The local office's own words before this flash flood warning went out, as it sent them, from the Iowa Environmental Mesonet's archive of National Weather Service text.
NWS Lincoln, IL wrote its last area forecast discussion before this flash flood warning went out at May 31, 6:51 PM CDT, 2 hours 28 minutes earlier.
Area forecast discussion, May 31, 6:51 PM CDT, 2 hours 28 minutes before
AREA FORECAST DISCUSSION NATIONAL WEATHER SERVICE LINCOLN IL 651 PM CDT FRI MAY 31 2013 .DISCUSSION... ISSUED 245 PM CDT FRI MAY 31 2013 ANOTHER AREA OF SHOWERS AND THUNDERSTORMS WAS TRACKING ENE ACROSS CENTRAL THRU EAST CENTRAL AND SOUTHEAST ILLINOIS EARLY THIS AFTERNOON. THIS IS KEEPING TEMPERATURES AT BAY...AT LEAST EARLY THIS AFTERNOON...WITH READINGS MOSTLY IN THE LOW TO MID 70S...WITH A FEW LOW 80S OVER EXTREME SE IL WHERE THE THICKER CLOUD COVER AND RAIN HAS STAYED AWAY FROM FOR NOW. DUE TO THE CLOUD COVER AND RAIN OVER MOST OF THE AREA...INSTABILITY HAS BEEN HELD DOWN SOME WITH THE HIGHER CAPES ACRS FAR EAST AND SOUTHEAST ILLINOIS. SHORT TERM...TONIGHT THROUGH MONDAY ENHANCED FLASH FLOOD THREAT SETTING UP TONIGHT INTO SATURDAY MORNING FOR AREAS SOUTH OF A SPRINGFIELD TO CHAMPAIGN LINE. MODELS IN GENERAL AGREEMENT WITH THE SLOW MOVING UPPER SYSTEM OUT TO OUR NORTHWEST AND THE ATTENDANT COLD FRONT...THAT IS EXPECTED TO PUSH ACRS OUR AREA SATURDAY. BUT BEFORE THAT HAPPENS...SEVERAL OF THE CONVECTIVE ALLOWING MODELS HAVE BEEN ADVERTISING THE THREAT FOR THE DEVELOPMENT OF A LARGE AND SLOW MOVING MCS ACROSS PARTS OF SOUTH CENTRAL MO ENE INTO SOUTH CENTRAL AND SE IL LATER THIS EVENING AS THE COMBINATION OF HIGH 850 MB THETA-E AIR AND IMPRESSIVE MOISTURE TRANSPORT NORTHWARD INTO THE REGION POINTS TO THE POTENTIAL FOR EXCESSIVE RAINFALL AMOUNTS. THIS MORNINGS 850 MB CHART SHOWED DEW POINTS IN THE 15-18 DEGREE C RANGE TO THE SOUTH OF THE AREA AND AS THE LOW LEVEL JET INCREASES TONIGHT...THERE WILL BE PLENTY OF DEEP TROPICAL MOISTURE ADVECTING NORTHWARD INTO SOUTHERN ILLINOIS. NAM-WRF FORECAST SOUNDINGS SHOWING A WARM CLOUD DEPTH OF 12000 FEET OVER PARTS OF SOUTHERN IL LATER THIS EVENING WITH PRECIP WATER VALUES OF CLOSE TO 2 INCHES IN PARTS OF SOUTH CENTRAL MO AND SOUTHERN IL. IT APPEARS THE RIVERS IN EAST CENTRAL AND PARTS OF SOUTHEAST ILLINOIS HAVE A HIGHER PROBABILITY FOR SEEING SIGNIFICANT RISES IN RIVER LEVELS LATER TONIGHT AND THRU THE WEEKEND...WHEREAS THE NORTHERN BASINS APPEAR TO BE TOO FAR NORTH THIS TIME FOR THE SIGNIFICANT RAINFALL. HOWEVER...UNTIL WE SEE THIS SCENARIO START TO EVOLVE LATE THIS AFTERNOON AND EVENING...WE ARE PLANNING ON KEEPING THE CURRENT FLASH FLOOD WATCH GOING THRU SATURDAY (SEE THE HYDRO SECTION BELOW). THE COMBINATION OF DEEP LAYER SHEAR AND SOME INSTABILITY...ESPECIALLY ACRS THE SOUTH...SUGGESTS THE SEVERE THREAT WILL CONTINUE OVER THE AREA TONIGHT...WITH WIND AND HAIL THE PRIMARY THREATS. CONVECTION SHOULD BEGIN TO WIND DOWN SATURDAY MORNING AS THE MCS TRACKS FURTHER OFF TO OUR EAST AND SOUTH. THEN OUR ATTENTION TURNS TO THE COLD FRONT WHICH WILL FINALLY BE ON THE MOVE ACROSS OUR FORECAST AREA SATURDAY AFTERNOON. JUST WHAT AFFECT THE OVERNIGHT AND MORNING CONVECTION HAS ON ANY REDEVELOPMENT TOMORROW AFTERNOON IS A REAL CHALLENGE THIS FAR OUT AS EACH MODEL HAS A DIFFERENT SCENARIO. IT STILL APPEARS AREAS MAINLY EAST OF I-55 STAND THE BEST CHANCE FOR SEEING THE POTENTIAL FOR REDEVELOPMENT AND POSSIBLE SEVERE TOMORROW AFTERNOON. THE SHOWER THREAT SHOULD PROGRESS EAST TOMORROW EVENING ALONG WITH THE COLD FRONT SO WILL START TO SHAVE THE POPS BACK LATER SATURDAY NIGHT...WITH COOLER AND DRIER WEATHER SETTLING IN FOR THE REST OF THE WEEKEND AND EARLY NEXT WEEK. LONG TERM...TUESDAY THROUGH FRIDAY AS THE SLOW MOVING UPPER LEVEL LOW SHIFTS AWAY FROM OUR AREA EARLY NEXT WEEK...WE SHOULD SEE WEAK UPPER LEVEL RIDGING BUILD IN FOR A DAY OR TWO BEFORE ANOTHER SLOW MOVING UPPER WAY TRACKS ACRS THE NORTHERN PLAINS AND APPROACHES OUR AREA LATE TUESDAY NIGHT INTO WEDNESDAY. THIS SHOULD PROVIDE US WITH THE NEXT CHANCE FOR SHOWERS AND THUNDERSTORMS STARTING IN THE FAR WEST LATE TUESDAY NIGHT AND A BETTER CHANCE FOR SHOWERS WEDNESDAY INTO THURSDAY BEFORE THE UPPER SYSTEM FINALLY PUSHES OFF TO OUR EAST LATE THU INTO FRIDAY. TEMPERATURES WILL START OUT A BIT BELOW NORMAL EARLY NEXT WEEK BUT SHOULD RETURN TO NORMAL BY THURSDAY AND FRIDAY. SMITH && .AVIATION... ISSUED 651 PM CDT FRI MAY 31 2013 A BREAK IN RAINFALL IS EXPECTED EARLY THIS EVENING ACROSS THE CENTRAL ILLINOIS TERMINALS. IN FACT...KPIA AND KBMI SHOULD STAY DRY MORE OFTEN THAN NOT TONIGHT. FURTHER SOUTH...AN AREA OF SHOWERS AND SOME THUNDERSTORMS SHOULD SPREAD NORTHEAST ACROSS KSPI/KDEC/KCMI LATER THIS EVENING AND INTO THE OVERNIGHT HOURS. EXPECT LOW END VFR/HIGH END MVFR CONDITIONS TO PREVAIL OUTSIDE OF ANY HEAVY THUNDERSTORMS. SHOWER/STORM CHANCES RETURN SATURDAY AS DAYTIME HEATING INCREASES AND A COLD FRONT APPROACHES FROM THE WEST. THERE IS ENOUGH UNCERTAINTY IN THE DETAILS TO ONLY CARRY A VCSH MENTION AT THIS TIME WITH THIS PRECIPITATION DEVELOPMENT. SOUTHERLY WINDS WILL PREVAIL THROUGH THE PERIOD AHEAD OF THE A SLOWLY APPROACHING COLD FRONT. HOWEVER...VARIABLE WINDS CAN BE EXPECTED IN THE VICINITY OF THUNDERSTORMS.
