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 Mobile, AL wrote its last area forecast discussion before this river flood warning went out at Dec 7, 6:39 AM CST, 3 hours 51 minutes earlier.

Area forecast discussion, Dec 7, 6:39 AM CST, 3 hours 51 minutes before
Area Forecast Discussion...UPDATED
National Weather Service Mobile AL
639 AM CST Fri Dec 7 2018

.DISCUSSION...Updated for latest aviation discussion below.

&&

.AVIATION...
12Z issuance...VFR conditions can be expected through much of the
period. Ceilings will lower early Saturday morning with rain
chances increasing from the west. /13

&&

.PREV DISCUSSION... /issued 456 AM CST Fri Dec 7 2018/

NEAR TERM /Now Through Friday night/...Easterly flow will increase today
as sfc high pressure moves east and an area of low pressure
approaches from the west. Ahead of the low, most areas will remain
dry today with only small rain chances across far northwestern area
this afternoon. As the low moves east tonight and a warm front
begins to lift northward across the northern Gulf, rain chances will
increase from west to east and also near the warm front over the
northern Gulf. The heavy rain is expected to remain west of the area
through tonight. Highs today will range for the mid 50s inland to
upper 50s along the coast. Lows tonight will range from the low to
mid 40s inland to low 50s along the coast. /13

SHORT TERM /Saturday Through Sunday night/...Widespread rainfall
spreads from west to east across the region Saturday through
Saturday night as a surface low pressure system moves eastward
along the coast from LA into the Western FL panhandle.

Deep layer moisture, with precipitable water values consistently
advertised by the GFS to climb to around two inches, coupled with
large scale forcing for ascent should lead to periods of heavy
rainfall. Widespread rainfall totals of 2 to 4 inches with
isolated totals as high as 6 inches remain possible. Current
trends indicate that the heaviest rainfall will fall over
Southeast Mississippi during the late morning hours tapering off
during the early evening hours, Alabama counties West of the I-65
corridor during the afternoon through early evening and Western
Florida Panhandle counties and Alabama counties East of the I-65
corridor mid to late afternoon into the late evening hours.

Concerns for potential flooding remain especially over the area
southeast of a Mobile to Andalusia line due to last weeks heavy
rains last week keeping the soils in this area relatively moist.
Heavy rain fall occurring within short period of time is possible
which could create areas of flash flooding. Furthermore,
widespread rainfalls of 4 inches could lead to minor and possibly
moderate river flooding in this area. A Flash Flood Watch may
be issued for this area in the next 12 hours. Based on the
current forecast track of the surface low, a marginal severe
threat will exist along the coast just ahead of the surface low
in the warm sector. The primary risks being brief tornadoes and
damaging straight line winds Saturday and Saturday night.

A high risk of rip currents will exist along area Gulf beaches
from Friday night through Sunday night. High surf, and minor
coastal flooding will also be possible Saturday afternoon into
Saturday night.

As the region remains under the base of the upper level trough, a
few sprinkles and a lingering chance of some light rain will
continue Sunday through Sunday evening/night time frame. /08

LONG TERM /Monday Through Thursday/...In the wake of the
departing low pressure system, dry northwest flow will develop
over the central Gulf Coast region with temperatures trending
cooler than climatological norms through Tuesday night.
Temperatures moderate to near normal Wednesday as the next area of
low pressure moves into the Mississippi Valley bringing with it a
a chance of showers on Thursday. /08

MARINE...Easterly winds and seas will begin to build late this
afternoon through early Saturday, becoming south by Saturday
afternoon, ahead of a developing surface low approaching from the
west. A strong northwesterly flow is expected in the wake of a
frontal passage Sunday through early next week. /13
