bkWhat 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 Aug 5, 3:27 AM CDT, 29 minutes earlier.
Area forecast discussion, Aug 5, 3:27 AM CDT, 29 minutes before
AREA FORECAST DISCUSSION NATIONAL WEATHER SERVICE WICHITA KS 327 AM CDT MON AUG 5 2013 .SHORT TERM...(TODAY THROUGH WEDNESDAY) ISSUED AT 321 AM CDT MON AUG 5 2013 THE COMBINATION OF STRATUS BUILD DOWN EFFECTS AND VERY MOIST BOUNDARY LAYER WILL GIVE WAY TO AREAS OF DENSE FOG THIS MORNING...MAINLY FOR LOCATIONS WEST OF I-135. OTHERWISE...EXTREMELY HEAVY RAINFALL FROM TRAINING THUNDERSTORMS WAS ON-GOING OVER SOUTHEAST KANSAS EARLY THIS MORNING...DUE TO STRONG MOISTURE TRANSPORT OF HIGH PRECIPITABLE WATER AIRMASS BEING FOCUSED UPSTREAM FROM INITIATION POINT. THIS IS A CLASSIC BACK-BUILDING SIGNAL WHICH TYPICALLY RESULTS IN VERY SIGNIFICANT FLASH FLOODING...WITH PORTIONS OF SOUTHEAST KANSAS AT HIGH RISK THIS MORNING. THIS CONVECTION SHOULD GRADUALLY TAPER OFF DURING THE MORNING HOURS. MEANWHILE THUNDERSTORMS ARE EXPECTED TO REDEVELOP THIS AFTERNOON ALONG ANY RESIDUAL SURFACE BOUNDARY WHERE CONVERGENCE IS MAXIMIZED AND WITH-IN MOIST UPSLOPE REGIME OVER NORTHWEST KANSAS. OMINOUS LOOKING SIGNAL FOR HEAVY RAIN AGAIN TONIGHT AS THUNDERSTORMS COULD BECOME MORE WIDESPREAD OVER CENTRAL KANSAS AND SPREAD SLOWLY EASTWARD OVERNIGHT...AS LOW-LEVEL JET INCREASES IN RESPONSE TO STRENGTHENING UPPER JET ACROSS THE NORTHERN PLAINS. THE VERY MOIST AIRMASS WILL SUPPORT HIGH RAINFALL RATES AND POSSIBLE RE-NEWED FLOODING...AND SOME SIGNIFICANT FLOODING COULD OCCUR DUE SATURATED SOILS THEREFORE WE WILL EXPAND THE FLOOD WATCH IN TIME AND SPACE. ALSO IF THERE IS ENOUGH CLEARING OF SKIES TODAY THE AFTERNOON HEAT INDICES COULD SOAR INTO ADVISORY LEVELS. THE UNSETTLED WEATHER PATTERN WILL CONTINUE FOR TUESDAY BUT MORE SO FOR WEDNESDAY NIGHT AS MODELS SHOWS YET ANOTHER OMINOUS HEAVY RAIN/FLOODING SIGNAL...WITH STRONG ISENTROPIC LIFT OF RICH MOISTURE OVER-RUNNING THE LOW LEVEL FRONTAL BOUNDARY. THE FLOOD WATCH COULD BE EXTENDED EVEN FURTHER IN TIME BY LATER SHIFTS. .LONG TERM...(THURSDAY THROUGH SUNDAY) ISSUED AT 321 AM CDT MON AUG 5 2013 UNFORTUNATELY THE SYNOPTIC LOOKS TO KEEP THE WEATHER PATTERN UNSETTLED WITH ADDITIONAL CHANCES OF THUNDERSTORMS GOING FOR KANSAS...ESPECIALLY FOR THURSDAY AND THE UPCOMING WEEKEND. THIS WOULD ONLY PROLONG THE EXTREMELY WET PATTERN AND CAUSE MORE FLOODING FOR SOME OF THE REGION. JAKUB && .AVIATION...(FOR THE 06Z TAFS THROUGH 06Z MONDAY NIGHT) ISSUED AT 1136 PM CDT SUN AUG 4 2013 AREAS OF IFR AND MVFR CIGS AND VSBYS WILL PLAGUE THE CENTRAL KANSAS TERMINALS THROUGH MONDAY MORNING. MEANWHILE SCATTERED TO NUMEROUS CONVECTION WITH HEAVY RAINFALL WILL AFFECT SOUTHEAST KANSAS INTO EARLY MONDAY MORNING.
