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 Columbia, SC wrote its last area forecast discussion before this river flood warning went out at Nov 15, 1:35 PM EST, 30 minutes earlier.

Area forecast discussion, Nov 15, 1:35 PM EST, 30 minutes before
Area Forecast Discussion
National Weather Service Columbia SC
135 PM EST Thu Nov 15 2018

.SYNOPSIS...
Low pressure will continue lifting farther northeast of the
forecast area. High pressure will build into the area in its
wake. This dry air mass will dominate over the weekend.

&&

.NEAR TERM /THROUGH TONIGHT/...
The significant rain has lifting north of the forecast area.
Gradual drying will occur as low pressure lifts farther north
and high pressure builds into the area from the west. Expect
clearing tonight. It will be cold. There is uncertainty with the
temperature forecast because boundary layer wind may hold up
temperatures. However, much of the guidance indicates lows 30 to
35 and the air mass upstream is very cold. We have issued a
freeze warning for all but the north and northwest sections
where it has already been below freezing and the growing season
has ended.

&&

.SHORT TERM /FRIDAY THROUGH SATURDAY/...
Cool dry high pressure will continue building into the region
Friday through Saturday. Expect mostly clear conditions with
seasonably cool temperatures. Temperatures late Friday night
into early Saturday will fall into the lower to middle 30s
across the Midlands and CSRA. Winds are expected to near calm
with good radiational conditions. There is the possibility of
widespread frost across the area.

&&

.LONG TERM /SATURDAY NIGHT THROUGH THURSDAY/...
The weather pattern will take a break across the Southeast for
the remainder of the weekend into next week. Cool high pressure
will dominate the weather across the region through Sunday. A
reinforcing cold front that will cross the area Sunday night
into Monday will continue the trend of seasonably cool
conditions for daytime highs and overnight lows. There is only
limited moisture and not expecting any chance for rain.

Weak dry high pressure providing fair and cool weather
Saturday/Sat nt. A cold front, with limited moisture to work
with, will approach from the NW Sunday and pass through Monday,
reinforcing fair and cool conditions thru Tue/Wed. High
temperatures will range in the low/mid 60s with overnight lows
in the upper 30s to middle 40s.

&&

.AVIATION /19Z THURSDAY THROUGH TUESDAY/...
Expect mainly MVFR conditions during the rest of this afternoon
with a return to VFR tonight.

Wrap-around moisture associated with low pressure lifting north
of the region should help maintain mainly MVFR ceilings during
the rest of this afternoon. Areas of light rain will continue
to diminish form south to north. Expect clearing tonight. Drying
and continued mixing should help prevent fog tonight despite
the wet ground from the rain event.

The MAV and MET MOS support wind northwest to west mainly
around 10 knots.

EXTENDED AVIATION OUTLOOK...No significant impacts expected at
this time.

&&

.HYDROLOGY...
Widespread rainfall amounts of 2 to 3 inches with some areas
as high as 4 to 5 inches have produced saturated soils and
significant rises on many of the area rivers and streams.
This is producing minor to moderate flooding on many of the
area rivers. Flooding will continue on the Congaree River and
Pee Dee River through the weekend and into early next week.
