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 Omaha, NE wrote its last area forecast discussion before this severe thunderstorm warning went out at May 19, 3:12 PM CDT, 5 hours 33 minutes earlier.

Area forecast discussion, May 19, 3:12 PM CDT, 5 hours 33 minutes before

AREA FORECAST DISCUSSION
NATIONAL WEATHER SERVICE OMAHA/VALLEY NE
312 PM CDT SAT MAY 19 2012

.DISCUSSION...

A COLD FRONT WAS LOCATED OVER PARTS OF NORTHEAST INTO SOUTH
CENTRAL NEBRASKA AT 19Z. THE FRONT WILL MOVE SOUTHEAST ACROSS THE
AREA TONIGHT WITH SCATTERED SHOWERS AND THUNDERSTORMS THROUGH
MIDNIGHT. THE FRONT AND ASSOCIATED THUNDERSTORMS WILL BE EAST OF
THE AREA ON SUNDAY WITH COOLER TEMPERATURES EXPECTED AS HIGH
PRESSURE BUILDS INTO THE REGION THROUGH MONDAY. INCREASING
SOUTHERLY FLOW THEN RETURNS MONDAY NIGHT THROUGH TUESDAY IN
ADVANCE OF ANOTHER COLD FRONT MOVING INTO THE WESTERN HIGH PLAINS.

THIS SECOND COLD FRONT IS EXPECTED TO MOVE INTO THE AREA ON
WEDNESDAY THEN STALL OUT OVER SOUTHEAST NEBRASKA WEDNESDAY NIGHT.
EXTENDED MODELS THEN DIFFER ON THE SOLUTION FOR THE REMAINDER OF
THE WEEK AS THE GFS KEEPS THE STALLED BOUNDARY NEAR THE KANSAS
BORDER WITH THE CHANCE OF MORE THUNDERSTORMS FOR THE AREA. THE
ECMWF MEANWHILE LIFTS IT NORTH AS A WARM FRONT BY FRIDAY WITH
SIGNIFICANTLY WARMER TEMPERATURES INDICATED FOR THE WEEKEND.
AS A RESULT LOW CONFIDENCE AT THIS TIME FOR THIS PORTION OF THE
EXTENDED PERIOD.

&&

.AVIATION...
18Z TAFS FOR KOMA...KLNK...AND KOFK.

MAIN AVIATION CONCERN WILL BE STRONG THUNDERSTORMS THAT DEVELOP
AFTER 22Z AND PERSIST INTO THE EVENING. LARGE HAIL AND SEVERE
DOWNBURST WINDS WILL BE POSSIBLE WITH A FEW OF THESE STORMS.
STORMS SHOULD WEAKEN AFTER 03Z...AND MAY DIMINISH TO SHOWERS OR
WEAK CONVECTION BY 06Z THEN END SHORTLY AFTER 06Z. A WELL-DEFINED
COLD FRONT EXTENDED FROM AROUND KOFK TO KGRI AT 17Z AND THIS FRONT
WILL SLOWLY MOVE THROUGH EASTERN NEBRASKA TODAY AND
TONIGHT...SWITCHING THE WINDS FROM SOUTH TO NORTHWEST. AHEAD OF
THE FRONT DURING THE AFTERNOON HOURS...KOMA AND KLNK WILL HAVE
SOUTH WINDS GUSTING OVER 20 KNOTS...BUT THESE SHOULD WEAKEN BY
SUNSET AS THE FRONT APPROACHES.

AFTER THE STORMS AND SHOWERS MOVE OUT LATE TONIGHT...VFR
CONDITIONS ARE EXPECTED FROM THE EARLY MORNING HOURS SUNDAY
THROUGH THE END OF THE TAF PERIOD.
