The local office's own words before this flash flood warning went out, as it sent them, from the Iowa Environmental Mesonet's archive of National Weather Service text.

Area forecast discussion, Jun 17, 6:10 PM CDT, 40 minutes before

AREA FORECAST DISCUSSION
NATIONAL WEATHER SERVICE FORT WORTH TX
610 PM CDT WED JUN 17 2015

.UPDATE...
THE CENTER OF TROPICAL DEPRESSION BILL IS NOW LOCATED NEAR DENTON
AND HAS MADE A NORTHEASTWARD TURN. THE ORIENTATION OF THE 3 HOUR
SURFACE PRESSURE CHANGE ANALYSIS IS TELEGRAPHING THAT THIS MOTION
SHOULD CONTINUE THROUGH THE NEXT SEVERAL HOURS WITH CENTER LIKELY
TRACKING INTO THE SHERMAN AREA AROUND 8 PM. MEANWHILE THE
PRESSURES HAVE FALLEN IN THE CENTER DURING THE LAST FEW
HOURS...NOW DROPPING BELOW 1000 MB AT A FEW SITES FROM NORTH FORT
WORTH TO DENTON. THE STRENGTHENING IS PROBABLY AN INDICATION IT IS
INTERACTING WITH SOME LARGER SCALE MID-LATITUDE DYNAMICS. AS A
RESULT...SURFACE WINDS HAVING INCREASED A BIT DURING THE LAST HOUR
OR TWO ON THE EASTERN AND SOUTHERN SIDE OF THE CIRCULATION WHERE
GUSTS ARE PUSHING 45 MPH. HAVE EXTENDED THE WIND ADVISORY FOR THE
DFW METROPLEX AND POINTS NORTH AND EAST OF THERE THROUGH 10 PM.

AS FAR AS THE HEAVY RAIN THREAT...THE MAIN CONCERN IS GOING TO
BE NEAR THE CORE OF THE SYSTEM THIS EVENING...BUT THIS SHOULD
SHIFT NORTH OF THE RED RIVER AFTER MIDNIGHT. HOWEVER THE BAND OF
RAIN FROM PARIS TO CANTON TO CORSICANA TO TEMPLE IS EXPECTED TO
PERSIST AND SLOWLY MOVE EAST THROUGH THE OVERNIGHT HOURS ACCORDING
TO SHORT TERM GUIDANCE. WILL CONTINUE TO MONITOR THIS AREA
CLOSELY.

.AVIATION...

/ISSUED 124 PM CDT WED JUN 17 2015/

FOR THE 18Z TAFS...THE IMPACTS OF THE REMNANTS OF TROPICAL STORM
BILL IS THE PRIMARY FORECAST CONCERN OVER THE NEXT 12 TO 24
HOURS.

THE CENTER OF THE REMNANTS OF BILL WAS LOCATED NEAR THE
TARRANT/PARKER/JOHNSON COUNTY BORDERS AS OF 1 PM. TO THE EAST OF
THIS CIRCULATION...PERSISTENT LIGHT RAIN WITH SOME MODERATE RAIN
SHOWERS MIXED IN WERE MOVING OVER ALL DFW AREA TAF SITES. THE
SMALL RAIN DROP SIZE WAS HOLDING VISIBILITIES DOWN TO 2 MILES OR
BELOW DESPITE RELATIVELY LOW RAINFALL RATES ACROSS THE DFW AREA.
IFR VISIBILITIES WILL LIKELY CONTINUE UNTIL AT LEAST 21Z. RADAR
AND SATELLITE OBSERVATIONS SHOWED SOME DRIER AIR MIXING INTO THE
REMNANTS OF BILL FROM THE SOUTHWEST. IF SOME OF THIS DRIER AIR CAN
WORK IN OVER THE DFW AREA THIS AFTERNOON...CONDITIONS SHOULD
IMPROVE TO MVFR. WINDS ARE EXPECTED TO REMAIN RELATIVELY STRONG
AND SUSTAINED AT AROUND 20 TO 25 MPH...GUSTING TO 30 TO 35 MPH
THROUGH SUNSET.

DRIER AIR WORKING IN MAY ALSO ALLOW FOR A COUPLE OF HOURS OF
HEATING. BECAUSE THERE IS NO CAP IN PLACE...ANY HEATING MAY CAUSE
SCATTERED SHOWERS AND THUNDERSTORMS TO DEVELOP OR INTENSIFY. KEPT
A MENTION OF VICINITY SHOWERS IN THE TAFS THROUGH THIS EVENING DUE
TO THE POTENTIAL FOR THIS REDEVELOPMENT. THINK THE COVERAGE WILL
REMAIN SCATTERED IN NATURE ONCE THE REMNANTS OF BILL MOVE NORTH OF
THE DFW AREA. WITH BILL ALREADY WELL NORTH OF WACO, ONLY SCATTERED
SHOWERS OR THUNDERSTORMS ARE EXPECTED OVER THE NEXT 24 HOURS
ACROSS CENTRAL TEXAS.

SHOWERS AND THUNDERSTORMS MAY DEVELOP ONCE AGAIN TOMORROW DURING
THE PEAK HEATING HOURS OF THE DAY...HOWEVER CONFIDENCE IN THE
EXACT TIMING AND COVERAGE OF STORMS ACROSS THE REGION TOMORROW
REMAINS TOO LOW TO PLACE A MENTION OF THUNDERSTORMS AT THE END OF
THE DFW 30 HOUR TAF.

.PREV DISCUSSION... /ISSUED 331 PM CDT WED JUN 17 2015/

BILLS TRACK THROUGH NORTH TEXAS HAS NOT CHANGED MUCH AS IT
CONTINUES TO MOVE NORTH AT 12 MPH JUST WEST OF THE I-35/35W
CORRIDOR. MODERATE TO HEAVY RAINFALL HAS RESULTED OVER THE PAST 24
HOURS WITH A CORRIDOR OF 2-4+ INCHES RAINFALL RUNNING FROM CAMERON
TO WACO...CLEBURNE...DECATUR TO WEST OF GAINESVILLE. AREAS AROUND
DECATUR IN WISE COUNTY HAVE RECEIVED OVER 6 INCHES. AT 230
PM...BILL WAS LOCATED OVER WESTERN TARRANT COUNTY NEAR AZLE AND
LOOKS IMPRESSIVE ON OUR LOCAL KFWS 88D RADAR. WE EXPECT IT TO
REACH THE RED RIVER NORTHWEST OF GAINESVILLE AROUND 10 PM AND MOVE
INTO THE OKLAHOMA CITY AREA MIDDAY THURSDAY.

WE/VE MODIFIED THE FLASH FLOOD WATCH BY REMOVING THE WESTERN AND
SOUTHERN AREAS AS THESE AREAS WILL REMAIN OUTSIDE OF THE RAIN
SHIELD OF MODERATE TO HEAVY RAINFALL OCCURRING OVER THE NORTHWEST
AND NORTH PERIPHERY. CORE RAINS ARE LIKELY TO DEVELOP TONIGHT AFTER
MIDNIGHT AND WILL LIKELY AFFECT THE RED RIVER COUNTIES OF
MONTAGUE...COOKE AND GRAYSON.

THE WIND ADVISORY HAS BEEN MODIFIED AS WELL TO REMOVE THE SOUTHERN
COUNTIES. THE STRONGEST WINDS ASSOCIATED WITH BILL/S PRESSURE
GRADIENT SHOULD REMAIN WITHIN 60-70 MILES OF THE CENTER AS IT
MOVES NORTH. EXPECT THE WIND ADVISORY WILL BE ALLOWED TO EXPIRE
AT 7 PM THIS EVENING.

WE WILL MAINTAIN SOME HIGH POPS ON THURSDAY AS MOIST UNSTABLE AIR
CONTINUES TO FEED INTO BILL AS FEEDER BANDS. THE HIGHEST POPS
WILL BE CENTERED OVER THE NORTHEAST COUNTIES WITH AN AXIS RUNNING
DOWN INTO THE WACO/TEMPLE AREA. POPS WILL DIMINISH EVEN MORE ON
FRIDAY AS BILL MOVES INTO NORTHEAST OKLAHOMA. FOR SATURDAY...ONLY
THE SOUTHEAST COUNTIES WILL HAVE A 20-30 CHANCE OF RAIN AS BILLS
INFLUENCE OVER THE REGION WANES.

AS THE RAIN ENDS AND BILL MOVES FARTHER AWAY...TEMPERATURES WILL
RETURN TO AROUND NORMAL FRIDAY THROUGH MID NEXT WEEK. AFTERNOON
HEAT INDICES NEXT WEEK WILL BE TOPPING OUT IN THE UPPER 90S TO
NEAR 100 DEGREES OVER THE EASTERN HALF OF THE CWA.

AFTERNOON CONVECTION WILL BE POSSIBLE OVER THE FAR SOUTHEAST ON
SATURDAY AS A WEAK EASTERLY WAVE MOVES WEST NEAR THE I-10
CORRIDOR. THIS WAVE WILL ALSO RESULT IN CONVECTION OVER THE
SOUTHWEST COUNTIES ON SUNDAY. ANOTHER CHANCE OF CONVECTION WILL
RETURN TO THE FAR SOUTHERN COUNTIES MID NEXT WEEK. 75
