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 Lincoln, IL wrote its last area forecast discussion before this river flood warning went out at Jun 14, 6:35 PM CDT, 2 hours 2 minutes earlier.

Area forecast discussion, Jun 14, 6:35 PM CDT, 2 hours 2 minutes before

AREA FORECAST DISCUSSION
NATIONAL WEATHER SERVICE LINCOLN IL
635 PM CDT SUN JUN 14 2015

.SHORT TERM...(TONIGHT)
ISSUED AT 301 PM CDT SUN JUN 14 2015

PERIODS OF SHOWERS AND THUNDERSTORMS WILL CONTINUE THROUGH THE
EVENING AND OVERNIGHT IN CENTRAL AND EASTERN IL. NUMEROUS LOW LEVEL
BOUNDARIES...SOME APPARENT IN THE LATEST SURFACE ANALYSIS AND OTHERS
CONVECTIVELY INDUCED...WILL CONTINUE TO PROVIDE THE FOCUS FOR
SHOWERS AND THUNDERSTORMS THROUGH THE LATE EVENING. THE MAIN CONCERN
WILL BE FOR THE POTENTIAL OF HEAVY RAIN WITH SOME OF THE STORMS DUE
TO COPIOUS AMOUNTS OF MOISTURE AND WEAKER WINDS ALOFT THAN THE PAST
FEW DAYS. INSTABILITY WILL BE MODERATE...BUT THE LACK OF WIND SHEAR
SHOULD KEEP WIDESPREAD SEVERE STORMS FROM DEVELOPING. HOWEVER...
ISOLATED STORMS MAY PRODUCE STRONG/SEVERE GUSTS DUE TO HEAVY
PRECIPITATION LOADING THIS EVENING. ANY STORMS THAT DEVELOP ALONG A
WSW-ENE BOUNDARY WILL HAVE THE GREATEST POTENTIAL FOR HEAVY RAIN AND
ISOLATED FLOODING DUE TO TRAINING EFFECTS.

MUCH OF THE CONVECTION SHOULD START TO WANE TOWARD MIDNIGHT...EXCEPT
FOR LINGERING AREAS ALONG AND NORTH OF I-74. THE REST OF CENTRAL AND
SOUTHEAST ILLINOIS CAN ONLY EXPECT SCATTERED SHOWERS AND A FEW
THUNDERSTORMS OVERNIGHT DUE TO WEAKER FORCING AND MORE DIFFUSE
BOUNDARIES.

AS THE COLD FRONT IN THE NORTHERN PLAINS PROGRESSES TOWARD CENTRAL
IOWA AROUND DAYBREAK...STORMS THAT DEVELOP AHEAD OF IT OVERNIGHT MAY
MAKE INTO WEST CENTRAL IL. THUS...HAVE INCREASED POPS BACK INTO THE
LIKELY CATEGORY MAINLY WEST OF THE IL RIVER VALLEY BY SUNRISE.

.LONG TERM...(MONDAY THROUGH SUNDAY)
ISSUED AT 301 PM CDT SUN JUN 14 2015

AN ACTIVE CONVECTIVE WEATHER PATTERN, ALONG WITH WARM AND HUMID
CONDITIONS, IS EXPECTED TO PERSIST ACROSS CENTRAL AND SOUTHEAST
ILLINOIS THROUGH THE FORECAST PERIOD. WHILE THERE WILL BE PERIODS
WHERE MORE WIDESPREAD AND/OR POTENTIALLY SEVERE STORMS ARE POSSIBLE,
IT PRETTY TOUGH TO PICK OUT AN OPPORTUNITY FOR COMPLETELY DRY
WEATHER AT THIS POINT. THIS IS RESULTING IN AN EXTENDED PERIOD OF
POPS THAT WILL HOPEFULLY BE ABLE TO BE FINE TUNED BETTER AS THE
DETAILS BECOME MORE CLEAR.

THE WORK WEEK WILL START OUT WITH ONE OF THE BETTER CHANCES FOR
SIGNIFICANT STORMS. AN UPPER-LEVEL LOW, CURRENTLY SPINNING OVER THE
PLAINS, AS WELL AS A WEAK SURFACE FRONT, WILL TRACK THROUGH THE
MIDWEST. PRE-FRONTAL CAPE VALUES OF 1500-2500 J/KG SHOULD BE COMMON
MONDAY AFTERNOON INTO THE EVENING, ALONG WITH BULK SHEAR VALUES
APPROACHING 35 KTS. THIS SCENARIO IS SUPPORTIVE OF SCATTERED STRONG
TO SEVERE STORMS AS THE FRONT PUSHES SOUTHEAST ACROSS THE AREA INTO
MONDAY NIGHT, WHICH IS WELL DEPICTED IN THE SPC DAY 2 OUTLOOK.

THE FRONT WILL STALL NOT TOO FAR SOUTH OF THE FORECAST AREA MONDAY
NIGHT, AND IT SHOULD STAY NEAR WHERE IT STALLS UNTIL THE NEXT
STRONGER UPPER WAVE PUSHES THROUGH THE MIDWEST ON WEDNESDAY. DUE TO
THE CLOSE PROXIMITY OF THE FRONT, AND THE FACT THAT THE AIRMASS WILL
REMAIN VERY MOIST AND POTENTIALLY UNSTABLE, POPS WILL STAY FAIRLY
HIGH INTO WEDNESDAY (LOWEST IN THE NORTH, FURTHER AWAY FROM SURFACE
BOUNDARY). THE PASSAGE OF THE NEXT MAJOR WAVE ON WEDNESDAY COULD
ALSO SUPPORT MORE ORGANIZED SEVERE WEATHER, WITH SHEAR PROFILES EVEN
BETTER THAN ANTICIPATED MONDAY, AT LEAST ACROSS THE SOUTHERN HALF OF
THE FORECAST AREA.

THE PASSAGE OF THE WEDNESDAY SYSTEM SHOULD RESULT IN A RELATIVE LULL
IN THE RAINFALL RISK. HOWEVER, BY THE END OF THE WEEK, CHANCES MAY
RAMP UP YET AGAIN AS POTENTIAL REMNANTS FROM A TROPICAL SYSTEM
COMING OUT OF THE GULF OF MEXICO TRACK NEAR THE AREA. THEN, BY LATE
IN THE WEEKEND, A PIECE OF ENERGY MORE TIED TO THE MAIN BELT OF THE
WESTERLIES TO OUR NORTH, WILL DRIVE A COLD FRONT THROUGH THE AREA
WITH AN ASSOCIATED SHOWER/STORM RISK.

.AVIATION...(FOR THE 00Z TAFS THROUGH 00Z MONDAY EVENING)

CONDITIONS WILL PRIMARILY BE VFR NEXT 24HRS EXCEPT FOR WHEN
THUNDERSTORMS ARE MOVING OVER THE SITES. WILL HAVE VCTS FOR ALL
SITES FOR NEXT 2-3 HRS AND THEN THINK PCPN WILL DISSIPATE AFTER
SUNSET. ONLY SITE WITH A TEMPO GROUP WILL BE BMI WHERE
THUNDERSTORM IS CURRENTLY THERE. BASED ON HIGH RES MODELS...MORE
THUNDERSTORMS ARE POSSIBLE LATE TONIGHT SO HAVE ANOTHER VCTS AFTER
09Z OR 10Z. THINK THIS WILL ONLY LAST TIL MID MORNING LEAVING
BEHIND BROKEN CIGS FOR REMAINDER OF THE AFTERNOON. WITH FRONTAL
BOUNDARY DROPPING INTO THE AREA FROM THE NORTHWEST BELIEVE MORE
THUNDERSTORMS POSSIBLE TOMORROW EVENING. THESE WILL BE AFTER
