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 Sioux Falls, SD wrote its last area forecast discussion before this river flood warning went out at Jul 10, 3:37 AM CDT, 3 hours 8 minutes earlier.

Area forecast discussion, Jul 10, 3:37 AM CDT, 3 hours 8 minutes before

AREA FORECAST DISCUSSION FOR SOUTHEAST SD/SOUTHWEST MN/NORTHWEST IA
NATIONAL WEATHER SERVICE SIOUX FALLS SD
337 AM CDT SUN JUL 10 2011

.DISCUSSION...
A SMALL COMPLEX OF THUNDERSTORMS WILL WORK EAST THROUGH EAST CENTRAL
SOUTH DAKOTA INTO SOUTHWEST MINNESOTA EARLY THIS MORNING. SOME
SPOTTY HIGHER WINDS AND HEAVY RAIN WILL BE THE MAIN THREAT AS THIS
PASSES. THE BETTER CHANCES WILL LIKELY BE BEFORE 12-14Z. AFTER THIS
EXPECT A FAIRLY QUIET AND HUMID DAY. BY LATE AFTERNOON AND EVENING
STILL PLANNING ON A WEAK IMPULSE TO MOVE FROM COLORADO INTO THE
AREA...WHICH COULD SPARK SOME THUNDERSTORMS DURING THIS TIME.
HOWEVER...AS MENTIONED IN THE PREVIOUS DISCUSSION...SOME CONCERN
ABOUT WHAT WILL FIRE IN NORTHEAST KANSAS...EASTERN NEBRASKA AND
WESTERN KANSAS WITH ENERGY THAT WRAPS TO THE NORTH AND A BETTER
BOUNDARY. THIS WILL KEEP POPS IN THE CHANCES CATEGORY FOR THE MOST
PART. WITH PWAT VALUES AROUND 1.80 INCHES AGAIN AND CAP VALUES
LIKELY APPROACHING 3500 J/KG...HEAVY RAIN WILL BE A THREAT.
ESPECIALLY WITH MARGINAL SHEAR PROFILES. ALTHOUGH THE LOW LEVEL JET
DOES INCREASE A BIT EARLY THIS EVENING SO CANNOT RULE OUT ANOTHER
MCS IN THE AREA WITH SOME SEVERE WEATHER. OTHERWISE A VERY WARM AND
HUMID DAY WITH DEW POINTS IN THE LOWER TO MID 70S AND HIGHS FROM THE
MID 80S TO POSSIBLY MID 90S. THIS WILL CREATE SOME HEAT INDICES
AROUND 100 DEGREES THIS AFTERNOON. AND WITHOUT MUCH WIND IT WILL
FEEL PRETTY UNCOMFORTABLE.

THIS TIME AROUND...WHICH DOES HAVE SOME CONSISTENCY FROM
YESTERDAY...THE MODELS ARE HINTING THAT MONDAY NIGHT INTO TUESDAY
WILL BE THE HIGHEST THREAT FOR HEAVY RAIN AND SEVERE THUNDERSTORMS.
A MARGINALLY BETTER WAVE EXPECTED TO MOVE ONTO THE PLAINS AND
INCREASE LOW LEVEL WIND FIELD WHICH WILL AID IN PRODUCING BETTER
SHEAR VALUES. WHEN COUPLED WITH FAIRLY STRONG INSTABILITY A
POTENTIALLY MORE ORGANIZED SEVERE WEATHER THREAT WILL EXIST. STILL
VERY HUMID BUT WITH ADDITIONAL CLOUD COVER MAY NOT BE QUITE AS HOT
SO SHOOTING FOR MAINLY 80S FOR HIGHS ON MONDAY. TUESDAY HIGHS VERY
DEPENDENT UPON CONVECTION BUT WILL CUT BACK A BIT WITH A LITTLE MORE
CONFIDENCE IN CLOUDS AND THUNDERSTORMS. WILL AIM FOR HIGHS IN THE
70S TO LOWER 80S.

HEAVY RAINFALL...ESPECIALLY NEAR HIGHWAY 14 INTO SOUTHWEST
MINNESOTA. SOME LOCAL SPOTS COULD RECEIVE 2 TO 4 INCHES OF
RAINFALL.

RECORD HIGH RELEASES ALONG THE MISSOURI RIVER WILL CONTINUE INTO
