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 Topeka, KS wrote its last area forecast discussion before this river flood warning went out at Aug 3, 6:35 AM CDT, 2 hours 33 minutes earlier.

Area forecast discussion, Aug 3, 6:35 AM CDT, 2 hours 33 minutes before
AREA FORECAST DISCUSSION
NATIONAL WEATHER SERVICE TOPEKA KS
635 AM CDT Sat Aug 3 2013

.SHORT TERM...(Today AND Tonight)
ISSUED 337 AM CDT SAT AUG 3 2013

Showers and thunderstorms were confined to south of Interstate 35
and also along an outflow boundary over Northeast Kansas at 08Z.
Profilers show low level jet out of the southwest 25 to 35 kts with
a convergence area over near and south of Interstate 70.
Precipitable water values continue to hover around 2 inches across
East Central Kansas as well.

Frontal boundary in far southern Kansas may drift slowly north
today. Also residual boundaries from this mornings convection, a
very humid airmass and ML CAPE increasing to around 1000 to 2000
J/kg this afternoon. Will keep a chance of thunderstorms today
across much of the CWA. Temperatures today will mainly be in the mid
to upper 80s.

Tonight showers and thunderstorms will continue to be possible
through the evening hours with increasing chances after midnight.
Evening convection may fire along any boundaries and may be slow
moving and produce heavy rainfall. Thunderstorms moving out of
western Kansas later tonight may move into North Central and East
Central Kansas after midnight. Moisture advection will increase
across Central Kansas overnight as models show increasing moisture
transport vectors. 850 mb to 300 mb thickness and Corfidi vectors
from the GFS would suggest that storms moving into central and North
Central Kansas will move south southeast after 09Z. Will keep likely
to categorical wording across North Central and East Central Kansas
after midnight. With precipitable water values remaining high and
moisture transport will see chances for locally heavy rainfall and
and additional flooding.

.LONG TERM...(Sunday THROUGH Friday)
ISSUED AT 337 AM CDT SAT AUG 3 2013

MCS likely ongoing to start Sunday with low level jet feeding the
system through at least midday. Additional development possible
after MCS exits with southwest winds over any lingering outflows.
Better isentropic lift should be over the southeastern zones Sunday
night with 850 mb flow beginning to respond to upper low making
slow southward progress out of southern Canada. Monday may be one
of the drier periods of the midterm periods but surface front
should resharpen over the western Nebraska by late day with
another convective complex possibly coming southeast into the
Central Plains Monday night into Tuesday. Cold front associated
with the Canadian low should come through around late Tuesday
night and sink south to near Oklahoma by Thursday morning. Just
how far the front gets remains in question and at least small
precip chances will persist through the late week periods. Main
concern with the storms with continue to be excessive rainfall
with precipitable water values in the 2 inch range and many areas
of saturated soils from recent events. Too little confidence in
placement and amounts for any watch at this time however.
Temperatures should remain tempered by periodic precipitation and
the cold front's passage with Monday and Tuesday looking the
warmest at this point with near normal levels.

&&

.AVIATION...(FOR THE 12Z TAFS through 12Z Sunday morning) ISSUED AT
635 AM CDT SAT AUG 3 2013

A few hours of MVFR cigs are expected at the terminals through
16Z. Some developing showers near TOP and FOE and have mentioned
some VCSH. Outside of any convection VFR conditions will be found.
Winds will remain out of the northeast to east through the period
at speeds of less than 10 kts. Some TSRA is possible with the most
likely time being after 07Z Sun and added VCTS. TSRA is also
possible after 18Z but probability too low to include at this time.
