$$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 Springfield, MO wrote its last area forecast discussion before this river flood warning went out at Dec 13, 11:50 PM CST, 1 hour 41 minutes earlier.
Area forecast discussion, Dec 13, 11:50 PM CST, 1 hour 41 minutes before
Area Forecast Discussion National Weather Service SPRINGFIELD MO 1150 PM CST SUN DEC 13 2015 .SHORT TERM...(This Evening through Monday) Issued at 208 PM CST SUN DEC 13 2015 Rainy day across the region as a large upper level storm system slowly ejects to the northeast. Models have trended a few hours slower with the speed of this system, and higher PoPs will need to be held on longer across the Missouri Ozarks this evening. Once the dry slot punches into the region, rainfall will transition to patchy drizzle/scattered light showers, which will linger for the remainder tonight into Monday morning. Lows tonight will eventually fall into the low/mid 40s by daybreak. Storm total rainfall of 1-3" with this system still looks reasonable given what has been observed so far and expected rainfall totals from the near term guidance through tonight. Locally higher amounts are possible near the four states region. The going flood watch continues to handle the situation well and should be allowed to expire on time. Clouds will persist much of the day Monday, which will keep temperatures in check. Clearing from southwest to northeast is expected during the afternoon, amassing enough heating/mixing to get temperatures a few degrees either side of the 50 degree mark across the area. .LONG TERM...(Monday Night through Sunday) Issued at 208 PM CST SUN DEC 13 2015 Mainly quiet weather is expected for the remainder of the forecast. A quick moving upper level disturbance will pass through the area late Tuesday into Wednesday morning, which will usher a cooler airmass into the region. By no means anything unusual, as highs return to the 40s and low return to the 20s and 30s. Little if any rainfall is expected this week. A moderating trend is expected heading into next weekend. && .AVIATION...(For the 06Z TAFS through 06Z Monday Night) Issued at 1145 PM CST SUN DEC 13 2015 An upper level low pressure system will slowly move through the region overnight and into Monday. Scattered light rain showers and pockets of drizzle will continue. Conditions will primarily start off in the VFR category with areas of MVFR scattered about. MVFR will then become the prevailing flight category as sunrise approaches...with MVFR continuing for much of Monday. Skies are finally expected to clear around sunset. Meanwhile, brisk and gusty southwest winds will continue overnight and into Monday morning. Gusts over 25 knots are expected. Winds will begin to diminish Monday afternoon. && .SGF Watches/Warnings/Advisories... MO...NONE. KS...NONE. && SHORT TERM...Gagan LONG TERM...Gagan AVIATION...Schaumann
