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 Jul 7, 6:42 AM CDT, 4 hours 55 minutes earlier.

Area forecast discussion, Jul 7, 6:42 AM CDT, 4 hours 55 minutes before
AREA FORECAST DISCUSSION
NATIONAL WEATHER SERVICE SPRINGFIELD MO
642 AM CDT Tue Jul 7 2015

...12z Aviation Update...

.SHORT TERM...(Today and Tonight)
Issued at 335 AM CDT TUE JUL 7 2015

A rather messy mesoscale setup across the region this morning. A
surface boundary is currently making its way across the Ozark
Plateau, though wind shifts at 925mb and 850mb lag this surface
wind shift substantially. As a result, convection is festering in
multiple bands of narrow convergence across the region. This setup
will continue through much of the day, resulting in on again off
again showers and embedded storms. Clouds and intermittent rain
will result in a tricky temperature forecast with most locations
staying in the 70s. While widespread heavy rainfall is not
expected today, there will be spots of locally heavy rain where
cell training occurs.

The 850mb front looks to set up right along the I-44 corridor
tonight into Wednesday, and a wave moving northeast out of the
southern Plains will ride this boundary. This round of rain will
be of high interest given a very moist airmass in place. With
precipitable water values in excess of 2 inches, large warm cloud
depths (reaching to between 15 to 20 kft) and long/skinny CAPE
profiles on the order of hundreds of J/kg strongly point to
widespread heavy rainfall production.

Two questions remain at this point, how quickly rainfall starts
and the exact location of the heavy rainfall band. As far as onset
is concerned, the global models are more progressive with the
shortwave tonight, with heavy rain entering from the southwest
late this evening. Mesoscale models (e.g. NAM/WRF/ARW) are 6 or so
hours slower. Regardless of solution, all produce rainfall totals
in excess of 2-3". As for the exact location of the heaviest band
of rain, the along/just northwest of the plateau looks to be the
sweet spot right now, though ultimately the corridor of heavy rain
will remain a mesoscale forecast challenge.

.LONG TERM...(Wednesday through Monday)
Issued at 335 AM CDT TUE JUL 7 2015

Heavy rain will move from southwest to northeast across a bulk of
the forecast area during the day Wednesday. The going flash flood
watch handles the at risk areas very well and no changes will be
made in space or time. 2-3" with localized amounts to 5" look good
storm total wise through Wednesday evening.

Wednesday night into Thursday night, we will need to track the
location of a resultant warm front that will be lingering nearby.
This will provide focus for additional shower and thunderstorm
chances. Confidence in just where the best chances are is
dependent on how things evolve over the next 36 hours. It is
plausible an extension to the flash flood watch will be needed if
the warm front loiters over the area.

Given rather meager instability progged for the next few days. The
risk for severe is minimal.

From Friday into early next week, upper level ridging will build
over the area, shunting rain chances to our north and northeast
and bringing a return to very warm and humid conditions. Highs
will reach into the upper 80s to low 90s (perhaps a few degrees
warmer). Heat index values around 100 degrees are plausible.

&&

.AVIATION...(For the 12Z TAFS through 12Z Wednesday Morning)
Issued at 642 AM CDT TUE JUL 7 2015

Showers will be possible throughout the period over all
terminals. MVFR and at times IFR conditions are likely through
the period, especially with heavier showers that develop.
Highlighted vicinity thunder this morning, however, it is very
possible that additional thunder may need to be added later. Low
level shear is winding down this AM, but shear is an additional
variable to watch toward the end of the period.
