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 May 11, 6:48 PM CDT, 1 hour 27 minutes earlier.

Area forecast discussion, May 11, 6:48 PM CDT, 1 hour 27 minutes before

Area Forecast Discussion
National Weather Service Wichita KS
648 PM CDT Thu May 11 2017

.SHORT TERM...(This evening through Sunday night)
Issued at 221 PM CDT Thu May 11 2017

Short term guidance is fairly similar in showing an west-east band
of mid-level convergence/frontogenesis over the southern Flint Hills
and southeast Kansas into the early evening as the closed translates
east across northern Oklahoma. Coincident with the higher PWAT values
and northern edge of the better instability will support a heavy
rainfall/flash flooding threat even after the severe risk begins
to diminish during the evening. The upper low will turn to more
of a southeast movement later tonight into Friday as it moves into
the Ozarks/Arkansas. A general clearing and drying out trend is
expected to commence on Friday with dry weather and a warming
trend through the upcoming weekend. Upper ridging will reside
across the central Conus by Saturday as a shortwave lifts out over
the Rockies late in the day within the mean upper longwave across
the far West Conus. Temperatures will continue to warm within the
mid and lower troposphere with just a slight dampening of the
mean ridge aloft by Sunday across the area.

Darmofal

.LONG TERM...(Monday through Thursday)
Issued at 221 PM CDT Thu May 11 2017

The weather pattern looks to turn to a more classic Spring or May
regime much of next week. An axis of low level moisture is expected
to increase in the persistent southerly flow with more of a classic
surface dry-line setting up across western into central Kansas. A
fairly consistent signal exists in the medium range in showing a
decent upper shortwave trof lifting out across the Plains by late
Tuesday for perhaps a more organized risk for storms and even
severe weather. The evolving upper low over the western CONUS
should then affect the area by late again on Thursday.

KED

.AVIATION...(For the 00Z TAFS through 00Z Friday evening)
Issued at 637 PM CDT Thu May 11 2017

Main Hazards: Thunderstorms and associated IFR/MVFR this evening
in southeast Kansas.

An upper low will continue to pivot slowly southeastward across
Oklahoma tonight. An axis of thunderstorms, with locally intense
rainfall rates and visibility restrictions will affect the ICT and
CNU terminals this evening on the north side of the upper low
circulation. MVFR/IFR visibilities/ceilings will be associated
with this storm activity. Stratus will likely linger in
southeastern Kansas overnight, given low-level cyclonic curvature
and high boundary layer moisture.

Otherwise, northerly winds will gradually bring drier air and
clearing from north to south overnight into Friday.
