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 La Crosse, WI wrote its last area forecast discussion before this river flood warning went out at Aug 24, 2:36 AM CDT, 2 hours 28 minutes earlier.

Area forecast discussion, Aug 24, 2:36 AM CDT, 2 hours 28 minutes before
Area Forecast Discussion
National Weather Service La Crosse WI
236 AM CDT WED AUG 24 2016

.SHORT TERM...(Today and Tonight)
Issued at 236 AM CDT Wed Aug 24 2016

Dealing with major flash flood scenario across northeast tier of
counties in Iowa early this morning with large swath of 4"+
rainfalls likely. Already issued some site specific river flood
warnings but amount of impact likely to be seen after daybreak
today.

Area is primed with bulls-eye of precipitable water near 2" and low
level jet impacting outflow boundary from nearly steady state
convection. To the south of convection steady low level inflow with
70+ surface dew points continues to advect into this east-west
orientated line of storms. Legacy rainfall estimates off radar are
underestimating rainfall while Dual Pol is just a bit high. Needless
to say, combination of watches and warnings are in effect.

Closed low continues to slowly move east across southern Canadian
prairies leaving western Great Lakes in southwest flow and favorable
jet dynamics for good updrafts/lift. Minor waves moving through this
flow spawned earlier convection, but low level moisture transport
starts to shift east gradually this morning so feeling is convection
will gradually end from west to east to follow suit.

Lower confidence on how later in the day will pan out with some
short term guidance suggesting another wave could advect northeast
in flow and work on slow moving frontal boundary. While rain threat
will shift east, continued small risks in south and southeast areas.

Cooler and drier air begins to shift in for tonight and push any
remaining rain threats off to the southeast.

.LONG TERM...(Thursday through Tuesday)
Issued at 236 AM CDT Wed Aug 24 2016

Medium range guidance suggests closed low opens up and moves east
along US and Canadian border for latter part of week. This will mean
quiet few days with short term upper ridge returning into Friday.
May see some early morning valley fog setup but did not have time to
work those details into the forecast database right now. Will have
to add these features as time permits.

Next wave enters the picture by Friday night with moisture transport
returning. This is a quick moving wave and threat of any severe
weather for Saturday time frame may not fall into place with limited
moisture return. Again, this will have to be watched for later
detail.

Early next week looking quiet behind wave.

&&

.AVIATION...(For the 06Z TAFS through 06Z Wednesday night)
Issued at 1231 AM CDT Wed Aug 24 2016

Showers and storms continue to work across the region but will
gradually fade the next few hours, allowing for lower stratus to
develop in their wake. For the moment, continue to expect ceilings
to lower to MVFR at LSE and likely IFR for RST, but confidence in
how long those lower ceilings stick around today remains low.
Should see quick improvement into the afternoon as a cold front
arrives and much drier air sweeps across the area.

&&

.HYDROLOGY...
Issued at 236 AM CDT Wed Aug 24 2016

Copious amounts of rain overnight have led to widespread and serious
flash flooding in far northeastern Iowa into southwest Wisconsin.
Rivers on the rise and site specific forecasts put together to get
some flood warnings out with as much lead time as we could.

Some locations could have moderate to major flooding very quickly
today with 5"+ rainfall totals still coming in. Warnings will
continue for much of the region for awhile this morning.

Forecasts from the River Forecast center will be made available as
soon as possible.
