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 Des Moines, IA wrote its last area forecast discussion before this river flood warning went out at Jun 30, 6:40 PM CDT, 4 hours 25 minutes earlier.

Area forecast discussion, Jun 30, 6:40 PM CDT, 4 hours 25 minutes before

Area Forecast Discussion
National Weather Service Des Moines IA
640 PM CDT Sat Jun 30 2018

.DISCUSSION.../Tonight through Saturday/
Issued at 340 PM CDT Sat Jun 30 2018

Main concern is the next 18 hours as a boundary and decent
shortwave pass through the state. Currently, convection is
developing near the surface front in northern Iowa. Strong
instability exists in the warm sector with MUCapes of 4000-5000
j/kg and Downdraft Capes of 1300-1500. Severe convection is
expected for the next several hours with damaging winds and large
hail the main threat. While a tornado threat does exist, inflow
would need to back more substantially to make this more of a
concern. None the less, a brief spinup remains a possibility given
the impressive Cape values. Heavy rain become the primary threat
with time and this aspect will be covered in the hydro section
below. While the frontal convection continues to eventually press
south and east tonight, there will be some decrease in coverage
and intensity by late evening. However, the main shortwave will
arrive toward daybreak with increased dynamic forcing in the mid
levels across the northern half of the state. This should
reinvigorate convection overnight with another round of heavy
rainfall. Location of this heavy rain will be difficult to
pinpoint as CAMs vary considerably in placement given the previous
convection from the evening. However, the strong forcing be
sufficient to produce convection behind the surface boundary where
flow above the surface will still be supplying plenty of moisture.
Therefore, have continued high pops through the night.

System will pass across the state on Sunday with any remaining
convection confined to the far eastern portions of the state by
late morning. Otherwise, cooler and drier air will make conditions
much more comfortable than the past couple of days. Beyond this
timeframe, the east coast ridge will retrograde across the United
States during the upcoming week. Iowa will be on the extreme south
of the westerlies with temperatures generally above normal and
some threat for convection, although the bulk of it should remain
just north of the state.

&&

.AVIATION.../For the 00Z TAFS through 00Z Sunday evening/
Issued at 637 PM CDT Sat Jun 30 2018

Thunderstorms should be widespread in coverage through the night
across Iowa except the southeast corner. Will keep thunder in TAFs
through the night ranging from VCTS to actual T in TAF. Storms
should end Sunday morning followed by a MVFR ceiling for a few
hours then VFR after 18z.

&&

.HYDROLOGY...
Issued at 340 PM CDT Sat Jun 30 2018

Major concern for the night will be the threat of heavy rainfall.
Plenty of moisture is available with PWATS approaching 2" in many
locations near the boundary. The will be ample moisture transport
and inflow as upper system works across the Plains and toward the
state by Sunday morning. Several rounds of convection can be
expected in portions of northern into central and western Iowa
through 12Z on Sunday. Deep warm cloud layers will also promote
efficiency along with good but not overwhelming updrafts. The WPC
moderate risk outlook is good although some concern that recent
models QPF has sifted slightly SE. Overall rainfall of 1 to 3
inches seems reasonable along with isolated locations possibly up
to 5-6 inches. The recent rainfall, moist soils and river/streams
running at or near capacity all indicate a strong potential for
flash flooding along with renewed and/or aggravated river
flooding. Have continued the flash flood watch and even expanded
to the southeast some to incorporate the new model guidance.
