$$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 Louisville, KY wrote its last area forecast discussion before this river flood warning went out at Feb 5, 8:42 AM EST, 3 hours 13 minutes earlier.
Area forecast discussion, Feb 5, 8:42 AM EST, 3 hours 13 minutes before
AREA FORECAST DISCUSSION NATIONAL WEATHER SERVICE LOUISVILLE KY 842 AM EST Wed Feb 5 2014 ...Forecast Update... Issued at 840 AM EST Wed Feb 5 2014 Ongoing forecast looks pretty good. Temperatures now are about as warm as it will get today as winds pick up from the west and northwest. Should see readings drop into the upper 20s by Noon along and west of the I-65/I-71 corridors and by a few hours later to the east. Still have a chance for some light snow the rest of the day, as soundings indicate a deepening of the moist layer as the weakening upper low moves just north of our area. The best chances still look to be across the north, and radar is showing a batch moving along the southern IL/IN border. We may see another tenth or two accumulate from these showers. .SHORT TERM (Now through Thursday)... Issued at 315 AM EST Tue Feb 5 2014 Now - Thursday... ...Traveler's Advisory Will Replace Winter Weather Headlines This Morning... The back edge of the main precipitation shield is now along the I-75 corridor. This precipitation, mostly in the form of rain at this point, will quickly exit east by 3 AM EST. A few areas are probably still cold enough to support freezing rain along and north of the I-64 corridor, but for the most part the wintry problems are briefly over. Still have several flood advisories out for southeastern portions of the CWA standing water and roadways under water. Things should improve through the pre-dawn hours since rain is ending. Focus will now shift to smaller concerns regarding the lighter precipitation, and in what form it will fall in through the morning hours. Temperatures are starting to slowly decline back toward, and just below, freezing and will continue to do so as the surface low quickly pushes off to the north and east. This will be a slow decline through dawn with patches of drizzle or very light rain until temps fall below freezing. Since moisture is very shallow right now as this dry slot pushes through, we will transition to pockets of freezing drizzle or light freezing rain once surface temps fall back below freezing. Moisture will then deepen back to the point where ice crystals will be introduced by mid to late morning and p-type will transition to scattered snow showers. Will handle these minor p-type challenges with a Traveler's Advisory (SPS) once the headlines are dropped. There is some concern about wet roadways re-freezing, but think the temp drop will be slow enough that this would be isolated. There also could be lingering slick spots, especially across southern Indiana where temps did not get above freezing. Could see a dusting to a quarter inch of snow from today's snow showers, especially across southern Indiana and north central Kentucky, but otherwise they aren't expected to cause much of a problem. Temperatures will struggle under the heavy cloud cover and steady northwest flow. Expect a rise only to the upper 20s across southern Indiana, and temps will actually stay steady or fall through the day in Kentucky. One other concern, will be that winds will be steady out of the WNW around 15 mph, gusting to 20-25 at times. This could put some strain on already iced power lines and limbs. We'll be dry by tonight continuing on Thursday as benign zonal flow aloft and surface high pressure build into the region. Temperatures are expected to drop to around 10 across southern IN and range from 15 to 20 across central KY tonight. Highs will only struggle to around 20 across southern IN, and into the 20s across KY. .LONG TERM (Thursday night through Tuesday)... Issued at 315 AM EST Wed Feb 5 2014 Models have had some difficulty over the last few days predicting the overall weather pattern for late this week into early next week. Current trends suggest a transient, progressive quasi-zonal pattern with embedded shortwaves that could lead to periodic precipitation. However, no major storms are evident at this time. In such a pattern, one would expect potentially significant differences in timing and strength of systems. In this case, however, while differences exist, there is some continuity in signal between the latest GFS and ECMWF deterministic models, and to some extent the Canadian GEM as well. The models show potential for a weak weather system Saturday and again next Tuesday. More on that below. The extended period will start with a weakening shortwave moving quickly across the TN Valley Thursday night. This system should come through dry as it encounters confluent flow aloft with no surface reflection. Looks like only clouds at this point, with some clearing by Friday morning. Low temps Friday morning should be quite cold again, with 2-6 above zero over south-central IN to the lower/mid teens over south-central Kentucky. On Friday night as the next shortwave approaches, clouds will increase and light snow could move in by Saturday morning. This is not a sure bet based on the progressive flow pattern, but given model continuity, have raised POPs some for Saturday. Precipitation should be snow over southern IN and the northern half of central KY, with a chance of light snow becoming a chance of light rain or a rain/snow mix over parts of south-central KY. As this system moves away, conditions remain chilly with high temps Sunday in the mid 20s to mid 30s from north to south, then even colder Monday with highs lower 20s in southern IN to near 30 over south-central KY. Raw ECMWF surface temps Monday morning actually go below zero over southern IN into north-central KY, with the GFS warmer. For now, have lows again in the 2-6 above zero range in southern IN, 5-10 over north-central and east-central KY and low-mid teens downstate. Certainly cold. On Tuesday, GFS and ECMWF agree overall that another shortwave could bring another round of at least light snow to our area. Such agreement in this pattern is actually a bit surprising that far out, but is subject to change. So, bottom line is that the cold winter season we have had should continue through the extended period, with a couple chances of some wintry precipitation, but no major storms expected at this time. && .AVIATION (12Z TAF Update)... Updated at 620 AM EST Wed Feb 5 2014 Low pressure now east of Cincinnati will pull away and high pressure will rapidly build towards Kentucky from the west. Westerly winds will increase readily right around the time this TAF issuance time. West winds averaging 13 to 15kt with some gusts over 20kt may be expected during the mid-morning hours, veering to the northwest and maintaining these speeds by early afternoon. Northwest winds will continue around 10kt from early evening through the overnight hours. Low strato-cu will continue all day and tonight as well. Current IFR ceilings will slowly rise to low end MVFR toward 14 to 15z for SDF and BWG, and an hour or so later for LEX. MVFR ceilings will continue to slowly rise towards and eventually above 2k feet by early to mid afternoon. MVFR ceilings are expected tonight as well. && .LMK WATCHES/WARNINGS/ADVISORIES...
