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 27, 12:19 PM CDT, 2 hours 15 minutes earlier.
Area forecast discussion, May 27, 12:19 PM CDT, 2 hours 15 minutes before
AREA FORECAST DISCUSSION National Weather Service Topeka KS 1219 PM CDT FRI MAY 27 2016 ...Update to aviation forecast discussion... .SHORT TERM...(Today and Tonight) Issued at 344 AM CDT FRI MAY 27 2016 08Z water vapor imagery shows a closed low over eastern CO with a shortwave rotating through the base of the low. Meanwhile at the surface, a low pressure system was analyzed over west TX with southerly low level flow persisting over the southern plains helping to maintain a moist airmass over the forecast area. The forecast for today and tonight is for more thunderstorms to develop. Models seem to think that a weak impulse, possible an MCV from the convection over north TX, could lift across eastern KS and cause storms to initiate by the early afternoon. Then the models show the upper low moving east with a negatively tilted shortwave lifting over the area this evening and overnight. With decent moisture and cooling mid level temps, models show moderate instability developing by the early afternoon with CAPE values around 2000 J/kg and not much in the way of inhibition to convection. But 0-6km shear remains somewhat marginal and storm mode may be multi cells once again. The overall severe weather risk will depend on how much we heat up and so the most likely timing for severe storms will probably be during the afternoon with the initial storms. After that, overturning of the airmass may limit severe potential during the overnight hours. The greatest hazard appears to be continued flooding for additional heavy rainfall today. With many rivers already flooding or forecast to flood, will extend the flash flood watch through tonight. Have likely POPs going for the afternoon and evening with the main uncertainty in the extent of the thunderstorms. Temps May struggle to get into the upper 70s due to cloud cover. Lows tonight are expected to be in the mid 50s and around 60 due in part from rain cooled air. .LONG TERM...(Saturday through Thursday) Issued at 344 AM CDT FRI MAY 27 2016 Within the warm and moist airmass still in place, the upper trough axis slowly lifts to the northeast through the day on Saturday. Instability at the sfc once again increases from 2 to 4000 J/KG of surface based CAPE area wide, however highest over east central Kansas where dewpoints in the mid to upper 60s are likely. Given that skies will clear out for a good portion of the afternoon, could still see some scattered storms develop in the afternoon and evening. These storms will be on the marginally severe side given the effective shear parameters are not very high in the 20 to 30 kt range. Flooding concerns are once again high on the list with an additional one to two inches possible with this wave. There may be a temporary clearing Sunday morning where we could see patchy fog in areas that received rainfall the previous evening. Given the scattered nature of the convection, did not feel confident on where to place in the forecast, but it is something to watch. Frontal boundary trailing the exiting waves drapes over the CWA by Sunday afternoon while a shortwave trough lifts across the region. The GFS is the most robust with the upper forcing and therefore precip while the NAM and ECMWF trend more towards convection being scattered. All guidance does center the heaviest rainfall south and west of the area, but still could see some flooding concerns. Sufficient instability with up to 30 kts of 0-6 km bulk shear could allow for a few strong to severe storms. Large hail, damaging winds, and flash flooding would be the main hazards for convection this weekend. Upper pattern stays active next week as a shortwave trough enters the Pacific Northwest, gradually phasing with the broad southwest trough as it lifts towards the central plains. Guidance is in good agreement with the placement of the system, however timing and coverage of convection is uncertain given the warm and moist airmass and limited organized lift aloft. Best chances for seeing perhaps a few stronger storms and heavy rainfall look to be Tuesday-Wednesday as the trough axis nears and a cold front provides focus for organized convection. Cooler and drier air is becoming more apparent by Thursday. && .AVIATION...(For the 18Z TAFS through 18Z Saturday Afternoon) Issued at 1214 PM CDT FRI MAY 27 2016 Scattered thunderstorms will develop this afternoon across the terminals. There may be a window late this afternoon when they may become more numerous. Expect prevailing VFR conditions. However, any thunderstorm moving across the terminal will bring visibilities and ceilings down to MVFR or even IFR during the duration of the thunderstorm. There may also be gusty winds and hail in the stronger storms. The storms should diminish by midnight. && .TOP Watches/Warnings/Advisories...
