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 North Platte, NE wrote its last area forecast discussion before this river flood warning went out at Oct 4, 12:03 AM CDT, 2 hours 13 minutes earlier.

Area forecast discussion, Oct 4, 12:03 AM CDT, 2 hours 13 minutes before
Area Forecast Discussion
National Weather Service North Platte NE
1203 AM CDT Tue Oct 4 2016

.SYNOPSIS...
Issued at 323 PM CDT Mon Oct 3 2016

An active H5 continues across the CONUS this morning.
Strong shortwaves were noted over western New York state, the
Mississippi Delta region, and north central Nevada. Ht. falls of 50
to 150 meters were noted over the intermountain west with the
greatest falls over Utah, western Colorado and western Wyoming. A
nice 70-90 KT jet streak extended from northern California into
southern Nevada. East of the main shortwave over northern Nevada, a
secondary shortwave was noted near the four corners. Upstream of the
Nevada shortwave, another shortwave was located off the coast of
British Columbia. Current WV imagery now has the Nevada shortwave
in northern Utah, with the four corners shortwave now over south
central Colorado. At the surface, strong low pressure was located
over southeastern Montana and north central Colorado. A surface
trough of low pressure extended from the southeastern Montana low
into southeastern Colorado. A cold front extended to the southwest
of the Montana low into southwestern Wyoming, while a warm front
extended northeast into central North Dakota. Strong southerly winds
were present across western and north central Nebraska this
afternoon and winds were gusting in the 35 to 45 MPH range. Skies
were partly to mostly cloudy and readings were in the upper 70s to
lower 80s.

&&

.SHORT TERM...(This evening through Tuesday)
Issued at 323 PM CDT Mon Oct 3 2016

Focus is strong southerly winds and ending fire weather concerns
late this afternoon along with severe weather potential which
lingers overnight.

Convection already firing across the western panhandle of Nebraska
and as the short wave pushes east this evening and overnight, expect
storms chances to continue. Afternoon clearing across western Neb.
has allowed for some destabilization of the atmosphere. Cape values
have increased to 1000 to 2000 J/KG with 40 to 50 kts of 0 to 6 km
shear. Corridor of greatest concern is across the western Sandhills
this evening with less of a threat as cooler temps occur in the BL
overnight and the storms push east. Severe thunderstorm watch
already out and will continue to monitor for possibly expansion to
the east later. Ahead of the wave this evening will be strong
south/southeasterly winds, locally gusting to 50 mph.

Finally is the fire weather concerns across far SW Neb, see fire
weather discussion for more information as it only is in effect a
few more hours.

Change in the air for tomorrow behind the cold front. Highs in the
upper 60s to lower 70s and outside of a few linger showers across
far eastern zones, dry conditions. Winds will also be west at 10 to
20 mph.

.LONG TERM...(Tuesday night through Monday)
Issued at 323 PM CDT Mon Oct 3 2016

Tuesday night through Thursday...In the mid range, the
threat for precipitation Late Wednesday night into Thursday is the
main forecast challenge. The threat for precipitation will come to
an end across eastern sections of the forecast area by Tuesday
afternoon as the upper level low lifts into northern North Dakota.
This will place the forecast area in decent subsidence Tuesday night
into Wednesday morning. Weak high pressure will build into the
forecast area Tuesday night with clear skies and drier air.
Overnight lows will reach the mid to upper 30s with some lower 30s
in the western sandhills and northwestern Nebraska. This may
facilitate the need for a frost advisory in the west for Tuesday
night. Right now, there is some discrepancies between the MAV and
MET guidance with respect to lows Tuesday night. The MAV is running
5 degrees warmer compared to the MET guidance for North Platte. The
MET and NAM12 is quite a bit drier in the boundary layer and this
could be influenced by the amount of pcpn we receive in the next 12
hours. That being said, would like to see how much the low level RH
field is impacted by coverage of pcpn before inserting any mention
of frost or issuing headlines for such. We have time to analyze this
over the next 12 to 24 hrs and make a decision then. That being
said, have not lowered min temps toward the cooler MET guidance just
yet but compromised between the MET, MAV and the inherited grids. By
Wednesday afternoon, a second shortwave, currently off the coast of
British Columbia will track into the intermountain west. Downstream
of this approaching wave, mid level frontogenesis will begin to
increase late Wednesday into Thursday. Strong lift along this fronto
band will lead to precipitation late Wednesday night into Thursday.
The models have shifted the best lift slightly further north with
this mornings runs with the best chances for rain existing from the
southern panhandle into north central Nebraska. The latest model
solutions including the NAM12, ECMWF and Canadian are too warm for
snow formation, while the GFS is cooler and develops snow in the
northwestern CWA late Wednesday night/early Thursday morning. Per
cross sections taken across the fronto band, the strongest lift is
not within the dendritic growth zone in the GFS solution, so we are
not expecting snowfall rates high enough to have it reach the
ground. That is if the GFS verifies, and right now it is the outlier
compared to the EC, NAM12 and Canadian solutions. With this in mind,
decided to keep all precipitation mention as liquid for now.

Thursday night through Monday...A benign dry pattern will set in
behind the exiting disturbance. Cold temperatures with lows in the
upper 20s are likely Friday morning with a hard freeze possible in
the western forecast area. Will continue to hit this hard in the HWO
as this will likely be the end to the growing season. After highs in
the 60s Friday, highs will climb back to around 70 Saturday, then
the middle 70s for Sunday and Monday. Dry conditions are expected
through the period as low amplitude flow aloft will develop across
the central CONUS this weekend into early next week.

&&

.AVIATION...(For the 06Z TAFS through 06Z Tuesday night)
Issued at 1150 PM CDT Mon Oct 3 2016

Unorganized thunderstorms and showers across portions of north
central NE and limited portions of western NE. Main concern is
moderate to heavy rains limiting visibilities below VFR flight
category.

Westerly-northwesterly winds and drier air will take hold as a
surface cold front advances east across the rest of the forecast
area tonight. The front has advanced through much of the forecast
area at the present time. Once precipitation diminishes, high
clouds are then expected to then linger the rest of tonight
through early in the morning. VFR conditions then expected to
prevail. Westerly winds between 10-15 kts expected tomorrow
afternoon.

&&

.FIRE WEATHER...
Issued at 323 PM CDT Mon Oct 3 2016

The dry line has not made it into far western Nebraska yet however
it will likely push into the region in the next few of hours,
towards the tail end of the red flag warning. No change to the
warning as there continues to be very strong winds across the region
and this area is seeing the lower rh values, and am expecting them
to continue to lower. They are likely to only fall into the 20s
percent, however with the strong winds and dry fuels it will not
take much for fire to spread quickly. Tomorrow will see more cooler
and drier conditions across the region. More widespread RH values in
the 20 to 30 percent range, however westerly winds will remain less
than 20 mph. Another dry day is low minimum RH values then precip
chances return.
