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.

.PREV DISCUSSION... /ISSUED 416 PM CDT MON APR 25 2011/

DISCUSSION...
..SIGNIFICANT SEVERE WEATHER OUTBREAK / EXTENDED FLOODING EVENT
ABOUT TO UNFOLD ACROSS THE MIDSOUTH...

GOES IR IMAGERY SHOWED A NEGATIVELY TILTED UPPER LEVEL TROF
DIGGING INTO THE SOUTHERN PLAINS AT MIDAFTERNOON. NUMEROUS
CLUSTERS OF SEVERE STORMS HAVE FORMED AHEAD OF THIS FEATURE...
INTO TWO LINEAR CLUSTERS. EXPECT THE TWO LINEAR CLUSTERS TO
CONSOLIDATE INTO A SOLID QLCS BY THE TIME IT ENTERS EASTERN AR
EARLY THIS EVENING. HAVE DECIDED TO INCLUDE LAWRENCE AND RANDOLPH
INTO TORNADO WATCH 205... BASED ON PROXIMITY TO THE LEADING
CLUSTER OF STORMS.

SIMILAR TO TODAY...EXPECT POST SQUALL LINE COLD OUTFLOW POOL TO
PREVAIL OVER MUCH OF THE MIDSOUTH TUESDAY MORNING. THIS AIRMASS
SHOULD QUICKLY MODIFY... WITH A WARM FRONT LIKELY LIFTING INTO THE
TO THE I40 CORRIDOR BY NOON... AND THROUGH MOST OF THE MIDSOUTH
DURING TUESDAY AFTERNOON. NAM SUGGESTS SCATTERED TO NUMEROUS
STORMS ALONG THE FRONT... REPRESENTING AN AFTERNOON SEVERE THREAT.
NAM SOUNDINGS SHOW MODERATE HELICITY...BUT EXPECT ENHANCED
HELICITY NEAR THE WARM FRONT.

ENVIRONMENTAL HELICITY IMPROVES MARKEDLY BY TUESDAY EVENING AND
OVERNIGHT WEDNESDAY MORNING. 18Z NAM IS A LITTLE FURTHER NORTH
WITH A SURFACE TRIPLE POINT... TAKING IT THROUGH NORTHEAST AR.
THIS SOLUTION WOULD REPRESENT AN ENHANCED TORNADO THREAT FOR
EASTERN ARKANSAS AND EVEN THE MEMPHIS METRO WEDNESDAY MORNING.
ECMWF CONCURS... BUT IT SHOULD BE NOTED THAT THE 12Z GFS IS
CONSIDERABLY FASTER THAN EITHER MODEL. GIVEN THE NEAR CONCURRENT
NAM/ECMWF SOLUTIONS...HAVE STUCK WITH A MORE WESTERLY SOLUTION TO THE
MODERATE RISK WEDNESDAY MORNING...INCLUDING THE MEMPHIS METRO.

EXPECT A STRONGLY FORCED SQUALL LINE TO FORM WEDNESDAY AFTERNOON...
LIFTING EAST AHEAD OF A SHARP MIDLEVEL TROF. WIDESPREAD DAMAGING
WINDS... QLCS TORNADOES WILL BE POSSIBLE.

OVERALL... FEW CHANGES FROM EARLIER FORECASTS. FLASH FLOOD THREAT
REMAINS SIGNIFICANT AND POTENTIALLY LIFE THREATENING...PARTICULARLY
OVER AREAS SUCH AS FAR NORTHEAST AR THAT HAVE ALREADY RECEIVED UP
TO 8 INCHES OF RAIN. SOME OF THE HEAVIEST RAIN ACROSS THE MIDSOUTH
WILL LIKELY FALL TONIGHT AND AGAIN TUESDAY NIGHT.

QUIETER WEATHER FOR THE LATTER HALF OF THE WEEK. EXPECT A COLD
FRONTAL PASSAGE ON OR ABOUT SUNDAY BASED ON GFS/ECMWF SOLUTIONS.
RIVER FLOODING WILL CONTINUE.
