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 Wichita, KS wrote its last area forecast discussion before this river flood warning went out at May 26, 11:31 PM CDT, 2 hours 40 minutes earlier.

Area forecast discussion, May 26, 11:31 PM CDT, 2 hours 40 minutes before
Area Forecast Discussion
National Weather Service Wichita KS
1131 PM CDT THU MAY 26 2016

.SHORT TERM...(This evening through Friday)
Issued at 221 PM CDT Thu May 26 2016

Elevated storms quickly developed early this afternoon in an area
of strong 850-700mb moisture transport. Around nearly the same
time surface based storms developed west of our forecast area on
the more traditional dryline. Large scale lift provided by
approaching shortwave is allowing for much more widespread
convection compared to the last couple of days.

With extreme instability, any storm that goes up will have a good
chance of producing very large hail. Surface flow today is
stronger than last couple of days along with deep layer shear
being more robust. Therefore, any surfaced based storm this
afternoon or evening will have a chance to produce a tornado with
a enhanced risk closer to the warm front/outflow, where winds will
be slightly more backed, resulting in strong low level shear.
Through 2pm, tornado threat is being mitigated by storms
interfering with each other. Going to need a storm to be more
isolated to get a longer lived tor this afternoon/evening.

Also ran with a flash flood watch through Fri afternoon with
several rounds of storms expected and grounds already saturated.
Should also see rivers continue to flood along with additional
rivers going into flood.

As the overnight hours progresses the more widespread convection
should push east and northeast on the better 850-700mb moisture.
Storms still look like a good bet for Fri as the upper wave takes
its time lifting across KS. What is left of the dryline looks to
still linger along the SW fringes of the forecast area by Fri
afternoon and may provide a focus. In addition, large scale lift
will be much better than the last few days which may allow storms
to more freely develop in the very unstable airmass. Severe storms
will be possible with any storms that develop Fri.

.LONG TERM...(Saturday through Thursday)
Issued at 221 PM CDT Thu May 26 2016

By 18z Sat, the upper wave will be lifting over northeast KS
which will push the better convective chances north and east of
the forecast area. Still not out of the question to get some
storms to develop late Sat night across the southern and southwest
portions of the forecast area as the better 850mb moisture starts
to roll back to the northeast. Confidence in rain chances starting
Sun is very low as we get broad sw flow aloft. While both GFS and
ECMWF agree on a northern stream shortwave tracking across the
northern Plains, they disagree on the timing, with the ECMWF
faster compared to the GFS which leads to low confidence. There is
still some suggestion that a weak impulse will track across
OK/southern KS Mon into Mon evening which may result in some
elevated rain chances.

&&

.AVIATION...(For the 06Z TAFS through 06Z Friday night)
Issued at 1123 PM CDT Thu May 26 2016

Main Aviation Hazards: Stratus potential late tonight/early
Friday, and thunderstorms tonight and Friday afternoon/night.

Quasi-linear thunderstorm complex extending from northeast KS
through south-central KS...moving eastward at 30-35 mph as of
0425Z. This line should reach the CNU terminal between 0700Z-
0830Z given present movement. Will carry TEMPO +TSRA with strong
wind gusts at CNU for this line. Post-QLCS lightning strikes and
gusty outflow winds will continue for about an hour or two behind
this line, affecting the ICT and SLN terminals.

Otherwise, a very moist east-southeasterly boundary layer flow
aided by recent widespread heavy rainfall, should lead to low
stratus development across most of the area Friday morning. The
stratus should gradually lift and scatter out around midday. More
chances for thunderstorms will occur later Friday
afternoon/evening, as an upper trough lifts slowly out over Kansas
from the west.
