTED...THE PRECIP
SHOULD END RATHER QUICKLY THIS EVENING AND BRING IN A VERY BRIEF
RESPITE TO THE MUGGY CONDITIONS.

LONG TERM...WEDNESDAY THROUGH TUESDAY

A BRIEF SHOT OF COOLER AND DRIER AIR SHOULD MOVE IN WEDNESDAY.
HOWEVER...850 TEMPS CLIMB BACK TO 20C BY THURSDAY.

MODELS ARE STRONGER WITH THE REBUILDING RIDGE INTO ILLINOIS BY
THURSDAY. PREVIOUS PACKAGES SUGGESTED THAT ANOTHER FRONTAL SYSTEM
SHOULD BE ABLE TO MOVE THROUGH MUCH OF THE AREA FRIDAY NIGHT...BUT
GIVEN THE LATEST SOLUTIONS...DOUBT FRONT WILL MAKE MUCH PROGRESS
INTO THE RIDGE. IMPLICATION IS THAT THE WEEKEND SHOULD BE MUGGY
WITH TEMPS IN THE 90S AND INCREASING DEW POINTS. SLIGHTLY BEETER
CHANCE OF THUNDERSTORMS FRIDAY NIGHT AS THE FRONT TRIES TO MAKE IT
INTO THE AREA.  ISOLATED THUNDERSTORMS SHOULD BECOME POSSIBLE BY
EARLY NEXT WEEK AS MOISTURE LEVELS INCREASE.

WITH WEAK FRONTAL PASSAGE LATE THIS AFTERNOON OR EARLIER THIS
EVENING WITH WINDS SHIFTING TO THE WEST.
