$$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 Dec 13, 8:40 PM CST, 5 hours 12 minutes earlier.
Area forecast discussion, Dec 13, 8:40 PM CST, 5 hours 12 minutes before
AREA FORECAST DISCUSSION...UPDATED NATIONAL WEATHER SERVICE ST LOUIS MO 840 PM CST SUN DEC 13 2015 .UPDATE: Issued at 838 PM CST Sun Dec 13 2015 Fine line on radar of enhanced reflectivities marching east toward the Mississippi River marks a wind shift from the southeast to the southwest. Rain extends all the way back into southwest Missouri, with a good batch of showers event further west into Oklahoma. Have increased PoPs tomorrow morning to account for this lingering shower activity. Rainfall totals so far range from 1.5 inches across parts of central Missouri to trace amounts in south central Illinois. CVKING && .SHORT TERM: (Through Late Tonight) Issued at 309 PM CST Sun Dec 13 2015 Expect rain to continue over the area this evening as strong mid level ascent ahead of upper low currently over the central Plains will be found over strong low level moisture convergence. 70kt low level jet continues to bring plenty of Gulf moisture with the RAP depicting PWATs now near 1.8 inches this afternoon. Latest runs of the CAMS show that the steady rain will cover much of the CWA this evening before diminishing from southwest to northeast after midnight as the moisture convergence axis shifts eastward. Some of the momentum of the low level jet will likely also transport downward to the surface tonight causing windy conditions. While it does not appear at this time we will reach advisory criteria, sustained southerly winds of 15-30 mph with higher gusts will be possible. Britt .LONG TERM: (Monday through Next Sunday) Issued at 309 PM CST Sun Dec 13 2015 (Monday-Wednesday) ECMWF and NAM are in good agreement that a negatively tilted trough will rotate around the base of the upper low on Monday morning. This should bring an end to the showers once it moves through our area and subsidence develops in behind the trough. Upper low will quickly move off into the Great Lakes late Monday and Monday night as a shortwave ridge moves across the area early on Tuesday. Still looks like there will be a strong upper low move from the central high Plains into the upper Midwest at midweek which will cause a cold front to move across the area on Wednesday. Available moisture and forcing ahead of this front still looks limited, so will only maintain low chances of rain Tuesday night and Wednesday. Temperatures will remain or fall slightly on Monday with the clouds and cold air advection. Highs on Tuesday will warm back up closer to the warmer GFS MOS temperatures before they fall on Wednesday behind the cold front. (Thursday-Sunday) ECMWF and GFS Ensemble Mean are in pretty good agreement that longwave trough will move across Missouri and Illinois on Friday before upper flow begins to become more zonal next weekend. While there is no QPF depicted in the models, the cyclonic curvature would suggest there should be at least partly cloudy skies on Friday before subsidence sets in over the weekend. GEFS mean and ECMWF 850mb temps are still going down into the -5 to -15 range by Friday night which means it will finally feel like December. Britt && .AVIATION: (For the 00z TAFs through 00z Monday Evening) Issued at 554 PM CST Sun Dec 13 2015 Expect RA to continue thru the night. After the RA shield passes NE of the terminal, expect an area of SHRA to move thru the region late tonight and into Mon morning. Expect mainly low MVFR conditions within the main RA shield, but some pockets of IFR are possible. With sunset, these pockets may expand, but will need to monitor trends. Also expect winds to pick up late tonight and thru Mon morning. Going wind forecast may not be high enuf, but will wait for more guidance tonight. Expect MVFR cigs to persist thru Mon, perhaps becoming VFR Mon evening. Tilly && .LSX WATCHES/WARNINGS/ADVISORIES: MO...NONE. IL...NONE. && WFO LSX
