$$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 Pueblo, CO wrote its last area forecast discussion before this river flood warning went out at May 21, 4:09 AM MDT, 6 hours 13 minutes earlier.
Area forecast discussion, May 21, 4:09 AM MDT, 6 hours 13 minutes before
AREA FORECAST DISCUSSION NATIONAL WEATHER SERVICE PUEBLO CO 409 AM MDT THU MAY 21 2015 .SHORT TERM...(TODAY AND TONIGHT) ISSUED AT 343 AM MDT THU MAY 21 2015 ...ANOTHER ROUND OF RAIN/HI MTNS SNOWS THIS EVENING BUT IT SHOULD BE A RELATIVELY QUICK SHOT... CURRENTLY.... LOTS OF CLOUDS...FOG...AND DRIZZLE ACROSS THE EASTERN PLAINS THIS MORNING...WHILE OVER THE HIGHER TRRN CLOUDS WERE INCREASING IN ADVANCE OF THE NEXT SYSTEM THAT WILL MOVE OVER THE REGION LATER THIS AFTERNOON AND EVENING. TEMPS AT 3 AM WERE QUITE COOL WITH 30S AND 40S PLAINS AND VALLEYS...AND 20S AND 30S MTNS. THIS MORNING... FOG...DRIZZLE AND LOW CLOUDS WILL CONTINUE OVER THE PLAINS UNTIL MID MORNING...WITH FOG AND DRZL DISSIPATING LATER THIS MORNING. IT WILL REMAIN OVERCAST. OVER THE HIGHER TRRN CLOUDS WILL CONTINUE TO INCREASE. NO SIGNIFICANT PRECIP IS EXPECTED PRIOR TO 18Z OVER THE FCST AREA. THIS AFTERNOON... PRECIP WILL RAMP UP ACROSS THE MTNS BY EARLY AFTERNOON...AND WILL ADVANCE EASTWARD AS THE AFTERNOON PROGRESSES. PRECIP SHOULD REACH THE I-25 CORRIDOR BY LATE AFTERNOON. GUIDANCE THIS MORNING IS SHOWING THE BRUNT OF THE PRECIP IS LIKELY TO FALL OVER THE C MTN AREA LATER THIS AFTERNOON AND EVENING. AFTER COORD WITH GJT AND BOU...HAVE ISSUED A WINTER WX HILITE FOR 4-8" SNOW ACROSS THE HIGHER ELEVATIONS OF THE C MTNS. MAX TEMPS TODAY SHOULD REACH IN THE 55-60F RANGE ACROSS THE PLAINS. SIMILAR TO YDAY...SAN LUIS VALLEY SHOULD BE THE WARMEST LOCATION WITH HIGHS IN THE M60S. TONIGHT... MODELS HAVE BACKED OFF ANY PERSISTENT HEAVY RAIN FOR THE PLAINS. IT APPEARS THE HEAVIEST RAIN WILL FALL OVER THE FAR EASTERN PLAINS WHERE 0.25-0.50" OF RAIN WILL BE POSSIBLE. EL PASO COUNTY MAY ALSO SEE SOME HEAVIER AMOUNTS...ALTHOUGH THE BRUNT OF IT SHOULD BE NORTH IN NWS BOU'S CWA. QUITE A BIT OF THE PLAINS MAY NOT SEE MUCH ADDITIONAL PRECIP TONIGHT...MOSTLY BELOW 0.10". IT IS NOT OUT THE QUESTION THAT SOME OF THE PLAINS MAY NOT SEE ANY SIGNIFICANT PRECIP THIS EVENING INTO TONIGHT. HEAVIER PRECIP SHOULD FALL OVER THE C MTN/VALLEY REGION THIS EVENING...DECREASING LATER TONIGHT. DO NOT EXPECT TO SEE ANY WIDESPREAD FOG TONIGHT OVER THE PLAINS WITH THE SYSTEM MOVING THROUGH. \/HODANISH .LONG TERM...(FRIDAY THROUGH WEDNESDAY) ISSUED AT 343 AM MDT THU MAY 21 2015 ACTIVE WEATHER WILL CONTINUE THROUGH THE EXTENDED WITH SOME UNCERTAINTY EARLY NEXT WEEK. FRIDAY AND SATURDAY...AN UPPER LEVEL DISTURBANCE OVER COLORADO FRIDAY MORNING WILL LIFT NORTHEAST INTO THE NORTHERN PLAINS BY FRIDAY AFTERNOON...WHILE AN UPPER LEVEL LOW MOVES OUT OF SOUTHERN CALIFORNIA INTO THE DESERT SOUTHWEST. EXPECT SHOWERS AND ISOLATED THUNDERSTORMS TO BE ONGOING FRIDAY MORNING ACROSS MUCH OF THE AREA...WITH IT COMING TO AN END BY MID DAY AS THE UPPER DISTURBANCE MOVES AWAY. MODELS IN GOOD AGREEMENT WITH DRY AIR FILLING IN BEHIND THE DISTURBANCE WITH A DRYLINE DEVELOPING FRIDAY AFTERNOON ACROSS THE EASTERN COLORADO PLAINS. MODELS ARE GENERATING CONVECTION ALONG THE DRYLINE...HOWEVER LACK OF INSTABILITY WILL LIKELY LIMIT HOW STRONG THUNDERSTORMS BECOME. FOR NOW THINK THE MAIN THREATS OUT NEAR THE KANSAS BORDER WILL BE DIME SIZE HAIL AND LIGHTNING. SHOWERS WILL BE CONTINUE OVER THE MOUNTAINS WITH HIGH SNOW LEVELS...WITH A COUPLE OF INCHES OF ACCUMULATION ABOVE 10 KFT. EXPECT SHOWERS AND THUNDERSTORMS ALONG THE DRYLINE TO SHIFT EAST FRIDAY EVENING...WHILE SHOWERS CONTINUE OVER THE MOUNTAINS FRIDAY NIGHT. BY SATURDAY...THE MAIN UPPER LEVEL LOW WILL MOVE OUT OF THE DESERT SOUTHWEST INTO UTAH AND WESTERN COLORADO WITH AN UPPER DISTURBANCE EJECTING ACROSS COLORADO. MODELS ONCE AGAIN DEVELOPING A DRYLINE ACROSS EASTERN COLORADO SATURDAY AFTERNOON. EXPECT AFTERNOON HEATING WILL BE SUFFICIENT ENOUGH TO GENERATE STRONGER INSTABILITY OUT NEAR THE KANSAS BORDER WHERE AROUND 1500 J/KG OF CAPE WILL BE PRESENT. STRONG SHEAR AND THE INSTABILITY WILL LIKELY ALLOW A FEW STORMS TO BECOME STRONG TO SEVERE SATURDAY AFTERNOON NEAR THE KANSAS BORDER. THE MAIN QUESTION WILL REMAIN HOW FAR EAST OR WEST THE DRYLINE SETS UP. THERE COULD ALSO BE A LIMITED STRONG TO SEVERE THREAT FOR THUNDERSTORMS NORTH OF THE SURFACE LOW OVER THE PALMER DIVIDE. THIS WILL NEED TO BE MONITORED. SHOWERS WILL CONTINUE ACROSS THE MOUNTAINS WITH HIGH SNOW LEVELS AND MINOR ACCUMULATIONS. SUNDAY THROUGH WEDNESDAY...PERSISTENT TROUGHING AND DISTURBANCES WILL CONTINUE TO IMPACT THE REGION. TIMING AND STRENGTH OF INDIVIDUAL FEATURES ARE STILL UNCLEAR...BUT THE AREA WILL CONTINUE TO SEE ACTIVE WEATHER THROUGH THE MIDDLE OF NEXT WEEK. SUNDAY MAY BE THE WETTEST DAY ACROSS THE REGION. A COLD FRONT WILL COMBINE WITH AN UPPER DISTURBANCE TO PRODUCE WIDESPREAD PRECIPITATION ACROSS THE AREA. CONTINUED SHOWER ACTIVITY WILL CONTINUE MONDAY THROUGH WEDNESDAY...WITH COVERAGE AND INTENSITY IN QUESTION. ONE THING TO REMEMBER...THE GROUND IS SATURATED AND RIVERS/STREAMS ARE RUNNING HIGH. ANY ADDITIONAL RAINFALL WILL LIKELY LEAD TO ADDITIONAL FLASH FLOOD POTENTIAL AND RIVER FLOODING. IF SHOWERS CAN BECOME HEAVY ENOUGH ANY TIME DURING THE EXTENDED PERIOD...THE FLOOD RISK WILL BE HIGH...TURN AROUND...DON'T DROWN.

WITH MIXING ASSOCIATED WITH NEXT DISTURBANCE APPROACHING THE AREA LATER TODAY...CIGS SHOULD RISE A BIT AND MVFR/VFR CIGS WILL BE POSSIBLE THIS AFTERNOON. RAIN SHOULD ONCE AGAIN MOVE INTO KCOS LATER THIS AFTERNOON AND EVENING...WITH SHOWERS OVER KPUB. LOW CIGS WILL ONCE AGAIN MOVE IN LATER TONIGHT. KALS... VFR THOUGH LATE AFTERNOON.
