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 Albany, NY wrote its last area forecast discussion before this river flood warning went out at Aug 28, 5:05 PM EDT, 1 minute earlier.

Area forecast discussion, Aug 28, 5:05 PM EDT, 1 minute before

AREA FORECAST DISCUSSION
NATIONAL WEATHER SERVICE ALBANY NY
505 PM EDT SUN AUG 28 2011

.SYNOPSIS...
TROPICAL STORM IRENE WILL CONTINUE TO MOVE NORTHEASTWARD ACROSS
NEW ENGLAND TONIGHT. HIGH PRESSURE WILL BUILD IN FROM THE WEST AND
DOMINATE OUR WEATHER FOR MUCH OF THE NEXT WEEK.

&&

.NEAR TERM /UNTIL 6 AM MONDAY MORNING/...
AS OF 430 PM...TROPICAL STORM WARNING REMAINS IN EFFECT ACROSS
THE FORECAST AREA. IRENE IS MOVING NORTH-NORTHEAST ACROSS WESTERN
NEW ENGLAND AND IS MOVING INTO SOUTHERN VERMONT AT THIS TIME.
STRONG WIND GUSTS WILL CONTINUE AS WINDS SHIFTS TO THE NORTHWEST
ON THE BACK SIDE OF IRENE. POPS GRADUALLY DECREASE TONIGHT
ESPECIALLY DURING THE EVENING AS IRENE HEADS ACROSS NEW ENGLAND.

&&

.SHORT TERM /6 AM MONDAY MORNING THROUGH TUESDAY NIGHT/...
SURFACE HIGH PRESSURE BUILDS IN WITH AN UPPER TROUGH MOVING OVERHEAD.
THE TIMING OF THE UPPER TROUGH WILL BE TOO LATE TO TRIGGER
INSTABILITY SHOWERS PLUS WILL HAVE SUBSIDENCE IN THE WAKE OF IRENE.
HEIGHTS ALOFT RISE ON TUESDAY...DRY WITH SEASONABLE TEMPERATURES.

&

.LONG TERM /WEDNESDAY THROUGH SUNDAY/...
MODELS AND ENSEMBLES ARE IN FAIRLY GOOD AGREEMENT WITH THE LONGWAVE
PATTERN WITH A TROUGH DIGGING OVER THE ROCKIES AND RIDGING OVER THE
EASTERN PORTION OF THE COUNTRY. HIGH PRESSURE IS EXPECTED TO
DOMINATE INTO MID WEEK WITH UNCERTAINTY IN THE FORECAST GROWING AS
WE HEAD IN THE LATTER PART OF THE WEEK. A WEAKENING COLD FRONT
APPROACHES SATURDAY...FOLLOWED BY A STRONGER COLD FRONT ON SUNDAY.

&&

.AVIATION /21Z SUNDAY THROUGH FRIDAY/...
IRENE STILL IMPACTING THE TAFS...AS THE EYEWALL IS ACTUALLY NEAR
KALB AND KGFL. EVENTUALLY SHE WILL EASE HER GRIP. AS OF 130 PM...THE
CENTER OF NOW DOWNGRADED TROPICAL STORM IRENE WAS CENTERED NEAR
LITCHFIELD MOVING NORTHEAST AND WEAKENING FURTHER. HOWEVER...THIS
WAS A LARGE POWERFUL STORM SO IT WILL TAKE UNTIL LATER TONIGHT UNTIL
WE ARE FINALLY OUT OF ITS GRIP.

THE WINDS WITH THE STORM HAVE PEAKED. KENX VAD PROFILES INDICATED
THAT EARLIER...50 KTS WINDS WERE SEEN AS LOW AS 3000 FEET. NOW...THE
WINDS AT THAT LEVEL WERE 35 KTS. SO WE NO LONGER BELIEVE THE TAF
SITES WILL BE SUBJECTED TO 50 KT WINDS. WE ARE PICKING UP SOME
THUNDERSTORM ACTIVITY ASSOCIATED WITH THE EYEWALL OF THE STORM BUT
THIS WILL BE SHIFTING NORTH IN THE NEXT HOUR OR SO. FOR NOW...JUST
INCLUDE A CB.

CONDITIONS WILL SLOWLY IMPROVE FROM IFR TO MVFR...ALONG WITH SLOWLY
SLACKENING WINDS THROUGH THE REST OF THE AFTERNOON. THE IMPROVEMENT
IN WIND HAS ALREADY BEEN NOTED AT KPOU...BUT THEY ACTUALLY HAVE THE
LOWEST CIGS.

THESE LOWER CIGS MIGHT LIFT NORTHWARD AS DRY SLOT CLEARS OUT MID
LEVELS...BUT ALLOWS FOR POOLING OF MOISTURE AT THE LOWER LEVELS.

SATELLITE PICTURES SHOW GENUINE CLEARING FROM OUR NATION/S CAPITAL
SOUTHWARD. THIS CLEARING LOOKS TO MOVE INTO OUR REGION WELL AFTER
SUNDOWN AS WELL AS EVEN LIGHTER WIND.

DID NOT INCLUDE ANY FOG IN THE TAFS TONIGHT DESPITE SATURATED
GROUND. THINKING IS THE AIR WILL BE VERY "MIXED" IN THE WAKE OF THE
STORM ALONG WITH STILL SOME BREEZE IN ALL PLACES. WE WILL REVISIT
THE FOG POSSIBILITY LATER ON.

A MUCH BETTER DAY ON TAP MONDAY WITH VFR CONDITIONS...UNRESTRICTED
CLOUDS...FEW TO SCATTERED CU DEVELOPING LATER ON...AND THE WIND OUT
OF THE WEST OR NORTHWEST 10 KTS OR LESS.

OUTLOOK...
MON/TUE...VFR. NO SIG WX.
WED/THU/FRI...VFR. SLIGHT CHC -SHRA.

&&

.FIRE WEATHER...
TROPICAL STORM IRENE WILL CONTINUE TO MOVE NORTHEASTWARD
ACROSS NEW ENGLAND TONIGHT. HIGH PRESSURE WILL BUILD IN FROM THE
WEST AND DOMINATE OUR WEATHER FOR MUCH OF THE NEXT WEEK.

&&

FLOODING IS OCCURRING OR WILL OCCUR ACROSS PORTIONS OF THE
FORECAST AREA. PLEASE REFER TO THE FORECASTS...WARNINGS AND
