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 16, 6:28 PM CDT, 1 hour 39 minutes earlier.
Area forecast discussion, Jun 16, 6:28 PM CDT, 1 hour 39 minutes before
AREA FORECAST DISCUSSION...UPDATED AVIATION
NATIONAL WEATHER SERVICE ST LOUIS MO
628 PM CDT Tue Jun 16 2015
.SHORT TERM: (Through Late Tonight)
Issued at 330 PM CDT Tue Jun 16 2015
The warm and moisture rich air mass poised along and south of the front
has responded to diurnal heating with SBCAPES of 2000-3000 J/KG throughout
the warm sector, supporting the development of scattered to numerous
showers and thundrstorms. The 12z KSGF raob shows the moisture continuing
to deepen and increase with PW now at 2.01 inches with a tall skinny
CAPE profile, characteristics favorable for very efficient rainfall
production and high rainfall rates which has been observed with
some of the current storms. The models show the boundary lifting
northward tonight but I'm not all convinced of that solution given
the high pressure to our north across the upper MS Valley. Regardless,
several weak disturbances will track within the southwest flow
aloft across the region and that combined with a broad region of
lift and moisture convergence associated with the anticyclonically
curved and veering southwesterly LLJ will continue to support
waves of showers and thunderstorms tonight across mainly the
southern half of the CWA.
Glass
.LONG TERM: (Wednesday through Next Tuesday)
Issued at 330 PM CDT Tue Jun 16 2015
Continued waves of showers and thunderstorms across the southern
half of the CWA and the remnants of TS Bill are expected through
the end of the week with potential for serious flooding, both flash
flooding on small creeks and streams and potential for major flood
levels of some of the larger rivers.
The overall situation has changed little leading to increasing
confidence. Still unknown will be the exact path of the remnant
tropical low. From Wednesday into Thursday a parade of disturbances
will track E/NE across the southern half of the CWA within the
southwest flow aloft on the periphery of the upper high in the
southeastern U.S.. At the same time the south-southwesterly LLJ
will modulate periodically veering and strengthening, focusing a
broad region of lift across the southern half of the CWA. The
combo of the these features will result in continued waves of
showers and thunderstorms with the high moisture content supporting
high rainfall rates and heavy rainfall totals. The models are also
suggestive of an arcing convergent zone across southern MO
emanating from the remnant low in the Thursday night-Friday time
frame which could further enhance the rainfall potential. The
current NHC official forecast has the low moving across south-
central and southeast MO into southern IL Friday into Friday
evening which appears to be in the center of the guidance suite.
It appears by Saturday morning the remnant low will have passed to
our east with drier weather expected until another cold front
enters the area late Saturday night into Sunday. Still thinking we
will see a swath of rainfall averaging 5-7 inches over the next 5
days centered near a Rolla-Waterloo-Salem axis, with the highest
rainfall period centered in the Thursday night-Friday time frame.
Local rainfall totals could be quite a bit higher. Have expanded
the Flash Flood Watch until 7 pm Friday evening as a result of
this anticipated scenario.

.AVIATION: (For the 00z TAFs through 00z Wednesday Evening)
Issued at 623 PM CDT Tue Jun 16 2015
Periods of rain and embedded thunderstorms will continue overnight
as stalled front begins to slowly lift north. Expect MVFR and
occasionally IFR conditions. Rain should diminish tomorrow morning
before refiring with heat of the day tomorrow.
Specifics for KSTL:
Rain will continue much of the night with some embedded
thunderstorms. Expect MVFR to IFR conditions all night before the
rain diminishes tomorrow morning. Thunderstorms will redevelop
tomorrow afternoon.
