$$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 Birmingham, AL wrote its last area forecast discussion before this river flood warning went out at Dec 26, 2:12 AM CST, 1 hour 5 minutes earlier.
Area forecast discussion, Dec 26, 2:12 AM CST, 1 hour 5 minutes before
AREA FORECAST DISCUSSION NATIONAL WEATHER SERVICE BIRMINGHAM AL 212 AM CST SAT DEC 26 2015 .SHORT TERM... TODAY AND TONIGHT... ANOTHER USUAL DAY ACROSS CENTRAL ALABAMA AS WELL ABOVE NORMAL TEMPERATURES WERE OBSERVED ONCE MORE IN ADDITION TO WELL ABOVE NORMAL RAINFALL. IN FACT WIDESPREAD FLOODING CONTINUES ACROSS A GOOD CHUNK OF THE FORECAST AREA. THERE ARE SEVERAL AREAS SHUT DOWN TO TRAVEL DUE TO THE FLOODING ACROSS THE AREA. SO THE QUESTION IS WILL THIS ACTIVITY STOP ANYTIME SOON. THE ANSWER TO THAT IS YES...BUT NOT SOON ENOUGH AND NOT FOR LONG ENOUGH. RAINFALL IS ALREADY BEGINNING TO REDEVELOP ACROSS THE SOUTHWESTERN COUNTIES AND WILL CONTINUE TO SPREAD NORTHWARD THROUGH THE NIGHT. THE BULK OF THE RAIN SHOULD REMAIN ACROSS THE WEST AND CENTRAL SECTIONS OVERNIGHT AND INTO THE MORNING AND THEN EVENTUALLY SLIDE FURTHER NORTH DURING THE MORNING HOURS. THIS REMAINS AN EXTREMELY DANGEROUS SITUATION AND TRAVEL SHOULD BE LIMITED ACROSS WARNED AREAS. WITH THE ABUNDANT MOISTURE IN PLACE ACROSS THE AREA...AREAS OF FOG WILL IMPACT THE SOUTHEAST...WHERE THE RAIN DID NOT REALLY OCCUR TONIGHT. ELSEWHERE PATCHY FOG WILL BE POSSIBLE OUTSIDE OF THE RAIN THROUGH 9 AM. THIS CAN CAUSE ANOTHER DANGEROUS SITUATION IF YOU ARE OUT AND ABOUT THIS MORNING AS THE FOG MAY IMPEDE YOU FROM SEEING ANY FLOODED ROADWAYS. USE PLENTY OF CAUTION IF TRAVELINGBUT BEST ADVICE IS TO AVOID TRAVEL IF POSSIBLE. TONIGHT...RAIN CHANCES REMAIN BUT HIGH PRESSURE BEGINS TO BUILD INTO THE AREA FROM THE SOUTHWEST AND WILL TRY TO DRY OUT THE AREA SOME. 16 .LONG TERM... SUNDAY THROUGH THURSDAY... AS WE WORK INTO SUNDAY THE AFOREMENTIONED HIGH PRESSURE WILL BE SHORT LIVED AND ANOTHER SYSTEM WILL BEGIN TO WORK INTO THE AREA...THUS INCREASING RAIN CHANCES THROUGH MONDAY NIGHT. LOOKS LIKE THE MAIN FRONT WORK INTO THE AREA ON MONDAY WITH MORE HEAVY RAINS...THUNDERSTORMS AND POSSIBLE FLOODING. WE WILL ALSO BE LOOKING AT STRONG TO POTENTIALLY SEVERE STORMS ON MONDAY AS WELL...BUT WILL CONTINUE TO EVALUATE THE INFORMATION AS IT COMES IN. THE GOOD NEWS WITH THE SYSTEM MONDAY IS THAT IT WILL BRING IN MUCH COOLER AND NEAR SEASONAL TEMPERATURES TO THE AREA. ANOTHER QUICK LIVED HIGH PRESSURE ON TUESDAY BEFORE ANOTHER SHORTWAVE MOVES IN AND BRINGS BACK THE WEST WEATHER FOR WEDNESDAY AND THURSDAY. THIS WILL LIKELY CONTINUE TO PROVIDE FLOODING CONCERNS UNTIL WE CAN FINALLY GET THIS ABUNDANT MOISTURE OUT OF THE AREA. COULD BE SOME PROMISE OF THAT BY THE START OF 2016. 16 && .AVIATION... 06Z TAF DISCUSSION. ABUNDANT LOW LEVEL MOISTURE AND ISENTROPIC UPGLIDE SHOULD BRING CIGS BACK INTO THE IFR CATEGORY OVERNIGHT. CONFIDENCE REMAINS LOW IN THE VIS FORECAST AS SOME PATCHY DENSE FOG COULD BE POSSIBLE IF WINDS BECOME LIGHT/CALM. AT THIS TIME...THE BEST CHANCE OF THIS OCCURRING WOULD BE ACROSS THE SOUTH SO WILL LEAVE A TEMPO IN NEAR SUNRISE FOR NOW. DESPITE VIS CONFIDENCE CONFIDENCE ON IFR CIGS ARE QUITE HIGH. CIGS MAY STAY IFR FOR MOST OF THE DAY ACROSS THE NORTH AS WELL. EVEN IF CIGS DO RISE TO MVFR BY THE AFTERNOON ACROSS THE AREA...CIGS WILL RETURN TO IFR ACROSS THE NORTH AFTER 03Z. AREAS IN THE SOUTH MAY REMAIN MVFR OR EVEN RISE TO VFR AS HIGH PRESSURE BUILDS IN. 16 && .FIRE WEATHER... THE UNUSUALLY WARM AND WET WEATHER PATTERN WILL CONTINUE ACROSS CENTRAL ALABAMA THROUGH THE WEEKEND AND INTO THE FIRST OF THE WEEK. && .PRELIMINARY POINT TEMPS/POPS...
