$$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 Kansas City, MO wrote its last area forecast discussion before this river flood warning went out at Feb 18, 11:20 AM CST, 3 hours 18 minutes earlier.
Area forecast discussion, Feb 18, 11:20 AM CST, 3 hours 18 minutes before
AREA FORECAST DISCUSSION NATIONAL WEATHER SERVICE KANSAS CITY/PLEASANT HILL MO 1120 AM CST FRI FEB 18 2011 ...UPDATED AVIATION AND FIRST PERIOD OF FORECAST DISCUSSION... .DISCUSSION...TEMPERATURES REBOUNDING FAIRLY WELL IN ALL BUT THE EXTREME NORTHEAST OF THE CWA THANKS TO PLENTY OF SUNSHINE AND DIMINISHING POST FRONTAL COLD AIR ADVECTION. THEREFORE I WILL BUMP UP THE AFTERNOON TEMPERATURES ACCORDINGLY. REST OF FORECAST TRACKING WELL. ADOLPHSON .PREVIOUS DISCUSSION... /559 AM CST FRI FEB 18 2011 COMPARED TO YESTERDAYS RECORD BREAKING WARM TEMPERATURES A MODEST COOL DOWN CAN BE EXPECTED FOR TODAY. LIMITED MIXING OF A MODIFIED PACIFIC AIRMASS WILL KEEP TEMPERATURES GENERALLY IN THE 50S THOUGH SOME AREAS IN THE WESTERN PORTIONS OF THE CWA MAY PUSH 60 OR SO. BY SATURDAY ISENTROPIC LIFT COMMENCES SATURATING THE MID LEVELS INITIALLY. THIS WILL LEAD TO INCREASED CLOUD COVER PUSHING INTO/THROUGH THE FORECAST AREA AND AS THE LOWER PORTIONS OF THE COLUMN BEGIN TO SATURATE THE CHANCES FOR PRECIPITATION WILL INCREASE...ESPECIALLY DURING THE AFTERNOON AND EVENING HOURS. WITH INCREASED CLOUD COVER AND PRECIPITATION POSSIBLE DURING THE AFTERNOON HAVE LOWERED TEMPERATURES A BIT. FOCUS THEN SHIFTS TO A SYSTEM FORECAST TO MOVE ACROSS NEBRASKA AND IOWA SUNDAY/SUNDAY NIGHT. THE WARM ADVECTION FROM SATURDAY WILL CONTINUE SUNDAY AND INCREASE AS THE UPPER WAVE MOVES INTO THE CENTRAL PLAINS. THIS WILL ALLOW FOR VERY WARM AIR ALOFT TO SURGE INTO THE MID/LOWER MISSOURI VALLEY AND WITH THE POTENTIAL FOR GOOD MIXING TEMPERATURES SHOULD AGAIN CLIMB WELL INTO THE INTO THE 60S FOR MOST LOCATIONS. GIVEN THE WARM AIR ALOFT IF DEEPER MIX OCCURS SOME AREAS MAY AGAIN SEE 70+ DEGREE READINGS. CONVERSELY IF THE WARM AND MOIST ADVECTION LEADS TO THICKER CLOUD COVER TEMPERATURES MAY NOT WARM AS MUCH. AS THIS SYSTEM MOVES INTO THE GREAT LAKES IT SURGES A STRONG COLD FRONT THROUGH THE REGION USHERING A RETURN OF WINTER. MODEL DIFFERENCES REALLY START TO DEGRADE FORECAST CONFIDENCE BY THIS POINT AS THE GFS AND GEM ARE FASTER WITH THE FRONT DEVELOPING PRECIPITATION ON IT ONCE IT IS PASSED OUR FORECAST AREA. THE ECMWF IS SLOWER...LAGGING THE FRONT BACK ACROSS OUR SOUTHERN ZONES AT ABOUT THE SAME TIME AS THE COLD AIR IS SURGING BEHIND IT. WITH THE STRENGTH OF THE COLD ADVECTION AND TRAJECTORY OF THE MID LEVEL WINDS AHEAD OF THE FRONT THINK THE GFS AND THE GEM MAY BE DEPICTING THE FRONTAL PASSAGE BETTER. NONE-THE-LESS...HAVE A HARD TIME DISCOUNTING THE ECMWF COMPLETELY. SO...HAVE KEPT LOW CHANCE POPS GOING FOR OUR EASTERN AND SOUTHERN ZONES AND AS THE COLD AIR MOVES INTO THE REGION TRANSITION THIS PRECIPITATION INTO A WINTRY MIX BY DAYBREAK MONDAY. COLDER TEMPERATURES SHOULD STAY IN THE REGION THROUGH TUESDAY BUT AS THE SURFACE HIGH MOVES INTO THE OHIO VALLEY AND WINDS SWITCH AROUND TO THE SOUTH A WARMING TREND WILL COMMENCE FOR THE REMAINDER OF THE WEEK. CONSENSUS MODELS SHOW A SIGNIFICANT WARMING TREND OVER PREVIOUS FORECASTS AND SINCE CONFIDENCE IS NOT THE HIGHEST BEYOND A FEW DAYS DECIDED TO TEMPER THOSE MUCH WARMER TEMPERATURES DOWN A BIT UNTIL BETTER CONTINUITY IS SEEN IN THE MODELS. CDB && .AVIATION... FOR THE 18Z TAFS...SOME CLOUDS WILL MOVE INTO THE REGION AFTER AROUND 15Z TOMORROW...BUT STILL EXPECTING VFR AT ALL TERMINALS THROUGH THE TAF PERIOD.
