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 Topeka, KS wrote its last area forecast discussion before this river flood warning went out at May 11, 6:26 AM CDT, 3 hours 35 minutes earlier.

Area forecast discussion, May 11, 6:26 AM CDT, 3 hours 35 minutes before

AREA FORECAST DISCUSSION
National Weather Service Topeka KS
626 AM CDT WED MAY 11 2016

...Update to aviation forecast discussion...

.SHORT TERM...(Today and Tonight)
Issued at 239 AM CDT WED MAY 11 2016

Will be brief as storms progged to develop over next hour or so over
the area, with stronger focus along and north of I70. Threat
continues to be large hail and wind, with plume of instability
working its way northward into the area at this time.  Higher
resolution models indicate a convective system developing and moving
to the northeast, with much of the activity east of our area by
around the noon hour as the main front pushes through.  Highs should
still reach into the 70s with lows in the upper 40s to low 50s.

.LONG TERM...(Thursday through Tuesday)
Issued at 239 AM CDT WED MAY 11 2016

Beginning of the period starts with surface high pressure moving
into Kansas by early afternoon Thursday keeping conditions dry and
skies mostly clear.  This high pressure moves southeast late
Thursday night as a surface low and embedded weak shortwave in the
upper level flow move across northeast Kansas Friday afternoon into
Friday night.  With models showing over 1200 J/kg of CAPE and decent
shear across the area Friday, thunderstorms will be possible during
this time period.  Saturday through Wednesday, chances for
precipitation persist in the forecast. While the GFS and ECMWF
still have significant differences in the extended, the best
chance for precipitation looks to be Monday and Monday night
associated with a shortwave moving across the southern stream
flow. Instability looks to be minimal through the end of the
period, therefore have kept either showers or showers with
isolated thunder.

&&

.AVIATION...(For the 12Z TAFS through 12Z Thursday Morning)
Issued at 625 AM CDT WED MAY 11 2016

Line of storms east of the taf sites by issuance. Will have a few
hours of lower cigs before they rise through the day and
eventually scatter out.  Northwesterly winds through the period.
