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 Mobile, AL wrote its last area forecast discussion before this river flood warning went out at Jul 5, 5:28 PM CDT, 3 hours 28 minutes earlier.

Area forecast discussion, Jul 5, 5:28 PM CDT, 3 hours 28 minutes before

AREA FORECAST DISCUSSION...CORRECTION
NATIONAL WEATHER SERVICE MOBILE AL
528 PM CDT FRI JUL 5 2013

.SHORT TERM (TONIGHT THROUGH SUNDAY NIGHT)...HEAVY RAIN THREAT WILL
CONTINUE TONIGHT THROUGH AT LEAST SATURDAY AS DEEP LAYER MOISTURE
(PRECIPITABLE WATERS WELL OVER 2 INCHES) REMAINS IN PLACE OVER THE
CENTRAL GULF COAST...ALONG WITH THE AREA BEING ON THE FAVORED EAST
SIDE OF A LONG WAVE UPPER TROF OVER THE MISSISSIPPI VALLEY TO
PROVIDE DEEP LAYER LIFT. AT THE SURFACE...A WEAKLY DEFINED PRESSURE
TROF WAS DRAPED NORTH TO SOUTH OVER THE LOWER MISSISSIPPI DELTA AND
ALSO PROVIDES A SOURCE REGION FOR LIFT. /10

RADAR STORM TOTAL PRECIPITATION ESTIMATES SHOW AN AREA OVER INTERIOR
SOUTHEAST MISSISSIPPI FROM NORTHWEST GREENE COUNTY ACROSS THE
SOUTHERN HALF OF WAYNE COUNTY RECEIVING BETWEEN 8...UP TO AROUND 13
INCHES OF RAIN. SINCE ANTECEDENT SOIL MOISTURE IS ELEVATED
FORECASTERS ANTICIPATE FLASH FLOOD GUIDANCE TO BE PROGRESSIVELY
LOWER. BECAUSE OF THIS AND ADDITIONAL HEAVY RAIN EXPECTED TO SPREAD
NORTHWARD...ADDITIONAL HEAVY RAINS WILL LEAD TO RUNOFF AND INCREASE
THE LIKELIHOOD OF FLOODING. ANOTHER AREA OF PRIME CONCERN IS THE
NORTHWEST FLORIDA PANHANDLE WHERE DOPPLER WEATHER RADAR HIGH
RESOLUTION DUAL POL STORM TOTAL RAINFALL PRODUCTS SINCE TUESDAY SHOW
POCKETS OF 6 TO 12 INCH RAINS SOUTH OF I-10.

WE ARE STILL LOOKING AT GENERALLY 3 TO 5 INCHES OF ADDITIONAL
RAINFALL (WITH LOCALLY HIGHER AMOUNTS) ALONG AND WEST OF I-65
THROUGH SATURDAY NIGHT...AND 3 TO 6 INCHES EAST OF I-65 WITH THE
HIGHER TOTALS EXPECTED OVER THE FLORIDA PANHANDLE. THE DEEP MOISTURE
CONTENT AIR...INSTABILITY FROM 800 TO 1200 J/KG...AND LIFTED INDICES
AROUND -4...WILL TEND TO MAKE STORMS EFFICIENT RAINMAKERS. AS HAS
BEEN THE CASE OVER THE PAST COUPLE OF DAYS...ISOLATED AREAS COULD
SEE RAINFALL AROUND 2 TIMES AS HIGH. FLASH FLOOD WATCHES REMAIN IN
EFFECT AREA WIDE THRU 7 AM SUNDAY. AS FOR TEMPS...WENT BELOW MOS
GUIDANCE FOR MAX TEMPS BOTH SATURDAY AND SUNDAY...DUE TO WIDESPREAD
CLOUD AND RAIN COVERAGE. /10

.LONG TERM (MONDAY THROUGH FRIDAY)...AN ELONGATED EAST TO WEST MID
LEVEL RIDGE SETS UP OVER THE SOUTHERN STATES NEXT WEEK WITH A
POTENTIAL BREAK IN THE RIDGE SETTING UP THE LATTER HALF OF THE WEEK.
WITH DEEP LAYER MOISTURE REMAINING ELEVATED...CHANCES OF STORMS
CONTINUE DURING THE OUTLOOK. BOTH TEMPS AND POPS RETURN TO NEAR
CLIMO. 10/77

&&

.AVIATION...BASES AND VSBYS WILL VARY IN THE NEAR TERM AS SHIELD OF
SHRA/EMBEDDED TSRA MOVE NORTHWARD OFF THE GULF. PERIODS OF HEAVY RAIN IN
TSRA WITH BREAKS IN BETWEEN. /10

&&

.MARINE...MODERATE TO STRONG ONSHORE WINDS WILL DECREASE TODAY AS
A RIDGE OF HIGH PRESSURE BUILDS WESTWARD. THIS WILL MAINTAIN A SOUTH
TO SOUTHEAST WIND FLOW THROUGH MUCH OF THE FORECAST PERIOD. WINDS
AND SEAS WILL BE HIGHER NEAR SCATTERED TO NUMEROUS SHOWERS AND
THUNDERSTORMS. /77
