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 La Crosse, WI wrote its last area forecast discussion before this river flood warning went out at Sep 4, 12:26 AM CDT, 37 minutes earlier.
Area forecast discussion, Sep 4, 12:26 AM CDT, 37 minutes before
Area Forecast Discussion National Weather Service La Crosse WI 1226 AM CDT Tue Sep 4 2018 .SHORT TERM...(This evening through Tuesday) Issued at 305 PM CDT Mon Sep 3 2018 Heavy rain is the main concern through Tuesday. Southwest flow aloft persists on the periphery of a broad mid level ridge across the Mid-Atlantic States. Deep southerly flow has helped maintain an anomalously moist airmass across the area with pwats nearing 2 inches. Showers and isolated storms have continued to develop today with the approach of an upper level disturbance. Expect this trend to continue this evening and tonight as 925-850 mb moisture transport and the low-level jet strengthen with a warm front lifting north. The RAP/NAM both suggest the nose of the strongest low-level moisture transport focusing northeastward from NE IA/WC WI eventually up into NE WI. Some of the CAM solutions have indicated a few waves of showers/storms lifting north during this time. With soils very saturated across parts of the area, any rainfall poses a concern, and much like the past few days, rainfall rates over an inch/hr are possible in stronger storms. Confidence was not high enough at this time for a Flash Flood Watch for tonight given the expected progressive nature of the convection in areas most impacted by heavy rains the past week. Still, this will bear close watching through the evening/overnight. With the warm front lifting north, much of the area may get a break in the action for a time on Tuesday with the focus shifting farther northwest towards an approaching cold front/upper trough from the west. The boundary will sag south from northeast MN southwest towards northwest IA by the afternoon. MLCAPE could reach 1000-2000 J/kg in the afternoon with 30-40 kts of deep layer shear. Lapse rates will be weak given the very humid environment, but the environment could support locally strong winds, and a low risk of hail with the strongest storms. The main threat will be heavy rain. .LONG TERM...(Tuesday night through Monday) Issued at 305 PM CDT Mon Sep 3 2018 On Tuesday night and Wednesday morning, the 03.12z models continue into indicate that a significant rain event will occur across parts of the forecast area. Like the past couple of days, the highest probabilities look to be from north-central Iowa northeast through south-central and southeast Minnesota, west-central Wisconsin, and north-central and northeast Wisconsin. Precipitable water values will be around 2.25 inches and warm cloud layer depths of 4 to 4.5 km. The convergence across the region will be enhanced as a cold front move slowly southeast through the region. During the evening, a 40 knot 850 mb jet will be impinging onto this front and then gradually become parallel with this front during the overnight. Expect the heaviest rain to fall from the evening to around 4 AM Wednesday. Hourly rainfalls of 2 to 3 inches will be possible during this time frame. These rainfall amounts will result in flash flooding. Considered issuing a Flash Flood Watch for this time period. However, with the threat of heavy rain tonight, opted not to go with one at this time. Rainfall from Tuesday night into Wednesday morning will likely be in the 3 to 5 inch range with locally higher amounts will possible. In the wake of this, slightly cooler and much drier air will move into the region. High temperatures will range from the upper 60s to mid 70s. From Friday night into Saturday night, the potential remnants of tropical storm Gordon may move through the Mid Mississippi River and Ohio River valleys and southern Great Lakes. The extended models continue to disagree on the northern extent of this moisture and the speed of the system, so just stayed with a blend. && .AVIATION...(For the 06Z TAFS through 06Z Tuesday night) Issued at 1226 AM CDT Tue Sep 4 2018 Showers and storms should mostly stay south of LSE/RST the remainder of the night, with current IFR conditions for both sites gradually improving through sunrise. However, will have to watch the potential for RST to develop some fog if (big *if*) skies can clear enough, though there is some fog developing south of that location at this early morning hour. A return to VFR conditions should make an appearance for a time Tuesday mid morning into early afternoon, with additional showers and storms then developing into the afternoon and evening hours. In fact, it appears quite likely that a period of heavy rain and storms will impact both RST and eventually LSE into Tuesday evening, when IFR conditions will be possible. && .HYDROLOGY... Issued at 305 PM CDT Mon Sep 3 2018 Periods of heavy rain are expected into Wednesday morning. Locally heavy rain is possible tonight as a warm front lifts northward. Given the high precipitable water values, any storms will be efficient rain producers with rain rates up to 2 inches/hr possible. If any storms train over areas that have received heavy rains over the past week, localized flooding could develop The highest potential for additional heavy rains and possible flash flooding, remains focused on the later Tuesday afternoon and Tuesday night period.The next cold front will be advancing into the area with strong moisture transport focused into the front. An axis of high precipitable waters, at and above 2 inches, will reside ahead of the front. Strong linear forcing signal with the approaching front, with the sfc-mid level flow parallel to the front/forcing. The concern is where will the strongest forcing/lift/training set up to produce a band of heavy/excessive rains. Consensus at this time is from north-central IA to NE WI, cutting across the NW half of the fcst area. Much of the landscape is saturated from rains of the past week. Any additional heavy rains have the potential to quickly producing runoff and rises/flooding on area rivers and streams. A flash flood watch is likely to be needed for some portion of the area Tue night, but uncertainty remains on the exact location Flooding continues along parts of the Kickapoo River and for now, levels continue to go down. Minor flooding is also occurring on parts of the Turkey River. See the latest flood statements for more details. && .ARX WATCHES/WARNINGS/ADVISORIES... WI...None. MN...None.

Heavy rain is possible with most thunderstorms, with the potential for localized flooding. .DAYS TWO THROUGH SEVEN...Tuesday through Sunday More showers and storms are expected mainly Tuesday afternoon into Wednesday morning. This round of storms could bring more widespread heavy rains to the area, with several inches of accumulation possible. With wet soils unable to hold much more rain, heavy rainfall would likely result in localized to widespread flooding. A few stronger storms with hail and gusty winds are also possible Tuesday afternoon and evening. After Wednesday, smaller shower and storm chances are generally confined to sections of northeast Iowa and southwest Wisconsin. .SPOTTER INFORMATION STATEMENT...
