$$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 Jul 2, 6:42 AM CDT, 3 hours 52 minutes earlier.
Area forecast discussion, Jul 2, 6:42 AM CDT, 3 hours 52 minutes before
Area Forecast Discussion National Weather Service Wichita KS 642 AM CDT SAT JUL 2 2016 .SHORT TERM...(Today through Monday night) Issued at 311 AM CDT Sat Jul 2 2016 Ongoing mcs cluster with torrential rainfall rates will continue to propagate eastward at 30 mph across south central and southeast Kansas early this morning. This mcs complex is feeding on strong moisture transport via a 45 knot southerly low-level jet. A precipitable water axis of 1.75 to 2 inches is oriented along and downstream of this mcs, thus very heavy rainfall rates and localized flooding or flash flooding will be possible until it exits the region to the east-northeast later this morning. Will expand Flash Flood Watch southward 1 more row of counties. By midday today, the nam and gfs indicate the a surface low over northwestern Kansas, with a warm front draped southeast from the low across central into southeast Kansas. A lee trough axis will extend southwest of the low into southwestern Kansas. High temperatures will be very uncertain depending on how far north the actual warm front makes it, and effects of outflow from this mcs. Will show a contrast of lower 80s near the warm front, to the mid 90s near the Oklahoma border. A shortwave trough will eject eastward out of Colorado across Kansas late this afternoon into Sunday. Surface convergence along the aforementioned surface low, warm front, and surface trough axis and enhanced upper ascent from the approaching wave, should allow strong thunderstorms to redevelop mid-late afternoon. As the wave continues to traverse slowly eastward tonight, another nocturnal moderately strong, southerly low-level jet will develop, allowing storms over northern/western Kansas to expand in coverage into a potentially large storm complex...which will have a slow east- southeastward propagation through the forecast area. Storm training with intense, potentially excessive hourly rainfall rates, will be possible with a slowly veering low-level jet becoming more aligned with the southward advancing cold front. It is possible that the Flash Flood Watch will be modified by later shifts if the focus area shifts from current expectations but otherwise, will maintain the Flash Flood Watch through 12z Sunday for now. High chances for thunderstorms will linger in southeastern Kansas Sunday into Sunday night, as the slow-moving cold front interacts with an anomalously moist, unstable airmass. Locally heavy rainfall could accompany these storms. Cooler than normal air will begin infiltrating the forecast area Sunday into Monday behind the front. The forecast outlook for Monday evening is presently dry with relatively light southeasterly winds of 5 to 10 mph. .LONG TERM...(Tuesday through Friday) Issued at 311 AM CDT Sat Jul 2 2016 Broad, flat mid-upper ridging will prevail across the southern tier states, with a belt of mid-upper level westerlies across the northern tier states. 850-700 mb temperatures are progged to climb toward mid-late week over Kansas, which will lead to above normal temperatures for the forecast area. Any rain chances are very slight (15-20%) perhaps Tuesday and again toward the end of the week. && .AVIATION...(For the 12Z TAFS through 12Z Sunday morning) Issued at 637 AM CDT Sat Jul 2 2016 Precipitation will diminish from west to east this morning with a return to VFR across the area. Breezy southerly winds will usher in mild temperatures but the break in precipitation will be short-lived with storms expected to redevelop after 2-3 pm as the airmass remains weakly capped. Flight categories will likely be reduced to MVFR with transient IFR under the heavier showers this afternoon and evening. Locally heavy rain may may drive visibilities to around 1 mile at times this evening and tonight as another large complex of storms is expected to impact Central and South Central KS. && .PRELIMINARY POINT TEMPS/POPS...
