What forecasters said that day

The local office's own words before this severe thunderstorm warning went out, as it sent them, from the Iowa Environmental Mesonet's archive of National Weather Service text.

NWS Birmingham, AL wrote its last area forecast discussion before this severe thunderstorm warning went out at Jun 9, 6:57 PM CDT, 1 hour 8 minutes earlier.

Area forecast discussion, Jun 9, 6:57 PM CDT, 1 hour 8 minutes before

AREA FORECAST DISCUSSION...UPDATED
NATIONAL WEATHER SERVICE BIRMINGHAM AL
657 PM CDT MON JUN 9 2014

.UPDATE...
FOR 00Z AVIATION.

&&

.DISCUSSION...

AND THE BEAT GOES ON. WEST TO NORTHWEST UPPER LEVEL FLOW WILL
CONTINUE TO KEEP A FREQUENTLY STORMY WEATHER PATTERN FOR CENTRAL
ALABAMA THROUGH AT LEAST ANOTHER DAY OR TWO. YET ANOTHER QUASI-
LINEAR MCS WAS TRYING TO GET ORGANIZED NEAR THE MISSISSIPPI RIVER
LATE THIS AFTERNOON. IF IT HOLDS TOGETHER AND REMAINS IN ROUGHLY
THE SAME CONFIGURATION...IT WOULD REACH OUR WESTERN COUNTIES
AROUND 9 OR 10 PM. THAT LEAVES A BIT OF TIME FOR THE SYSTEM TO
CONTINUE TO STRENGTHEN AND ORGANIZE. WE COULD VERY WELL HAVE
ANOTHER ROUND OF STORMY WEATHER ON TUESDAY...AS A LARGER SCALE
UPPER LEVEL TROUGH FINALLY SWINGS THROUGH THE SOUTHEAST STATES.
WILL INCLUDE SEVERAL PERIODS OF AT LEAST LIKELY POPS...PROBABLY
UNTIL THE UPPER LEVEL TROUGH AXIS FINALLY GETS TO OUR EAST
WEDNESDAY NIGHT OR THURSDAY. WILL HAVE TO WATCH PRECIP AMOUNTS
WITH EACH SUCCESSIVE ROUND OF STORMS...AS FLASH FLOOD GUIDANCE
VALUES ARE BOUND TO DROP WITH EACH AREA OF RAIN THAT COMES
THROUGH.

WE SHOULD FINALLY GET BACK INTO A MORE TYPICAL OR CLIMATOLOGICAL
PATTERN BY THE END OF THE WEEK AND INTO THE WEEKEND...AS THE UPPER
FLOW WEAKENS FOR OUR AREA AND A RIDGE TRIES TO BECOME ESTABLISHED.

/61/

&&

.AVIATION...
00Z TAF DISCUSSION.

MAIN STORY FOR THE SHORT TERM IS THE LINE OF THUNDERSTORMS
CURRENTLY IN FAR EASTERN MISSISSIPPI FROM NORTH TO SOUTH. THIS
LINE CONTAINS SOME STRONG TO SEVERE TSRA. GO EVEN GUSTIER WINDS
THEN I CURRENTLY HAVE TEMPOED IN ARE POSSIBLE GENERALLY FOR
TCL/BHM/EET WITH LESSER CHANCES AT REMAINING TERMINALS. SO MAIN
ISSUE IS TRYING TO TIME THE LINE. HOWEVER...THERE ARE SOME CELLS
THAT ARE AHEAD OF THIS LINE AS WELL. ALSO...ANOTHER ROUND IS
POSSIBLE FOR TOMORROW AFTERNOON FOR PLANNING PURPOSES...A VERY WET
STORMY PATTERN THIS WEEK IS EXPECTED.
