$$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 Jul 12, 6:35 AM CDT, 3 hours 21 minutes earlier.
Area forecast discussion, Jul 12, 6:35 AM CDT, 3 hours 21 minutes before
AREA FORECAST DISCUSSION...UPDATED AVIATION
NATIONAL WEATHER SERVICE ST LOUIS MO
635 AM CDT SUN JUL 12 2015
.SHORT TERM: (THROUGH LATE THIS AFTERNOON)
ISSUED AT 330 AM CDT SUN JUL 12 2015
SHOWERS AND THUNDERSTORMS CONTINUE ACROSS PARTS OF NORTHEAST MO
AND WEST CENTRAL IL CENTERED NEAR THE MS RIVER AT 08Z. THE OVERALL
COVERAGE, INTENSITY AND ORGANIZATION HAS DIMINISHED SIGNIFICANTLY
COMPARED TO SEVERAL HOURS EARLIER, AND THIS APPEARS TO BE IN
RESPONSE TO VEERING OF THE LLJ/DECREASING LIFT ALONG AND NORTH OF
THE TRAILING OUTFLOW BOUNDARY. RECENT HRRR RUNS SUGGEST THIS
DOWNWARD TREND SHOULD CONTINUE AS THE ACTIVITY SLIDES TO THE
SOUTHEAST WITH ANY RESIDUAL PRECIPITATION AFTER DAYBREAK PROBABLY
EAST OF THE MS RIVER IN IL, AND DYING QUICKLY. THEREAFTER CLOUDS
SHOULD THIN, SURFACE WINDS SHOULD RECOVER AND BECOME SOUTHWESTERLY
AND TEMPS WILL RISE QUICKLY. THE MODELS FORECAST SIGNIFICANT LOW-
MID LEVEL WARMING SUGGESTING THE WESTERN EDGE OF THE CAP SHOULD
ADVANCE EAST OF THE CWA BY EARLY EVENING. HIGHS IN THE LOW-MID 90S
WITH THE HIGHEST CENTERED IN THE ST. LOUIS METRO AREA ARE STILL ON
TRACK, AS IS THE PREVIOUSLY ISSUED METRO STL HEAT ADVISORY.
GLASS
.LONG TERM: (TONIGHT THROUGH SATURDAY)
ISSUED AT 330 AM CDT SUN JUL 12 2015
THERE CONTINUE TO BE ALOT OF QUESTIONS ON THE POTENTIAL FOR
THUNDERSTORMS TONIGHT INTO MONDAY NIGHT. THE MODEL QPFS ARE QUITE
VARIED WITH SOME OF THEM GENERATING PRECIPITATION WELL BACK INTO
VERY WARM MID LEVEL TEMPERATURES THAT SHOULD SUPPRESS DEEP
CONVECTION. NONE OF THE MODELS HAVE FORECAST QPF PARTICULARILY
WELL THE LAST FEW DAYS AND THE NORMALLY RELIABLE ECMWF HAS SHOWN A
BIAS WITH TOO MUCH QPF INTO THE WARM MID LEVEL TEMPS. IF THE MODEL
FORECASTS OF THESE WARMING MID LEVEL TEMPS IS ON TARGET, I THINK
THE MAIN CORRIDOR OF ACTION TONIGHT WILL BE FROM NORTHEAST IA
INTO CENTRAL IL INTO INDIANA ASSOCIATED WITH THE NEXT NORTHWEST
FLOW SHORTWAVE MOVING OUT OF THE UPPER MS VALLEY. ONLY THE NORTHEAST
FRINGES OR OUR CWA SHOULD HAVE ANY CHANCE OF CONVECTION TONIGHT
INTO EARLY MONDAY MORNING.
THE LOW-MID LEVELS CONTINUE TO WARM ON MONDAY WITH 700 MB TEMPS OF
+12 TO +14 DEGC BY 00Z WEDENSDAY, WHICH AGAIN CASTS UNCERTAINTY
THROUGH EARLY EVENING ON THE WESTERN EXTENT OF ANY CONVECTION.
I'LL CONTINUE TO KEEP A CHANCE OF THUNDERSTORMS IN THE FORECAST
FROM FAR EASTERN MO INTO WESTERN IL ON MONDAY ACCOUNTING FOR BOTH
THE UNCERTAINTY IN THE EARLY MORNING AND AGAIN IN THE LATER
AFTERNOON. ONCE AGAIN IF THESE FORECAST MID LEVEL TEMPS ARE
CORRECT I THINK THE MAIN CORRIDOR OF THUNDERSTORM ACTIVITY WILL BE
JUST NORTHEAST AND EAST OF THE CWA IN IL. WHEREEVER THAT EDGE OF
THE CAP IS LOCATED, THE REGION WILL BE VERY UNSTABLE BY AFTERNOON
WITH STRONG DEEP LAYER SHEAR SUPPORTIVE OF ORGANIZED SEVERE
THUNDERSTORMS. MONDAY LOOKS TO BE THE HOTEST DAY THUS FAR THIS
SUMMER WITH HIGHS WELL INTO THE 90S, THE HOTTEST TEMPS AGAIN
CENTERED ON METRO ST. LOUIS. HEAT INDICES OF 105+ WILL OCCUPY
GREATER REAL ESTATE AND I HAVE EXPANDED THE HEAT ADVISORY TO ALL
BUT THE FAR SOUTHERN CWA/EASTERN OZARKS.
A SERIES OF SHORT WAVES WILL CONTINUE TO TRACK FROM THE UPPER MS
VALLEY THROUGH THE LOWER GREAT LAKES AND INTO THE OH VALLEY ON
MONDAY NIGHT AND THESE SHOULD PROMPT HEIGHT FALLS AND MID LEVEL
COOLING. WHILE THE MAIN ACTION ZONE WILL REMAIN TO OUR EAST, THE
COOLING ALOFT AND FRONT SINKING INTO THE AREA ARE SUFFICIENT FOR A
THREAT OF SCATTERED THUNDERSTORMS ON MONDAY NIGHT. WHILE THE FRONT
WILL BISECT THE AREA ON TUESDAY WITH THE MAIN CHANCE OF SHOWERS
AND THUNDERSTORMS ACROSS SOUTHERN MO AND SOUTHERN IL, ONLY MODEST
COOLING WILL OCCUR AND MANY AREAS WILL STILL HAVE SEASONABLY HOT
TEMPS BUT LOWER DEW POINTS AND LOWER OVERALL HEAT INDEX VALUES. A
REINFORCING FRONT WILL ENTER THE AREA LATE TUESDAY INTO WEDNESDAY
BRINGING BETTER COOLING AND A BRIEF DRY PERIOD, HOWEVER THE FRONT
THEN WAVERS BACK NORTHWARD WEDNESDAY NIGHT-THURSDAY WITH AN
ATTENDANT CHANCE OF SHOWERS AND THUNDERSTORMS.
