$$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 Jun 15, 11:52 AM CDT, 47 minutes earlier.
Area forecast discussion, Jun 15, 11:52 AM CDT, 47 minutes before
AREA FORECAST DISCUSSION...UPDATED AVIATION NATIONAL WEATHER SERVICE ST LOUIS MO 1152 AM CDT Mon Jun 15 2015 .SHORT TERM: (Through This Afternoon) Issued at 432 AM CDT Mon Jun 15 2015 Upper level HIGH remains anchored over the southeastern CONUS early this morning and maintains the SW flow aloft over our region. This has allowed a very moist airmass thru the column to exist, with PWs near 2 inches. Despite the rich moisture, the radar mosaic is currently largely pcpn echo-free. A light southerly flow prevails as temps are in the low-mid 70s. Some hi-res model guidance is suggesting some sunrise-surprise SHRA/TSRA developing mostly N of STL metro this morning for a few hours. The main bout of rain today, however, looks to be associated with a shortwave over eastern KS that will track east into our region, and should begin to generate new SHRA/TSRA by late morning and expand into much of the forecast area during the afternoon hours. Maintained likely PoPs for much of the CWA as a result. Temps will be tricky once again today, with high probs of rain and abundant clouds versus the very strong sun angle, warm airmass with a frontal boundary still upstream, and if a short period of sunshine can be realized will shoot temps up quickly. Stayed within the realm of MOS values but leaned warm. TES .LONG TERM: (Tonight through Sunday) Issued at 432 AM CDT Mon Jun 15 2015 Very little change from the prev forecast for today. Have continued relatively cool forecast thru Fri due to the ongoing precip threat. A cdfnt will approach the CWA today and is progd to become quasi-stationary across the middle of the CWA. This fnt will provide a focus for TSRA as numerous s/ws within the SW upper air flow. With a feature to focus precip on and the very saturated soil across much of the region, a flood headline will likely be needed over the next day or so. Main question will be area impacted and will let the day shift take another look at the latest guidance. Complicating this issue is the tropical disturbance currently in the Gulf. The GFS/ECMWF are in good agreement with this system progd in swrn MO by early Fri morning. However, stronger moisture advection nwd as the cdfnt approaches will likely lead to heavy rainfall in the late Tues into Wed time frame. With the GFS/ECMWF in better agreement for Fri, have increased PoPs Thurs into Fri. Have trended slightly cooler for temps on Tues due to ample cloud cover expected. However, enuf deep layer shear shud be available to support multicell clusters if enuf insolation can occur to destabilize. As has been the case the prev few days, a wind damage threat will be the primary focus for TSRA. Otherwise, once the remnants of the tropical system lift NE of the region, the area shud be setup for a quick warm up with SW flow and 850mb temps around 20C. However, this relatively dry and warm period appears to be short lived with the next cdfnt arriving sometime this weekend. Tilly && .AVIATION: (For the 18z TAFs through 18z Tuesday Afternoon) Issued at 1114 AM CDT Mon Jun 15 2015 Diurnal cumulus clouds will continue to develop this afternoon with a cloud ceiling around 3000-4000 feet. Isolated showers/storms have developed between COU and UIN and between UIN and STL late this morning. As the atmosphere continues to destabilize with daytime heating more showers and storms will develop this afternoon into the early evening hours, plus the area of showers/storms over southwest MO will move northeastward into our area this afternoon. A cold front extending from WI southwest through eastern KS will move southeastward into our area tonight. The front will move through UIN and stall out from near COU to STL on Tuesday. This front will be the focus for more showers and a few storms tonight. MVFR cloud heights are also possible along and behind this front tonight and Tuesday morning. The swly surface winds will become n-nely in UIN later this evening after fropa. Specifics for KSTL: Showers and storms will continue to develop this afternoon and become more numerous impacting STL through at least the early evening hours. More showers and a few storms may develop along and just ahead of a cold front later tonight which will drop southeastward towards STL. The front will stall out near STL on Tuesday with more storms Tuesday afternoon. GKS && .LSX WATCHES/WARNINGS/ADVISORIES: MO...NONE. IL...NONE. && WFO LSX
