The radar
The Springfield radar (KSGF), 79 km from the middle of the area, began a volume at 00:48 UTC, the scan nearest the moment this went out.
Open the radar archive at this moment
The archived warnings, watches and discussions in force at that minute are drawn over the scan, this one among them.
Did it verify
Not verified. The Iowa Environmental Mesonet's Cow found no qualifying storm report inside this flash flood warning while it was in force. That is not proof nothing happened: reports are thin where few people live.
Cow counts a report within 15 km of the polygon while the warning was in force: a tornado for a tornado warning; hail of 1 inch or more, a gust of 58 mph or more or wind damage for a severe thunderstorm warning; a flash flood report for a flash flood warning.
The nearest sounding before it
Norman, OK (KOUN), launched 00:00Z, 0.8 hours before the alert went out and 348 km from the middle of its area. This is the routine balloon launch nearest before it, the air the forecaster had in hand, not a measurement taken for the alert.

Area forecast discussion, Dec 26, 5:38 PM CST, 1 hour 9 minutes before
Area Forecast Discussion
National Weather Service SPRINGFIELD MO
538 PM CST SAT DEC 26 2015
.SYNOPSIS...
Issued at 225 PM CST SAT DEC 26 2015
Significant rainfall and flooding event is underway across the
forecast area. Scattered thunderstorms from this morning have
started to become more numerous across the area this afternoon and
have issued a couple of flash flood warnings already. All but one
of our river forecast points is slated for flooding with most
expecting major flooding. There is a low end chance of a few
severe storms this afternoon/evening over southern Missouri as a
surface front lifts north into the area, but will be dependent on
how much instability can develop. All modes of severe weather
would be possible if the storms can become severe. The heavy rain
and flooding will continue into Sunday and Sunday night with a
possibility of ending as light snow or flurries on Monday.
Flooding will likely continue into the first half of the upcoming
week given the amount of rainfall expected.
The main forecast focus will be trying to pinpoint the heaviest
rainfall amounts and axis over the next 48 hour period.
&&
.SHORT TERM...(This Evening through Sunday night)
Issued at 225 PM CST SAT DEC 26 2015
Confidence remains high in a very high impact heavy rain and
flooding event tonight into Sunday/Sunday night. A frontal
boundary will lift north into the area this afternoon and slowly
sink back to the south through the day on Sunday.
There remains a conditional risk of severe thunderstorms this
afternoon and evening over southern Missouri if enough instability
can develop as the front lifts into the area. All modes of severe
storms would be POSSIBLE if enough instability can develop.
Confidence in severe storms this afternoon and evening is low.
A strong upper low over Arizona this afternoon will remain
southwest of the area through Sunday with strong diffluent flow
over the area. The upper low and surface low will eventually track
over the area on Sunday night, but until that time, there will be
periods of heavy rainfall, intially with embedded thunderstorms,
especially on the warmer side of the front. Heaviest rainfall
amounts have shifted slightly to the northwest over the past
couple of days and is now along the I44 corridor. We are still
forecasting six to eight inches of ADDITIONAL rainfall along this
corridor beginning this evening on top of what we have already
received from last night into the day today. This will lead to
significant to record flooding in some instances across a large
portion of our forecast area.
.LONG TERM...(Monday through Saturday)
Issued at 225 PM CST SAT DEC 26 2015
The low will track through the area on Monday, drawing colder air
into the region with it, but taking the majority of any
measureable precipitation with it as well. May be cold enough to
generate some light snow in the far western portion of the CWA on
Monday, but with surface temperatures around or slightly above
freezing not expecting to measure more than a couple tenths of an
inch of snow at this point. The main story will remain with
ongoing flooding with the rainfall we are expecting tonight
through Sunday night. The flooding will likely continue into at
least the middle portion of the upcoming week.
Another quick moving shortwave from the southwest will track
across the western portion of the CWA Tuesday night into Wednesday
and may bring some flurries or light snow. Models are showing any
measurable precipitation occurring northwest of our CWA.
Confidence in having any measurable snow with this secondary
system is low.
Precipitation chances for the remainder of the period will then
diminish as we get into a more northwest flow pattern aloft at
least through the remainder of the workweek. Temperatures are
expected to be more seasonal for this time of year.
&&
.AVIATION...(For the 00Z TAFS through 00Z Sunday Evening)
Issued at 0532 PM CST SAT DEC 26 2015
The front stalled along the I-44 corridor will continue to focus
widespread rainfall with embedded thunderstorms through much of
tonight and Sunday. This will cause ceilings to fluctuate between
IFR and lower MVFR through at least tonight. For most of Sunday
will keep ceilings mainly IFR.
Wind direction will be a little tricky at Branson where southeast
winds persists through at least the first six hours of the
forecast. For now will veer winds around to northwest around 08z
but will need to monitor wind shift trends closely.
