What forecasters said that day

The local office's own words before this severe thunderstorm warning went out, as it sent them, from the Iowa Environmental Mesonet's archive of National Weather Service text.

NWS North Platte, NE wrote its last area forecast discussion before this severe thunderstorm warning went out at Jul 10, 3:00 PM CDT, 6 hours 58 minutes earlier.

Area forecast discussion, Jul 10, 3:00 PM CDT, 6 hours 58 minutes before

AREA FORECAST DISCUSSION
NATIONAL WEATHER SERVICE NORTH PLATTE NE
300 PM CDT SUN JUL 10 2011

.DISCUSSION...HOT AND HUMID WEATHER CONTINUES.  THE UPPER LEVEL
PATTERN SHOWS A RIDGE OF WARM ARE ACROSS THE CENTRAL US. OVER THE
NEXT FEW DAYS THIS AXIS SHOULD MOVE EAST AND ALLOW SOUTHWEST FLOW
ALOFT AND ALLOW ANY THUNDERSTORMS WHICH DO OCCUR TO BECOME EFFICIENT
HEAVY RAIN PRODUCERS. THESE BOTH WILL HELP TO BRING A BREAK TO THE
WARM TEMPERATURES TUESDAY AND WEDNESDAY.  BY THE END OF THE WEEK
HOWEVER THE AXIS OF WARM AIR WILL MOVE BACK OVER THE STATE AND BRING
PERHAPS SOME OF THE WARMEST TEMPERATURES OF THE SUMMER.

.TONIGHT AND MONDAY...FORECAST CONCERNS THROUGH THIS PERIOD ARE
FOCUSED ON PRECIPITATION CHANCES AS WELL AS TEMPERATURES ON MONDAY.

EXPECTING CONVECTION TO DEVELOP OVER NORTHERN COLORADO THIS
AFTERNOON AND PUSH EASTWARD ACROSS THE SOUTHERN PARTS OF THE
FORECAST AREA TONIGHT. THERE WILL BE PLENTY OF INSTABILITY TO WORK
WITH AND WITH THE PASSING OF A WEAK SHORTWAVE TROUGH ALOFT...BELIEVE
THERE WILL BE ENOUGH FORCING TO KEEP THUNDERSTORMS GOING THROUGH AS
THEY MOVE THROUGH. BESIDES THE ACTIVITY EXPECTED TO MOVE ACROSS
SOUTHERN NEBRASKA...MAY GET SOME FURTHER DEVELOPMENT ON THE NORTH
BUT WITH LESSER CONFIDENCE ON THIS HAVE TRENDED PRECIPITATION
CHANCES SOUTHWARD FOR TONIGHT. IN TERMS OF SEVERE CHANCES...MU CAPES
AT 03Z ARE INDICATED TO BE 2K TO 4K J/KG AND DEEP LAYER SHEAR AT
AROUND 30 TO 35KTS THIS AFTERNOON LOOKS TO INCREASE TO AROUND 45KTS
THIS EVENING ACCORDING TO THE LATEST RUC. IN DAYS PAST...35 TO 40KT
SHEAR HAS NOT BEEN ENOUGH TO GET ENOUGH TILT IN STORMS TO SUPPORT
HAIL THREATS SO AS SHEAR LOOKS TO BE STRONGER HAVE A BIT HIGHER
CONFIDENCE THAT LARGE HAIL WOULD BE A POSSIBILITY IF STORMS DO MOVE
ACROSS THE AREA. MAY ALSO HAVE A WIND THREAT AS STORMS ORGANIZE INTO
A LINE MOVING ACROSS SOUTHERN NEBRASKA.

A SHORTWAVE TROUGH WILL MIGRATE ACROSS THE AREA FROM EASTERN
COLORADO INTO NORTHEAST NEBRASKA ON MONDAY. THE WARM FRONT
TO THE SOUTH WILL LIFT NORTH THROUGH THE DAY WITH THUNDERSTORMS
DEVELOPING ALONG AND NORTH OF THE FRONT. AGAIN...LOOKS
LIKE MORE OF AN AFTERNOON THREAT DUE TO DAYTIME HEATING/INCREASED
INSTABILITY...AND TIMING OF SHORTWAVE. HOWEVER MAY GET CLOUDS MOVING
IN AHEAD OF THE WAVE SO WHERE THE CLOUDS AND PRECIPITATION SET UP
MAY HAVE AN IMPACT ON HIGH TEMPERATURES...AND HAVE LOWERED HIGHS A
FEW DEGREES. THE WARM FRONT LOOKS TO STAY JUST TO THE SOUTH OF THE
FORECAST AREA THROUGH THE DAY...BUT THIS WILL HAVE TO BE WATCHED AS
EVEN A SLIGHT SHIFT NORTHWARD COULD CAUSE A BIG DIFFERENCE IN
TEMPERATURES AS LOCATIONS TO THE SOUTH OF THIS FRONT THE PAST FEW
DAYS HAVE SEEN HIGHS AROUND AND EXCEEDING 100F. SO IF THE WARM FRONT
DOES PUSH FURTHER NORTH HIGHS WILL BE TOO COOL. SEVERE STORMS ARE
AGAIN A POSSIBILITY...BUT RATHER THAN ACROSS SOUTHERN NEBRASKA...THE
THREAT WILL SHIFT INTO NORTHERN NEBRASKA. WITH MOIST EASTERLY FLOW
NORTH OF THE FRONT WILL SEE MU CAPES OF 2K TO 4K J/KG AND MODELS ARE
INDICATING SHEAR OF OF 40 TO 45KTS INTO EARLY EVENING MAINLY IN
LOCATIONS NORTH OF HIGHWAY 2 TO SUPPORT SUPERCELL DEVELOPMENT.
ALTHOUGH MAIN THREATS WILL BE HAIL AND WINDS...HODOGRAPHS INDICATING
A TORNADO CANNOT BE RULED OUT. HEAVY RAIN IS ALSO A THREAT FOR
TONIGHT AND MONDAY...SEE HYDROLOGY SECTION BELOW FOR DETAILS.

TUESDAY AND WEDNESDAY...CLOUDS AND STORMS WILL DOMINATE BOTH DAYS
WITH COOLER TEMPERATURES AND ONGOING PRECIPITATION. A SURFACE LOW
WILL HELP TO FOCUS ADDITIONAL CONVECTION ALONG AND NORTH OF A
SURFACE WARM FRONT ACROSS KANSAS. DO NOT EXPECT SEVERE WEATHER SO
MUCH AS HEAVY RAIN HOWEVER. PRECIPITABLE WATER 0Z TUESDAY WILL RANGE
FROM 1.5 TO 2.0 INCHES ACCORDING TO THE GFS AND CONTINUE IN THAT
RANGE FOR MUCH OF THE AREA THROUGH 0Z THURSDAY. SHOWERS AND
THUNDERSTORMS WILL NOT BE CONTINUOUS...RATHER THERE WILL BE A BREAK
BETWEEN THUNDERSTORM COMPLEXES WITH THE LONGEST PAUSE EXPECTED
DURING THE DAY TUESDAY. THIS CONCLUSION IS SHOWN IN EACH MODEL
HOWEVER EUROPEAN AND GEM SHOW THE PRECIPITATION TO BE SHIFTED ACROSS
NORTHERN PORTIONS OF THE AREA.

BY THURSDAY...THE UPPER LEVEL RIDGE AXIS WILL RETURN WEST AND
AMPLIFY UP THROUGH THE STATE. HEAT AND HUMIDITY WILL RETURN
TEMPERATURES INTO THE MID AND PERHAPS UPPER 90S. THIS STRONG WARMING
WILL ALSO LIMIT THUNDERSTORM CHANCES AS WE BEGIN TO SEE WARM AIR
ALOFT AND A CAP OF WARMER TEMPERATURES ALOFT.

LOOKING TO FRIDAY AND INTO THE WEEKEND WE WILL CONTINUE ABOVE NORMAL
TEMPERATURES AND PERHAPS BE CAPPED BUT FOR NOW WILL CONTINUE A FEW
CHANCES OF THUNDERSTORMS. A SURFACE LOW WILL BE WELL NORTH OF THE
AREA WITH A DRYLINE ACROSS THE EASTERN PANHANDLE AND A POSSIBLE
SOURCE OF THUNDERSTORMS.

&&

.AVIATION...
FORECAST CONCERNS FOR THE AVIATION COMMUNITY THROUGH MONDAY
AFTERNOON LIE WITH THUNDERSTORM CHANCES AS VARIABLE LIGHT WINDS ARE
EXPECTED THROUGH THE PERIOD WITH LITTLE OR NO CEILING OR VISIBILITY
RESTRICTIONS. DID PUT 5SM IN FOG AT KLBF AROUND THE 11Z TIME
THINKING BOUNDARY LAYER MOISTURE WILL BE HIGH AFTER OVERNIGHT
RAINFALL AND LIGHT WINDS TO KEEP THE AIR FROM BEING STIRRED MUCH.
NOT TERRIBLY CONFIDENT ON THIS THOUGH. THUNDERSTORM CHANCES WILL BE
HIGHEST AT THE KLBF TERMINAL THIS EVENING AS IT IS EXPECTED FOR
ACTIVITY FROM COLORADO TO SHIFT EAST ACROSS THE AREA. THEN ON MONDAY
A WARM FRONT ACROSS KANSAS WILL LIFT NORTH AND WILL SERVE AS A FOCUS
POINT FOR DEVELOPMENT OF THUNDERSTORMS. THE MOST LIKELY AREA FOR
STORMS ON MONDAY WILL BE ACROSS NORTHERN NEBRASKA...AFFECTING THE
KVTN TERMINAL BUT SHOULD BE AFTER 18Z.

&&

.HYDROLOGY...
VERY MOIST AND ANOMALOUS AIR CONTINUES TO SIT ACROSS THE AREA.
PRECIPITABLE WATER VALUE WAS 1.32 INCHES AT LBF AT 12Z THIS
MORNING...WHICH IS 139 PERCENT OF NORMAL. THESE VALUES ARE LIKELY TO
INCREASE AS MOISTURE POOLS ON THE NORTH SIDE OF THE WARM FRONT
LIFTING INTO NEBRASKA ON MONDAY. BY MONDAY NIGHT...THE GFS IS
SIGNALING UPWARDS OF 2.00 INCHES WHICH WELL EXCEEDS THE 2 STANDARD
DEVIATIONS ABOVE NORMAL AND COULD BE AN INDICATOR OF RECORD
RAINFALLS. IN ADDITION...WARM CLOUD DEPTHS TONIGHT OVER SOUTHERN
NEBRASKA APPROACH 4000 M...THEN ON MONDAY NIGHT AND TUESDAY REACH
THOSE DEPTHS AGAIN ACROSS THE ENTIRE AREA INDICATING STORMS CAN BE
VERY EFFICIENT RAINFALL PRODUCERS. THESE FACTORS...ALONG WITH STORM
MOTIONS THAT AREA/T TOO RAPID INDICATE HEAVY RAINS WITH FLASH
FLOODING WILL ALSO BE A THREAT OVER THE NEXT SEVERAL DAYS. SOMETHING
TO CONSIDER IS THAT THE NORTHERN PARTS OF THE FORECAST AREA HAVE NOT
SEEN A GREAT DEAL OF RAIN IN THE LAST WEEK SO CAN TAKE MORE RAINFALL
AND AS THE THREAT SHIFTS INTO THESE AREAS ON MONDAY AND WITH SOME
UNCERTAINTY STILL ON WHERE THE HEAVIEST RAINS WILL FALL DON/T SEE A
NEED FOR A FLASH FLOOD WATCH IN ANY LOCATION AT THIS TIME.

AFTERNOON AND MONDAY NIGHT. AGAIN...HEAVY RAINFALL WITH LOCALIZED
FLASH FLOODING IS POSSIBLE.

THE UNSETTLED WEATHER PATTERN WILL PERSIST THROUGH AT LEAST
