What forecasters said that day

The local office's own words before this winter storm warning went out, as it sent them, from the Iowa Environmental Mesonet's archive of National Weather Service text.

NWS North Platte, NE wrote its last area forecast discussion before this winter storm warning went out at Nov 29, 10:31 AM MST, 2 hours 58 minutes earlier.

Area forecast discussion, Nov 29, 10:31 AM MST, 2 hours 58 minutes before
Area Forecast Discussion
National Weather Service North Platte NE
1131 AM CST Thu Nov 29 2018

.SHORT TERM...(Today and tonight)
Issued at 329 AM CST Thu Nov 29 2018

A weak disturbance will trigger some light snow and rain showers
across portions of southwest and central Nebraska through the
Thursday morning hours. Minimal snow accumulations are expected
before precipitation changes over to all rain shortly after sunrise.
Precipitation is expected to move east and diminish Thursday
afternoon. A brief dry period is anticipated on Thursday evening
before the next system approaches from the west. Precipitation from
the next system will arrive across the northwest Sandhills as early
as 1 AM CST before spreading east and south across the rest of the
forecast area.

For temperatures...despite plenty of clouds on Thursday, highs will
rise into the mid to upper 40s for most locations. Thursday low
temperatures will eventually drop into the mid to upper 20s.

.LONG TERM...(Friday through Wednesday)
Issued at 329 AM CST Thu Nov 29 2018

Models continue to advertise a deep cold upper trough moving into
the Central Plains Friday into the weekend. As the upper trough
emerges later Friday it will become negatively tilted. The GFS and
NAM seem too far north with the H5 low center tracking across
Nebraska. Prefer the deeper, farther south ECMWF, UKMET and GFSFV3.
Jet dynamics would tend to support a deeper, farther south solution.
Discussed with WPC, and they agree, with the ECMWF ensemble mean
supporting a deeper southern track. This track and the negative
tilt will allow Gulf moisture to advect northwestward from the
Southern Plains into the Western High Plains Friday into Friday
night. Moisture transport and deep isentropic upglide ramp up
Friday evening and should result in precipitation development
across most of western and north central Nebraska. This should
mostly be in the form of snow as dynamic cooling processes begin
to take hold.

By Saturday morning the upper trough closes off across north
central Kansas, and then moves very slowly northeast into
southeast Nebraska by Saturday afternoon. Saturday night it will
shift eastward slightly into southwest Iowa, where it nearly
stalls as a 150 kt jet rounds the base of the trough across the
southern Rockies into the Southern Plains. During this time a
surface low will deepen to near 985 mb, and will track from
eastern Kansas Saturday morning to southern Iowa Sunday morning.
The slowing of the system will allow the cold moist conveyor to
wrap back west into western and north central Nebraska, with the
potential for heavy snow developing across portions of the area.
This continues to seem most likely across northern Nebraska, where
a Winter Storm Watch is in effect. It does appear though that
decent accumulations could occur all the way south to near the
I-80 corridor. After coordination with surrounding offices, have
expanded the watch some to the south and west of the original
issuance. Will not go all the way south to I-80 corridor at this
time, as confidence decreases significantly in these areas
regarding significant snow accumulation.

Winds during this time will increase from the north, with 850 mb
speeds expected to be around 40 kt. A fairly significant surface
pressure gradient will occur across the our area due to the deep
nature of the surface low. The lack of strong high pressure
building southeast behind the system will keep the gradient from
becoming overly tight. Nevertheless, with such a deep surface low,
wind gusts of over 25 mph are expected. This could lead to some
blowing and drifting snow later Saturday.

Cold temperatures are expected the first half of next week in the
wake of the system as cold air spills south into the region from
Canada. Mainly dry conditions are expected after Monday as
northwest flow aloft develops.

.AVIATION...(For the 18Z TAFS through 18Z Friday afternoon)
Issued at 1131 AM CST Thu Nov 29 2018

An area of rain showers will continue to move east across the
southern Sandhills this afternoon, affecting terminals KLBF and
KBBW. Brief drops in cigs to MVFR are possible, but VFR will be
predominant. A transition to southeast winds tonight will draw
more moisture into the region. Cigs will gradually lower overnight
while fog develops, particularly across southwest and central
Nebraska. IFR cigs/visby are likely from KIML to KLBF to KBBW and
potentially farther north/west to include KOGA, KVTN, and KONL.
