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 Des Moines, IA wrote its last area forecast discussion before this river flood warning went out at Aug 29, 6:48 AM CDT, 48 minutes earlier.
Area forecast discussion, Aug 29, 6:48 AM CDT, 48 minutes before
AREA FORECAST DISCUSSION NATIONAL WEATHER SERVICE DES MOINES IA 648 AM CDT SAT AUG 29 2015 .SHORT TERM /TODAY/... ISSUED AT 338 AM CDT SAT AUG 29 2015 MAIN CONCERNS TODAY WILL BE CLOUDS...FOG AND TEMP TRENDS. MID LEVEL TROUGH IS CURRENTLY MOVING THROUGH SERN FORECAST AREA WITH ASSOCIATED LIFT INTO MO AND IL LEADING TO A DRY FORECAST. 08Z SURFACE ANALYSIS PLACES SURFACE LOW JUST NE OF DES MOINES WITH ASSOCIATED FRONTAL BOUNDARIES FROM NW OF LAMONI...THROUGH DES MOINES...TO JUST SE OF WATERLOO. VISIBILITIES HAVE DROPPED ALONG AND NW OF THIS LINE WITH AREAS OF FOG...SO THIS MENTION WILL BE KEPT THROUGH 13Z AND SAGGING JUST A BIT MORE SOUTH AND EAST WITH THE FRONT. HIGHER RES RAP/HRRR/NMM/ARW RUNS SEEM TO BE HANDLING STRATUS WELL AND SUGGEST GRADUALLY SOUTH AND EAST MOVEMENT TO THE BACK EDGE THROUGH THE DAY. CLEARING LIKELY WILL NOT REACH SERN SECTIONS HOWEVER SO HAVE UNDERCUT EVEN THE COOLEST GUIDANCE THERE...TOWARD OTTUMWA FOR INSTANCE. THIS MAY RESULT IN FAIRLY HOMOGENEOUS HIGHS. .LONG TERM /TONIGHT THROUGH THURSDAY/... ISSUED AT 338 AM CDT SAT AUG 29 2015 MOST OF THE LONG TERM FORECAST PERIOD WILL BE CHARACTERIZED BY A MID/UPPER LEVEL BLOCKING PATTERN WITH A LARGE HIGH PRESSURE RIDGE EXTENDING FROM THE FOUR CORNERS REGION NORTHEASTWARD ACROSS THE MIDWESTERN STATES...WHILE A PERSISTENT LONGWAVE TROUGH PERSISTS FROM BRITISH COLUMBIA DOWN THE PACIFIC U.S. COAST. THIS WILL GENERALLY RESULT IN WARM...DRY...AND MOSTLY CLEAR WEATHER ACROSS OUR FORECAST AREA FOR THE MAJORITY OF THE WEEK. HAVE THUS MAINTAINED A WARMING TREND INTO MONDAY FOLLOWED BY HIGHS IN THE MID TO UPPER 80S THROUGH THE END OF THE FORECAST PERIOD. HOWEVER...WITHIN THIS GENERALLY QUIET FORECAST THERE ARE A FEW ITEMS OF NOTE AND LOW CHANCES FOR RAINFALL. FIRST...IT SEEMS LIKELY THAT THERE WILL ONCE AGAIN BE FOG LATE TONIGHT INTO EARLY SUNDAY. FOG HAS BEEN FAIRLY WIDESPREAD ACROSS THE AREA THE PREVIOUS TWO NIGHT...AND TONIGHT A SURFACE HIGH PRESSURE RIDGE WILL DRAPE ACROSS IOWA WITH FORECAST SOUNDINGS SHOWING A FAIRLY STRONG SURFACE INVERSION DEVELOPING AS ONE WOULD EXPECT. HAVE INTRODUCED PATCHY FOG AREAWIDE AFTER MIDNIGHT TONIGHT...BUT IT IS POSSIBLE THAT IT MAY BECOME MORE WIDESPREAD THAN THAT. SECOND...THERE IS CONSENSUS THAT A WEAK 500 MB TROUGH WILL CROSS THE REGION BETWEEN LATE TUESDAY AND WEDNESDAY BRIEFLY SEVERING THE RIDGE AND SLIGHTLY INTERRUPTING THE WARMING TREND. THE PASSAGE OF THIS TROUGH MAY PROVIDE SUFFICIENT IMPETUS TO GENERATE A FEW SHOWERS AND THUNDERSTORMS...MAINLY TUESDAY NIGHT INTO WEDNESDAY MORNING...AND HAVE MAINTAINED SLIGHT CHANCE POPS TO ACCOUNT FOR THIS. FINALLY...BY NEXT WEEKEND THE MID/UPPER PATTERN WILL BEGIN TO SHIFT SLIGHTLY EASTWARD WITH THE LARGE RIDGE LAYING ACROSS THE SOUTH CENTRAL U.S. AND THE LONGWAVE TROUGH CENTERING OVER THE NORTHERN ROCKIES. THIS WOULD PLACE US CLOSER TO THE PERIPHERY OF THE CYCLONIC FLOW AROUND THE TROUGH...AND RESULTS IN A REINTRODUCTION OF LOW POPS ACROSS OUR NORTHERN AND WESTERN COUNTIES BY SATURDAY. IT WILL BE A WHILE YET BEFORE THE RIDGE FULLY BREAKS DOWN HOWEVER...AND NO SIGNIFICANT COOLING OR WIDESPREAD RAINFALL CHANCES ARE SEEN AT LEAST THROUGH NEXT WEEKEND. && .AVIATION...29/12Z ISSUED AT 647 AM CDT SAT AUG 29 2015 CIG AND VSBY TRENDS WILL CONTINUE TO BE THE MAIN CONCERN THROUGH THE PERIOD. WIDESPREAD IFR/LIFR CONDITIONS ARE IN PLACE ALONG AND NW OF A FRONTAL BOUNDARY JUST APPROACHING KOTM AT 12Z WITH THE BACK EDGE OF CLEARING STILL OUTSIDE OF THE FORECAST AREA NW. MODELS SUGGEST THE CLEARING LINE WILL GRADUALY OOZE S AND E THROUGH THE DAY BUT KOTM WILL LIKELY SEE AT LEAST IFR CONDITIONS THROUGH THE AFTERNOON. ALL TAF SITES SHOULD CLEAR TOWARD SUNSET...BUT MORE RADIATION FOG WILL LIKELY DEVELOP OVERNIGHT. WET SOILS...LITTLE PREVIOUS DAYTIME MIXING WITH LINGERING STRATUS...AND LIGHT OVERNIGHT WINDS WILL ALL CONTRIBUTE TO IDEAL FOG CONDITIONS INTO SUN MORNING. TYPICALLY WOULD NOT DO THIS TOWARD TAIL END OF VALID PERIOD...BUT HAVE RELATIVELY HIGH CONFIDENCE THAT IFR VSBYS WILL REDEVELOP. && .DMX WATCHES/WARNINGS/ADVISORIES...NONE. && SHORT TERM...SMALL LONG TERM...LEE AVIATION...SMALL
