$$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 St. Louis, MO wrote its last area forecast discussion before this river flood warning went out at Jul 24, 5:30 AM CDT, 5 hours 48 minutes earlier.
Area forecast discussion, Jul 24, 5:30 AM CDT, 5 hours 48 minutes before
Area Forecast Discussion...Updated Aviation National Weather Service Saint Louis MO 530 AM CDT Mon Jul 24 2017 .SHORT TERM... (Through Late Tonight) Issued at 235 AM CDT Mon Jul 24 2017 Northwest flow aloft prevails over our region early this morning and this favorable setup for surface frontal intrusion did not disappoint, with the main front already through and a TROF located near I-70 that was popping isolated to scattered TSRA earlier tonight. Otherwise, skies were mostly clear with temps slipping into the 60s north of the TROF and in a few spots in the Ozark valleys, with 70s elsewhere. Heights aloft will already be building overhead later today and into tonight and so will essentially close the window for surface fronts and TROFs to easily move thru our region. While the main synoptic front is successfully through, the TROF may not fare as well, with the latest models now placing it over southern MO and far southern IL when the favorable flow to the south ceases. While it is possible the TROF may still pop a random and isolated shower or storm during the morning hours, it is more probable that it will do so during peak heating in the afternoon over the eastern Ozarks and far southern IL and the activity that does develop will likely carry thru into much of the evening. Have added low PoPs for most of the eastern Ozarks and far southern IL for this afternoon and most of tonight. With abundant sunshine for our region today with a diurnal cumulus cloud field forming and NE surface flow, stayed close to MOS temps which looked reasonable but leaned towards the higher numbers. All in all, a seasonable late July day with less humidity than the past week with peak temps from the mid 80s in the north to around 90 for most areas near and south of I-70. Most areas should see clear skies again tonight save southeast MO and far southern IL where, depending on how persistent the convection is along the old TROF boundary, may keep those areas mostly cloudy. Should see widespread min temps in the 60s thanks to this clear skies and light wind setup for most areas, with higher values in the STL heat island. TES .LONG TERM... (Tuesday through Sunday) Issued at 235 AM CDT Mon Jul 24 2017 A progressive upper level trof centered through the northeastern U.S. will maintain a retreating surface high through the Great Lakes region on Tuesday. This surface high will have a strong influence on Tuesday resulting in a quasi-stationary surface front drapped across southern MO into the western TN Valley. A few showers and thunderstorms will be possible in the vicinity of the frontal boundary across southeast MO and southern IL, especially during the afternoon and early evening. Temperatures should be rather seasonable. Wednesday looks like the hottest day of the week and potentially another short-lived period of dangerous levels of heat. The southern Plains upper high will retrograde slightly in response to the beginning of large scale amplification and a short wave trof moving through the mid-upper MS valley region. Despite the slight retrogression of the upper high, the low levels will be marked by the return of south to southwesterly flow and rising lower tropospheric temps as the warm front retreats back to the north/northeast. Highs should be well into the 90s with peak afternoon heat index values from 103-110. The models vary some on the strength and position of the short wave and associated cold front moving through the mid/upper MS Valley into the OH Valley in the late Wednesday-Thursday time frame. The NAM is the big outlier and appears too strong and a bit too fast. The GFS and ECMWF are fairly close bringing the cold front into northern MO/central IL late Wednesday night into early Thursday morning and through the entire CWA by late Thursday evening. The front should be accompanied by showers and thunderstorms as it progresses through the area. Surface high pressure and much cooler and drier air will then dominate from Friday through next weekend as large scale amplification proceeds and an upper trof sharpens over the eastern U.S.. Glass && .AVIATION... (For the 12z TAFs through 12z Tuesday Morning) Issued at 530 AM CDT Mon Jul 24 2017 VFR conditions, light northeasterly surface winds, and dry weather will prevail at the TAF sites thru the valid period.
