$$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 26, 5:58 AM CST, 6 hours 37 minutes earlier.
Area forecast discussion, Dec 26, 5:58 AM CST, 6 hours 37 minutes before
AREA FORECAST DISCUSSION...UPDATED AVIATION
NATIONAL WEATHER SERVICE ST LOUIS MO
558 AM CST SAT DEC 26 2015
.SHORT TERM: (Through Tonight)
Issued at 245 AM CST Sat Dec 26 2015
Confidence continues to increase that a high impact and
potentially historic flooding event will unfold this afternoon
through Monday. Life threatening flash flooding along
creeks/streams and other low lying areas is expected, along with
major to historic flooding on area rivers. The forecast itself has
not changed much at all with widespread rainfall amounts of 4-8
inches across the southeast half of the CWA. There was a slight
northwest adjustment to the heaviest axis of rainfall in the 00Z
guidance, but this did not impact headlines.
Showers and thunderstorms are quickly developing to our southwest
and advecting northeast toward the CWA as the warm front begins to
lift north. Believe coverage will become widespread by this
afternoon as a perfect recipe for heavy rainfall aligns overhead.
Key feature is a back building anticyclonically curved upper level
jet that will enduce an ageostrophic response, increasing
frontogenesis and therefore upward vertical motion. The focused
forcing and flow aloft parallel to the frontal zone, favors training
convection. Can't rule a few strong or severe storms occuring this
afternoon and evening along and south of the front as well. The
heaviest rainfall from this prolonged event will occur from this
afternoon through Sunday morning with a broad area of 3 to 5 inches
occurring. The convective nature of this precipitation could
produce locally higher amounts, especially if training persists.
CVKING
.LONG TERM: (Sunday through Friday)
Issued at 245 AM CST Sat Dec 26 2015
The front should sag south on Sunday, shifting the axis of
heaviest rainfall to the southern third of the CWA.
The final wave of potentially heavy rainfall will occur Sunday night
into Monday as a strong closed upper low and the associated
vertically stacked system lifts north/northeast through the middle
Mississippi River Valley. Due to the warm air aloft and track of the
system, believe the prospect of any wintry preciptiation remains
very low. Generally have painted another 1 to 3 inches of rain with
the system itself to come up with event total rainfall amounts of 4
to 8 inches.
Remainder of the forecast features sensible weather more
representative of winter with cold temperatures and a chance of
some light snow on Wednesday.
CVKING
&&
.AVIATION: (For the 12z TAFs through 12z Sunday Morning)
Issued at 546 AM CST Sat Dec 26 2015
IFR flight conditions in rain, thunderstorms, and fog will
overspread the area today. Expect IFR flight conditions to prevail
through the end of the forecast period with ceilings and
visibilities occasionally dropping below airport minimums in
heavy rain...especially along and south of the I-70 corridor.
Flight conditions below minimums may be reached across northeast
Missouri and west central Illinois as well, but more for low
ceilings and fog rather than heavy rain.
Specifics for KSTL:
Areal coverage of rain and thunderstorms in the STL metro area
will increase as the day progresses. Expect ceilings and
visibilities to lower to IFR and possibly below alternate minimums
by mid to late morning. Once ceilings drop to IFR...expect IFR
flight conditions with moderate to occasional heavy rain to
