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 St. Louis, MO wrote its last area forecast discussion before this river flood warning went out at Sep 10, 7:02 AM CDT, 1 hour 9 minutes earlier.

Area forecast discussion, Sep 10, 7:02 AM CDT, 1 hour 9 minutes before
AREA FORECAST DISCUSSION...UPDATED AVIATION
NATIONAL WEATHER SERVICE ST LOUIS MO
702 AM CDT Wed Sep 10 2014

.SHORT TERM: (Today and Tonight)
Issued at 327 AM CDT Wed Sep 10 2014

First concern for today is the ongoing heavy rain event across
northeast Missouri and west central Illinois, and how far this heavy
rain will spread to the southeast this morning.  Second short-term
concern is the probability for severe weather this afternoon into
this evening ahead of the cold front.  Latest radar imagery shows
the rain coming to an end behind an MCV over northeast Kansas, but
this still leaves several hours of moderate to heavy rainfall for
northeast Missouri and west central Illinois.  With rainfall rates
in excess of 1.5 inches per hour in some spots, think we will extend
the flash flood watch beyond 12Z this morning.  Expect the low level
jet induced heavy rain will taper off and end by late morning as the
850mb low moves northeast away from our area decreasing the pressure
gradient thereby weakening the low level jet.  Until then, would not
be surprised if some parts of the flash flood watch area receive an
additional 3 to 5 inches of rain on top of what has already fallen.

Conceptually, there should be some dry time (or at least some time
when the solid rain will diminish to just scattered or isolated
showers) across the area during the morning and early afternoon
between the low level jet induced precip and the storms which should
develop ahead of the front this afternoon.  Think there will also be
some sun poking through the clouds at some point during the late
morning or early afternoon.  Guidance indicates there will be
1500-2000 J/Kg MLCAPE by 18-21Z this afternoon ahead of the front
with 30-40kts of 0-6km shear.  The shear vector is closer to
parallel to the front so convection should quickly become linear
with the potential for bows and LEWPs.  Damaging winds will be the
primary threat as the warm cloud layer will be quite deep and
lapserates are not terribly steep.  Cold front will sweep southeast
and should be through the area by 06-09Z bringing and end to the
precip and ushering in cooler/drier air.

Carney

.LONG TERM:  (Thursday through Tuesday)
Issued at 404 AM CDT Wed Sep 10 2014

Remainder of the forecast will be much quieter.  Canadian high
pressure will drop into the Great Plains and Midwest behind the cold
front and dominate our weather for Thursday through at least
Sunday.  Guidance continues to advertise temperatures well below
normal associated with this high.  The cool-down continues to look
pretty dramatic with highs falling from the mid and upper 80s today
down to the 60s to near 70 through Saturday.  A shortwave will move
across the area late Friday into Friday night which should produce
some scattered showers across much of the area.  The weekend
continues to look dry, but another wave will dive southeast Sunday
night and bring the region another shot of precip late Sunday night
into Monday.

Carney

.AVIATION:  (For the 12z TAFs through 12z Thursday Morning)
Issued at 702 AM CDT Wed Sep 10 2014

Round number one of the rain is exiting UIN and COU and will
affect the STL metro sites thru 15z. This is just the first round
and we expect a new line of TSRA to develop along the cold front
during the late morning and midday hours and affect the TAF sites
for a few hours...beginning with UIN and COU late morning and
early afternoon, and the STL metro sites mid to late afternoon.
The storms in the afternoon could be strong to severe, so
something to watch and amend as confidence on this increases. Once
the cold front moves thru, expect a prolonged period of MVFR
ceilings for tonight.

Specifics for KSTL: Round number one of the rain will affect the
airport thru 14-15z with round two set for late this afternoon
just ahead of the cold front. The second round could be strong to
severe but too early to place this in to the TAF just yet. A
prolonged period of MVFR ceilings are anticipated once the front
moves thru early this evening around 00z.
