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 Wichita, KS wrote its last area forecast discussion before this river flood warning went out at May 30, 6:32 PM CDT, 2 hours 29 minutes earlier.

Area forecast discussion, May 30, 6:32 PM CDT, 2 hours 29 minutes before

AREA FORECAST DISCUSSION
NATIONAL WEATHER SERVICE WICHITA KS
632 PM CDT THU MAY 30 2013

.SYNOPSIS...
ISSUED AT 234 PM CDT THU MAY 30 2013

NEGATIVE TILT TROUGH IS ROTATING ACROSS EASTERN KS INTO MO WITH A
STRONG UPPER JET DIVING SOUTHEAST OVER THE GREAT BASIN INTO THE
ROCKIES. IT APPEARS THE ACTIVITY OVER WESTERN KS IS OCCURRING NEAR
THE LEFT EXIT REGION OF THE JET IN CONJUNCTION WITH COOLER MID LEVEL
TEMPS. OVERNIGHT CONVECTION HAS REINFORCED A SURFACE BOUNDARY THAT
HAS SPARKED STORMS OVER OK AND SOUTHEAST KS WHICH ARE SLOWLY PUSHING
EAST. MEANWHILE...SUBSIDENCE BEHIND THE MCS AND PV ANOMALY HAS
CLEARED OUT MOST OF CENTRAL AND SOUTH CENTRAL KS.

&&

.SHORT TERM...(THIS EVENING THROUGH SAT)
ISSUED AT 234 PM CDT THU MAY 30 2013

VERY COMPLEX SCENARIO UNFOLDING OVER THE NEXT FEW HOURS. IRONICALLY
WE HAVE HIGHER CONFIDENCE ON WHAT WILL OCCUR OVERNIGHT THAN WE DO
OVER THE NEXT FEW HOURS. WHILE MOST OF THE MESOSCALE MODELS DO NOT
GENERATE STORMS OVER SOUTH CENTRAL KS THIS AFTERNOON...AM A BIT
CONCERNED THAT STORMS WILL DEVELOP ONCE THE COOLER MID AIR AND JET
MAX MOVES INTO THE AREA. WITH A GOOD ENVIRONMENT STILL IN
PLACE...ANY STORM THAT DEVELOPS WILL HAVE A GOOD CHANCE OF BECOMING
SEVERE. STILL FEEL THE BETTER TOR THREAT WILL BE GENERALLY ALONG THE
KS-OK BORDER CLOSE TO OR SHORTLY AFTER 00Z AS THE BETTER MOISTURE
STARTS TO WORK BACK NW.

CONFIDENCE IS HIGH THAT ELEVATED CONVECTION WILL DEVELOP AFTER 00Z
AS MOISTURE TRANSPORT ALONG THE 310K SURFACE RAMPS UP. SHOULD
INITIALLY DEVELOP OVER THE FLINT HILLS OR JUST TO THE WEST AND
EXPAND OVER EASTERN KS. WITH GREAT SHEAR AND INSTABILITY IN
PLACE...SEVERE STORMS WILL BE LIKELY. HOWEVER WHAT MAY END UP BEING
THE BIGGER STORY IS THE FLOODING OVER SE KS WHICH IS ALREADY GETTING
FLOODING AND EXPECTING MUCH MORE RAIN.

THE BROAD UPPER TROUGH WILL REMAIN OVER THE PLAINS FOR FRI WITH THE
RICH LOW LEVEL MOISTURE STAYING PLANTED EAST OF THE KS TURNPIKE.
ANOTHER ROUND OF CONVECTION WILL DEVELOP ALONG THE FRONT FRI
AFTERNOON SOUTHEAST OF THE KS TURNPIKE AND WILL CONTINUE INTO FRI
NIGHT. SEVERE STORMS WILL BE LIKELY WITH ANY STORM THAT DEVELOPS BUT
AGAIN...FLOODING WILL ALSO BE A VERY BIG THREAT WITH SOME RIVER
FLOODING ALSO POSSIBLE SINCE IT WILL BE THE THIRD DAY IN A ROW OF
HEAVY RAIN OVER SE KS. THE SURFACE FRONT WILL FINALLY START TO PUSH
SOUTH ON SAT MORNING AND SHOULD FINALLY BE SOUTH OF THE FORECAST
AREA BY SAT AFTERNOON.

.LONG TERM...(SUN THROUGH THURSDAY)
ISSUED AT 234 PM CDT THU MAY 30 2013

MEDIUM RANGE MODELS REMAIN CONSISTENT IN SURFACE HIGH PRESSURE
SPREADING OVER THE AREA FOR SUN INTO SUN NIGHT KEEPING PRECIP OUT OF
THE FORECAST. MOISTURE WILL START TO RETURN NORTH ON MON AS LEE
TROUGHING STRENGTHENS AHEAD A WAVE TRACKING OVER THE NORTHERN
ROCKIES. THIS UPPER WAVE IS EXPECTED TO TRACK OVER THE NORTHERN
PLAINS INTO TUE. WITH MOISTURE RENAMING OVER THE AREA AND A BOUNDARY
LINGERING AROUND...PRECIP CHANCES WILL REMAIN IN THE FORECAST BUT
WILL LIKELY BE REFINED WITH LATER FORECAST SHIFTS.

LAWSON

&&

.AVIATION...(FOR THE 00Z TAFS THROUGH 00Z FRIDAY EVENING)
ISSUED AT 621 PM CDT THU MAY 30 2013

TWO MAIN CONCERNS: THUNDERSTORM POTENTIAL AND MVFR/IFR CEILING
POTENTIAL.

SOUTHERLY LOW-LEVEL JET PROGGED TO INCREASE NORTHWARD THRU EASTERN
KS FROM OK THIS EVENING WHICH SHOULD DRAW INCREASING ELEVATED
INSTABILITY NORTHWARD. THIS ALONG WITH SOME ISENTROPIC ASCENT
SHOULD SET OFF SCATTERED THUNDERSTORMS MID-LATE EVENING WITH
HIGHEST PROBABILITIES ALONG/EAST OF I-135. WILL USE VCTS AT
SLN/HUT/ICT/CNU...THEN EARLY FRIDAY MORNING GO WITH A PREVAILING
TS GROUP FOR A FEW HOURS AT CNU. THAT SEEMS TO BE BEST AREA FOR
MCS ACTIVITY. DECREASING DEWPOINT DEPRESSIONS COULD LEAD TO AREAS
OF MVFR/IFR CIGS LATE TONIGHT INTO EARLY FRIDAY MORNING.
THUNDERSTORMS COULD REDEVELOP EAST OF KS TURNPIKE FRI PM/EVE
HOWEVER CONFIDENCE NOT HIGH ENOUGH TO INSERT TS MENTION THIS FAR OUT.
