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 North Platte, NE wrote its last area forecast discussion before this severe thunderstorm warning went out at Jun 3, 5:09 PM CDT, 48 minutes earlier.

Area forecast discussion, Jun 3, 5:09 PM CDT, 48 minutes before

AREA FORECAST DISCUSSION
NATIONAL WEATHER SERVICE NORTH PLATTE NE
509 PM CDT TUE JUN 3 2014

.SYNOPSIS...
ISSUED AT 329 PM CDT TUE JUN 3 2014

A BROAD BELT OF STRONG WINDS ALOFT STRETCHING FROM SRN
CANADA TO THE CNTL/SRN PLAINS WILL CONTINUE IN PLACE THROUGH FRIDAY.
WINDS AT 500 MB WILL INCREASE TO 40 TO 50 KTS AT TIMES WHICH WILL
SUPPORT RELATIVELY HIGH VALUES OF BULK SHEAR AND THE DEVELOPMENT OF
STRONG OR SEVERE THUNDERSTORMS. MOISTURE WILL CONTINUE IN PLACE AT
TIMES FOR RAINFALL.

&&

.UPDATE...
ISSUED AT 509 PM CDT TUE JUN 3 2014

UPDATED FORECAST TO DROP BOYD AND KEYA PAHA COUNTIES FROM SEVERE
THUNDERSTORM WATCH.

&&

.SHORT TERM...(THIS EVENING THROUGH WEDNESDAY)
ISSUED AT 329 PM CDT TUE JUN 3 2014

VERY ACTIVE WEATHER AFTERNOON WILL CONTINUE INTO THE EVENING HOURS.
CAPE VALUES HAVE SOARED TO 4K TO 6K J/KG AND AS CAP CONTINUES TO
WEAKEN THE THUNDERSTORMS TO INCREASE. SPC HAS SLIGHT RISK TO
MODERATE RISK FOR LARGE HAIL/DAMAGING WINDS/TORNADOES ACROSS THE
CWA. PV ANOMALY MOVING ACROSS THE ROCKIES WILL AID IN FOCUSING
DEVELOPMENT...ALONG WITH OUTFLOW FROM EARLIER CONVECTION.

ACTIVITY WILL QUICKLY TRANSITION EAST INTO AN MCS WITH CLEARING
SKIES OVERNIGHT. THE CLEARING SKIES WILL ALLOW FOR TEMPS TO COOL
WITH FOG/LOW STRATUS DEVELOPING. THE FOG WILL QUICKLY LIFT WITH
MOSTLY SUNNY SKIES FOR THE AFTERNOON. COOLER AIR SETTLES ACROSS THE
AREA WITH HIGHS IN THE 70S TO LOWER 80S. THE NEXT DISTURBANCE
ARRIVES ACROSS THE PANHANDLE FOR THE AFTERNOON WITH A SLIGHT CHANCE
FOR THUNDERSTORMS.

.LONG TERM...(WEDNESDAY NIGHT THROUGH TUESDAY)
ISSUED AT 329 PM CDT TUE JUN 3 2014

WEDNESDAY NIGHT THROUGH FRIDAY...ANOTHER UPPER LEVEL DISTURBANCE
WILL MOVE THROUGH WEDNESDAY NIGHT WITH AN MCS OR TWO DEVELOPING ON
THE CNTL HIGH PLAINS/BLACK HILLS. THESE SYSTEMS SHOULD MOVE EAST
SOUTHEAST INTO EASTERLY UPSLOPE LOW LEVEL FLOW AROUND 30 KT. THE SPC
HAS OUTLOOKED AREAS GENERALLY ALONG AND WEST OF HIGHWAY 83 FOR SEVERE
STORM DEVELOPMENT.

IN THE WAKE OF THE STORMS WEDNESDAY NIGHT...HIGH PRESSURE BUILDS INTO
NCNTL NEB THURSDAY WITH SOUTHERLY RETURN FLOW DEVELOPING UP THE
HIGH PLAINS OF WYOMING AND WRN NEB. THE NAM SHOWS CONVECTION
DEVELOPING THURSDAY MORNING ACROSS WRN NEB MOVING INTO NCNTL NEB
DURING THE AFTN. IT IS UNCLEAR HOW ORGANIZED THIS CONVECTION WILL
BE GIVEN THE TIMING OF THE DISTURBANCE. BULK SHEAR AND INSTABILITY
ARE FAIRLY MODEST...25 TO 35 KT AND LIFTED INDICES OF AROUND -4 TO
-6 C.

ON FRIDAY...UPSLOPE FLOW STRENGTHENS BUT FOCUSES A BIT FARTHER SOUTH
ACROSS ERN COLO AND THE SRN NEB PANHANDLE DURING THE AFTN.
INSTABILITY/LIFTED INDICES AND BULK SHEAR INCREASE TO AROUND -8C AND
40 KTS WHICH SHOULD SUPPORT SUPERCELL DEVELOPMENT...INITIALLY ACROSS
THE HIGH PLAINS OF ERN COLO AND THE CHEYENNE DIVIDE WHICH WOULD MOVE
EAST SOUTHEAST INTO SWRN NEB LATE FRIDAY AFTN.

THE TEMPERATURE FORECAST FOLLOWS A TRADITIONAL MODEL BLEND FOR HIGHS
MOSTLY IN THE UPPER 70S TO NEAR 80 EXCEPT ACROSS THE NORTHWEST
FRIDAY WHERE UPPER 60S SHOULD PREVAIL.

FRIDAY NIGHT THROUGH TUESDAY...STRONG OR SEVERE STORMS EXIT THE FCST
AREA FRIDAY NIGHT TO BE FOLLOWED BY MORE STABLE BUT WET CONDITIONS.
A SHOT OF CANADIAN HIGH PRESSURE AND COLD AIR ALOFT SUGGEST THE
POTENTIAL FOR SCATTERED SHOWERS AND ISOLATED THUNDERSTORMS SATURDAY
AND SATURDAY NIGHT. A SECOND REINFORCING COLD FRONT AND CANADIAN
HIGH MOVES THROUGH MONDAY AND MONDAY NIGHT FOR A CHANCE SHOWERS AND
THUNDERSTORMS. ANOTHER STRONG UPPER LEVEL DISTURBANCE WILL DROP
THROUGH THE NRN HIGH PLAINS NEXT TUESDAY WHICH COULD PRODUCE
ADDITIONAL TSTMS.

&&

.AVIATION...(FOR THE 18Z TAFS THROUGH 18Z WEDNESDAY AFTERNOON)
ISSUED AT 113 PM CDT TUE JUN 3 2014

BUSY AFTERNOON WITH STRONG TO SEVERE THUNDERSTORMS. IMPACT ALREADY
AT KVTN AND EXPECTED THE STORMS TO IMPACT KVTN AND POINTS SOUTH AND
EAST. LESS CONFIDENCE FOR KLBF AS DEVELOPMENT EXPECTED NEAR THE
TERMINAL...AND COULD BE FURTHER EAST. THIS AFTERNOON INTO THE
EVENING WE WILL CONTINUE TO MONITOR CLOSELY AND WATCH FOR
AMENDMENTS AS IMPACT FOR THUNDERSTORM TIMING BECOMES MORE CERTAIN.
OVERNIGHT ACTIVITY PUSHES EAST...HOWEVER MODELS IN GOOD AGREEMENT
WITH LOW IFR CIGS/FOG DEVELOPING OVERNIGHT INTO THE EARLY MORNING
HOURS. VFR CONDITIONS DEVELOP BY MID MORNING ACROSS THE ENTIRE
AREA.
