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 Fort Worth, TX wrote its last area forecast discussion before this river flood warning went out at Aug 14, 6:42 PM CDT, 1 hour 41 minutes earlier.

Area forecast discussion, Aug 14, 6:42 PM CDT, 1 hour 41 minutes before
Area Forecast Discussion...UPDATED
National Weather Service Fort Worth TX
642 PM CDT Mon Aug 14 2017

.AVIATION...
VFR conditions will prevail at the Metroplex TAF sites through
06z Wednesday. There may be a few hours of MVFR ceilings at Waco
as indicated by the TEMPO BKN015 between 11 and 15z. South winds
at 6 to 9 knots tonight will increase to 12 to 15 knots Tuesday
morning.

.SHORT TERM... /Issued 343 PM CDT Mon Aug 14 2017/
/Tonight through Tuesday Night/

Afternoon satellite imagery shows some clearing in the wake of
earlier morning convection across a good portion of North Texas
with the exception of a narrow band of thicker mid level cloud
cover right across the central part of the CWA. This is associated
with a narrow ribbon of much higher 800-700mb RH that is streaming
across the area from the west. At the surface, temperatures have
warmed into the mid 90s where the sun has come out and remain in
the mid to upper 80s under thicker cloud cover. There still
remains an area of localized stronger surface convergence from
near Abilene eastward to Mineral Wells. Over the last couple of
hours, there has been an uptick in convective activity, likely
aided by some weak forcing aloft in the westerly flow. Much of
this activity is expected to remain across the far western
counties and we'll keep some 20% PoPs out there through the late
evening. Otherwise, skies should be partly cloudy overnight will
generally low rain chances.

On Tuesday, we will have a little more influence from shortwave
ridging as a trough deepens over the western U.S. This will result
in strengthening southerly flow and likely will limit rain chances
to 10% or less across the region. Tomorrow night, as the upper
forcing spreads into west Texas, a complex of showers and
thunderstorms is expected to develop over the Panhandle southward.
This complex will likely move northeast with time and may impact
some of our areas west of I-35, particularly our northwest
counties. The upper flow won't be quite as favorable for the
complex of storms to move across the entire area.

.LONG TERM...  /Issued 343 PM CDT Mon Aug 14 2017/
/Wednesday through Monday/

A somewhat unsettled flow will continue for our area mid week as
a broad trough sits over the western CONUS and a series of
impulses move overhead in southwest flow. Will likely see some
lingering rain/storms to start off the day Wednesday and
additional storm chances Wednesday night into Thursday morning,
with higher chances over our northern counties. Temperatures on
Wednesday and Thursday will be near seasonal norms for highs and
slightly warmer for lows due to the expected overnight cloud
cover.

By Thursday, the upper ridge that has been parked over the
Southeast U.S. should begin shifting westward...far enough to
notice a drop in rain chances and an increase in temperatures
across North and Central Texas for the end of the work week into
the weekend.
