What forecasters said that day

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

NWS Springfield, MO wrote its last area forecast discussion before this flash flood watch went out at Sep 6, 3:55 AM CDT, 10 minutes earlier.

Area forecast discussion, Sep 6, 3:55 AM CDT, 10 minutes before
Area Forecast Discussion
National Weather Service Springfield MO
355 AM CDT Thu Sep 6 2018

...Flash Flood Watch Friday Afternoon into Saturday Night...

.SHORT TERM...(Today through Saturday Night)
Issued at 325 AM CDT Wed Sep 5 2018

Development of showers and isolated thunderstorms to be the main
short term challenge as the remains of Gordon tracks westward into
Arkansas and a weakening frontal boundary slowly descends into
the forecast area.

SW to NE orientated band of convection has developed from
Joplin/southeast Kansas into central Missouri at 08z...and is
delineated well by GOES 17 air mass RGB. Anticipation is for this
band to diminish northwestward during the morning hours...followed
by increasing convection particularly over the eastern Ozarks this
afternoon as Gordon begins to makes its presence felt.

The center of the tropical system will track west northwest into
central Arkansas today and then curve northward into the vicinity
of Springfield Friday afternoon and exit the east central part of
Missouri toward Sunday morning.

Rainfall coverage and intensity will increase as the circulation
moves into Missouri...prompting the issuance of a flash flood
watch generally along and east of Highway 65 from noon Friday
through midnight Saturday night. It will be important to message
that the widely scattered convection today into early Friday is
not the period in which significant impact is expected so that
awareness is enhanced when the increased rates occur during the
watch period.

Have closely followed WPCs lead in expecting total rainfall to
be in the 4-6 inch range east of Highway 65 with highest amounts
in the Lake of the Ozarks...Lebanon and Rolla areas. Farther west
toward the Kansas border around 2 inches is expected.

.LONG TERM...(Sunday into Thursday)
Issued at 256 PM CDT Wed Sep 5 2018

Gordon's circulation exiting into Illinois will lead to the
rainfall tapering off from southwest to northeast late Saturday
night into Sunday morning.

Decreasing clouds but continued westerly flow will keep
temperatures cool for the start of the work week...followed by a
slow warming trend as an upper ridge rebuilds across the southwest
US.

&&

.AVIATION...(For the 06Z TAFS through 06Z Thursday night)
Issued at 1231 AM CDT Thu Sep 6 2018

SCT SHRA with the possibility of embedded TSRA to be expected
along the Missouri/Kansas border including the KJLN area
overnight. TA band of MVFR over southeast Kansas will advect
toward KJLN though this is expected to stall and retreat back
northwest toward morning.

After diminishing in the morning...scattered convection to resume
Thursday afternoon lasting into Thursday night as moisture from
the remnants of Gordon approach the region. Low level moisture
will however be slower to arrive leading to ceilings remaining VFR
despite the rainfall.

757 PM CDT Wed Sep 5 2018

This Hazardous Weather Outlook is for portions of the Missouri
Ozarks and extreme southeast Kansas.

.DAY ONE...Tonight.

Weather hazards expected...

  Limited flooding risk.
  Limited lightning risk.

DISCUSSION...

  Scattered showers and thunderstorms will continue across the
  area tonight with the better chances over central and western
  Missouri into southeast Kansas, along and west of a line from
  Versailles to Cassville. Cloud to ground lightning and locally
  heavy rain will be possible.

.DAYS TWO THROUGH SEVEN...Thursday through Tuesday.

  The risk of heavy rain with showers and embedded thunderstorms
  will continue late this week into the weekend as a cold front
  becomes stalled out over central Missouri and the remnants of
  tropical system Gordon move into the area from the south. While
  the exact storm track and precipitation amounts will likely
  vary over the next day, there is the potential for heavy
  rainfall which may lead to areas of flooding. At this time the
  heaviest rain is expected to occur Friday night into Saturday.

.SPOTTER INFORMATION STATEMENT...

  Spotter activation will not be needed through tonight.
