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 Sioux Falls, SD wrote its last area forecast discussion before this river flood warning went out at Jul 4, 6:26 PM CDT, 3 hours 15 minutes earlier.

Area forecast discussion, Jul 4, 6:26 PM CDT, 3 hours 15 minutes before
Area Forecast Discussion
National Weather Service Sioux Falls SD
626 PM CDT Wed Jul 4 2018

.SHORT TERM...(This evening through Thursday)
Issued at 259 PM CDT Wed Jul 4 2018

The 4th of July has certainly been an interesting day weatherwise.
Early morning  MCV tracking across the CWA forced severe convection
over the eastern portions of the forecast area, with continued weak
synoptic lift trailing across the Missouri River valley for much of
the day. The end result has been a general stabilization of the
atmosphere north of this convection, along with cooler temperatures
than expected. Generally, model guidance has proven fairly useless
today with poor initializations across the board, with only the RAP
and the afternoon runs of the HRRR providing some value.

This afternoon and tonight: The greatest severe weather risks are
going to be focused along or south of the Missouri River this
afternoon, as a shortwave tracks northward into the area.  Latest
mesoanalysis suggests MLCAPE values approaching 2000 J/KG south of
the CWA, but overall marginal shear.   Now that the MCV has moved
far enough to the east, we should begin to see 850 mb flow focus
itself across north central Nebraska, where new convection should
form quickly along a convergence axis between Oneill and Ainsworth.
If short term guidance is correct, this should relieve some of the
pressure on ongoing convection in Charles Mix and Bon Homme
counties.  A small scale MCS cluster may develop and move across
northern Nebraska into the evening.   Further north, not as
impressed with rain or convection risks through the evening
festivities.  It's certainly possible the developed stratiform
region of convection further south could clip the I-90 areas, but
those chances are lower now.  The only other area to watch will be
with a frontal boundary dropping southward this evening. Convergence
is minimal, but could see an isolated shower or storm form on this
boundary as it moves south this evening.

While most models are NOT indicating this potential, I do see
some concern for redevelopment of convection after midnight south
of I- 90 as the 850 mb boundary remains planted in the area. There
could be just enough convergence and enhancement of the LLJ to
produce a linger band of moderate rains between Sioux Falls and
Sioux City. Will bump up the QPF amounts in this area, but must
stress this is low confidence on occurring.

Thursday-Thursday night: High pressure will bring cooler
temperatures and drier air southward on Thursday. The 850 MB
boundary will fail to clear the CWA however, and this certainly
could bring the potential for a few daybreak showers and storms into
Friday morning.  Later shifts may need to add this potential into
the forecast.

.LONG TERM...(Thursday night through Wednesday)
Issued at 259 PM CDT Wed Jul 4 2018

Friday-Sunday: Mid-level height rises will bring an increase in
temperatures and humidity back into the region for this weekend.  A
growing 597DM ridge overhead should suppress convection this
weekend. A lone precipitation chance could present itself late
Sunday evening over northern South Dakota and western Minnesota
along a poorly defined front.

Next week:  Medium range guidance seems to suggest that we'll
continue to grow a mid-level ridge over the region, again keeping
precipitation chances on the lower end. Temperatures will trend
above average, with rather oppressive humidity settling into the
region.

.AVIATION...(For the 00Z TAFS through 00Z Thursday evening)
Issued at 618 PM CDT Wed Jul 4 2018

Showers and thunderstorms will persist through the central and
lower MO River corridor into northwestern IA overnight, possibly
impacting KSUX at times. Any threat of showers and storms will end
by Thursday morning, with VFR conditions through the remainder of
the TAF period.
