The radar

The La Crosse radar (KARX), 106 km from the middle of the area, began a volume at 20:50 UTC, the scan nearest the moment this went out.

The archived warnings, watches and discussions in force at that minute are drawn over the scan, this one among them.

Did it verify

Not verified. The Iowa Environmental Mesonet's Cow found no qualifying storm report inside this flash flood warning while it was in force. That is not proof nothing happened: reports are thin where few people live.

Cow counts a report within 15 km of the polygon while the warning was in force: a tornado for a tornado warning; hail of 1 inch or more, a gust of 58 mph or more or wind damage for a severe thunderstorm warning; a flash flood report for a flash flood warning.

The nearest sounding before it

Davenport, (KDVN), launched 12:00Z, 8.8 hours before the alert went out and 146 km from the middle of its area. This is the routine balloon launch nearest before it, the air the forecaster had in hand, not a measurement taken for the alert.

Skew-T log-p

Temperature in red, dew point in green, the mixed-layer parcel dashed.

NWS La Crosse, WI wrote its last area forecast discussion before this flash flood warning went out at Jun 30, 2:30 PM CDT, 1 hour 20 minutes earlier.

Area forecast discussion, Jun 30, 2:30 PM CDT, 1 hour 20 minutes before

AREA FORECAST DISCUSSION
NATIONAL WEATHER SERVICE LA CROSSE WI
230 PM CDT MON JUN 30 2014

.SHORT TERM...(TONIGHT AND TUESDAY)
ISSUED AT 230 PM CDT MON JUN 30 2014

IN MIDST OF SEVERE WEATHER THREAT AS COMPLEX MOVES BY JUST TO OUR
SOUTH. MID LEVEL TROUGH PROVIDING WIDESPREAD FORCING WITH PLENTY OF
SHEAR TO WORK WITH...BUT MIXED LAYER CAPE VALUES HAVE BEEN MUCH
HIGHER LOCKED ACROSS MAINLY SOUTHERN IOWA BUT HAVE BEEN CLIMBING
AHEAD OF COMPLEX INTO WISCONSIN. DCAPE IS ALSO HIGH SO COULD SEE
HEALTHY DOWNDRAFTS AS STRONGER CORES MOVE THROUGH. SEEING A LITTLE
INCREASE IN GROWTH OF STORMS AS THEY APPROACH MISSISSIPPI RIVER SO
WARNING CHANCES HIGHEST NEXT FEW HOURS.

EVEN ON NORTH SIDE OF COMPLEX...EFFICIENT RAINFALL ACROSS AREA THAT
WAS HIT LAST NIGHT COULD LEAD TO ADDITIONAL FLASH FLOOD PROBLEMS SO
HAVE CONTINUED THE WATCH INTO THE EVENING AS WELL. RUNOFF WILL BE
QUICK AND WEVE SEEN RAPID RISES ON RIVERS AND CREEKS WITH ANY STORMS.

AS MID LEVEL TROUGH CONTINUES TO PUSH SOUTHEAST...WILL SEE LOWER DEW
POINTS START TO WORK IN BUT UNTIL THEN SOME CONCERN ABOUT POSSIBLE
REDEVELOPMENT. CONFIDENCE IN THAT LOW AT THIS POINT IN WAKE OF MUCH
STRONGER COMPLEX TO THE SOUTH BUT WILL GRADUALLY WORK RAIN THREAT
LOWER FROM NORTHWEST TO SOUTHEAST TONIGHT.

AS TROUGH DIVES INTO WESTERN GREAT LAKES TOMORROW...CLOUDS WILL
ADVECT IN AND STEEP LAPSE RATES WILL MAKE FOR RAIN/SHOWERS AND
ATYPICAL SUMMER WEATHER DAY FOR THE REGION.

.LONG TERM...(TUESDAY NIGHT THROUGH MONDAY)
ISSUED AT 230 PM CDT MON JUN 30 2014

WITH FOCUS ON SHORT TERM AND ON-GOING WEATHER...MINIMAL TIME FOCUSED
ON LATER PERIODS.

REMAINING IMPACT OF TROUGH MAY LINGER A BIT WEDNESDAY WITH BELOW
NORMAL TEMPERATURES AND SMALL RAIN THREAT BUT AMPLIFICATION IN FLOW
WILL BRING QUIETER NORTHWEST REGIME WITH MODERATING TEMPERATURES.
RIDGE TO THE WEST DOES NOT BUILD IN STRONG ENOUGH IT APPEARS TO KEEP
SHORT WAVE ENERGY FROM BRINGING ANOTHER SHOWER RISK TOWARDS END OF
HOLIDAY AND INTO THE WEEKEND BUT THOSE RISKS APPEAR SMALL.

&&

.AVIATION...(FOR THE 18Z TAFS THROUGH 18Z TUESDAY AFTERNOON)
ISSUED AT 1217 PM CDT MON JUN 30 2014

A TROUGH OF LOW PRESSURE WILL SWING THROUGH THE AREA THIS
AFTERNOON FOR ANOTHER ROUND OF SHRA/TS. VFR CONDITIONS EXPECTED
THROUGH THE MAJORITY OF THIS SHRA/TS ACTIVITY AT KRST/KLSE...BUT
PROBABLY WILL SEE BRIEF BOUTS OF MVFR CONDITIONS. LOOK FOR ANY
SEVERE ACTIVITY TO REMAIN MAINLY SOUTH OF I-90 THROUGH THIS
AFTERNOON. SKIES EXPECTED TO SCATTER OUT THIS EVENING BRIEFLY
BEHIND THE TROUGH AND DEPARTING CONVECTION. MODELS ARE THEN INDICATING
A STRATOCUMULUS FIELD WITH BASES SLIPPING INTO HIGHER-END MVFR
CATEGORY AFTER 10Z AS COOLER CYCLONIC FLOW ALOFT OVERSPREADS THE
REGION. LOOKS LIKE SOME SHOWERS WILL START POPPING UP BY LATE
TUESDAY MORNING AS WELL ASSOCIATED WITH COLDER AIR ALOFT/STEEP LOW
LEVEL LAPSE RATES. VSBY EXPECTED TO REMAIN VFR BUT CLOUD CIGS
STRADDLING MVFR/VFR CONDITIONS.

&&

.HYDROLOGY...
ISSUED AT 230 PM CDT MON JUN 30 2014

AMOUNT OF DEEP LAYER MOISTURE AND ON-GOING MCS MORE THAN ENOUGH
JUSTIFICATION TO KEEP FLASH FLOOD WATCH IN TACT UNTIL SYSTEM CLEARS
EARLY THIS EVENING. ADDITIONAL RAINFALL OF 1 TO 3 INCHES CERTAINLY
POSSIBLE NEXT FEW HOURS AND GIVEN HOW SATURATED EVERYTHING
IS...RUNOFF WILL BE QUICK AND RESPONSIVE.
